A new generation and technological advancement in performance and ride that is unsurpassed on the water marks the debut of the Twin Vee 35’ Hydrofoil Supported Catamaran at the 2012 Miami International Boat Show February 17-20. More than two million dollars has gone into the development of this revolutionary high performance Twin Vee Catamaran.
According to Roger Dunshee, founder, Twin Vee Catamarans, Inc., “The new Twin Vee 35’ Hydrofoil Supported Catamaran features a main Hydrofoil fitted between the catamaran hulls that act like any classic foil operating in a fluid medium – the top surface generates a low pressure region, the lower surface a higher pressure region and the mass of water flowing past the foil is deflected downwards.” The result of the pressure differential is lift, generated far more efficiently that the hull planning surfaces are able to do on their own. “Typically, the lift/drag radio of a planning hull is 4:1 while that of a Twin Vee Hydrofoil Supported Catamaran is 20:1. Smaller trim Hydrofoils are also fitted on the inside of the catamaran tunnel near the transom,” added Dunshee.
These smaller foils play an important role in the automatic longitudinal trim stabilization of the hull in that as they approach the water surface in the tunnel, the bow trims down, their lift decreased (due to the free-surface effects) and then, due to lift reduction, the transom trims back down again. “Unlike many other foils, these Hydrofoils are protectively fitted between the catamaran hulls and mounted as deep as possible to keep them running fully submerged. They do not protrude below the hulls nor are they wider than the tunnel beam,” said Dunshee.
The Twin Vee Hydrofoil Supported Catamaran model will initially be offered in a luxury Mamba version and a more economical Twin Vee version. “Both of these new Twin Vee Hydrofoil Supported Catamarans are the perfect fusion of open-water performance, ride and fishability. They are serious fishing machines! Twin Vee has always been known for their exceptional value and ride and this new 35’ will greatly enhance that reputation,” concluded Dunshee.
Specifications for the new Twin Vee Hydrofoil Supported Catamarans include: Length 35’2”, Beam 10’9”, Draft 22”, Fuel Capacity 300 gallons, and Max Speed 58 mph with Twin Suzuki 300hp outboards.
