<DIV><FONT face=Arial>You are correct, Jim!!! The smoother the hull, the
more "water like" it is, thus creating more surface to contact the
water. That is why a boat will travel faster with a little ripple on the
water than on a dead calm day.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV> Dave that's same as I have been told, when I bass fished they
always said not to polish the hull as it will be slower, their reason was
that the rougher surface would create air bubbles to make a buffer to the
water = less drag.</DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=703325402-04122005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Seems I remember a few years ago that some of the America's Cup
boats found that by using a textured surface material on the hulls that
drag was actually reduced compared to a very slick surface. My memory is
fading fast but as I remember the textured surface caused the water
molecules to release easier than from a slick
surface.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is too quiet. Suppose a person has a
9.5 lb. primed wide body plane and he stiples the fuse. with ceiling
paint(popcorn texture), then he overcoats the stiples
with PPG for a coloring. The idea would be to make a draggy fuse
with slower down lines. An increase in power would be necessary
because of the extra drag, we have plenty of power now,so that
shouldn't be a problem. The wings, stab, and verticle would be
left clean. I think it would work. Also you would not have to
rub and polish the finish. Whaddaya think?</FONT></DIV>
