Building the 'Hotkurl'
*edited 25 Feb 2013 17:37
Here are the three internal panels for the 10'5" Hotkurl. Three layers are used rather than the usual two, so that they can be made thinner, this allows them to be bent more easily to the required rocker and the bottom concave.
The central panel has frames and blocking running athwartships. Since the central panel is on the neutral axis, fore and aft orientation is not necessary for strength.

how do you determine how much rocker is required and where that rocker begins and what effect does that rocker have on the boards performance?
We contact Winston Peters and ask him which curve to use.
It's a big question you are asking. This planshape I've done in similar lengths with a wide variety of rocker curves, from just over an inch nose and tail on a 9 footer to 7 inches as on this board which is 10'5".
The higher rockered versions have a tunnel fin with a slight angle of lift which effectively lowers the tail rocker.

lol ok so in essence the lower tail rocker lifts the nose end out of the water which reduces drag thus increasing speed and stability?
this board seems like it is made for waiwhakaiho

Quite so, it's an exceptionally woody sort of word.

On the Nautical theme I always enjoyed the phrases " STARBOARD!!!!!" and "BUOY ROOM!!!!" they are gleefully robust.

Well the nose gets the water flow first, and that means that most of the lift is produced there. Planing hulls have a high pressure area at the leading edge of the wetted surface area and pressure ( and lift) drop off dramatically from there. Lift from the nose reduces the amount of board in the water as speed increases,this reduces drag compared to what it would be if the area didn't reduce.
By putting a tunnel on the tail we get a higher pressure area and more lift in the tail, because the tunnel gets fresh water flow.

I dont need to make positive and insightful contributions now that Roy owned you and you are...
I was going to add "sit boo boo sit..." but that would have stretched my post past one line...
what ever drugleet said, it must have been true.
face it batts. its got nothing to do with need. you simply can't.
My role here is minimal and white like a dentists waiting room.
Why hotkurl? It's not akin to your usual naming conventions

Hey at least a hammock is useful, not only can you sleep in it it can be used for catching fish.
missing the point we are discussing roys sellout behaviour not whether a hammock is useful enough, you farkin five year old.
Hey Im just trying to help Roy feed this family with a new business venture ie Hammock making... not playing juvenile name calling games.
give him 10 percent of your salary...and please sit down.
I pay my Taxes to the government they pay him... not a cent more from me. But I would buy a handcrafted hammock off him.

Roger's a good fellow, and by the way I have been doing those tear drop shapes since 1998.
Hotcurl usually refers to a finless board with deep v in the tail,but who gives a fark?
Plagiarism lol yeah like all those chaps calling their board 'thrusters' or 'fish' wooo that's a heavy accusation man I'm gutted.

You are neglecting your history Master Batt, neither of us coined the term.
Roger's one of the few shapers whose work I find interesting, actually I can't think of another one offhand.

Well he's welcome to it, it's a good one.

The grammar is correct, perhaps you are confusing the use of slang with grammar issues.
Ironically your grammar in the post above is not correct, since you use no capital letter at the start of the sentence and the sentence has no subject or verb.

I merely reported his appalling behaviour, whereby he entered a competition which he was head judge of, and then called his own heat from the judges stand without warning when he saw a suitable peak down the beach.
He then reported that he felt 'warm fuzzies' after winning.

That was sarcasm obviously and no, 'Ratso' didn't invent the name...it seems that all this went over your head... the closest you've been to overhead anything.

at least I am consistent, unlike you. internet forums originally had guidelines suggesting not to use capitals when posting on bulletin boards, so...forget grammar, learn internet etiquette before preaching to me hypocrite.
You are the one b1tching about my grammar, when it's actually correct.. so you are now hoist, as they say, by your own petard.
