Hydrofoil Supported Ocean Cat

Twin Vee, the Number One selling brand of power catamarans, has just raised the bar, yet again, with the introduction of their new Hydrofoil Supported 35’ Catamaran. This is a new generation and technological advancement in the performance and ride that is unsurpassed on the water today!

Twin Vee will be offering a unique opportunity for buyers to choose between a premium model with quality second to none, and a more affordable model to fit limited budgets. These Hydrofoil Supported Catamarans (HYSUCAT FOILS) amplify the many advantages of existing catamaran hull forms such as:

  • Reduced running resistance for a given speed by as much as 40%. This advantage can be exploited by lowering he horsepower required to give you a lower cost of engines and using less fuel while still delivering exceptional speed.

  • Improved ride quality in rough seas due to the motion damping effect of Hydrofoils.

  • A drier, softer ride because of its lift and its running on the tops of the waves thereby reducing the disturbance of the water and leaving less wake.

Roger Dunshee, the CEO of Twin Vee Catamarans, Inc., explains how it all works.

“The New Twin Vee 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 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 Hydrofoil is 20:1. Smaller trim Hydrofoils are also fitted on the inside of the catamaran tunnel near the transom. These smaller foils plan 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 full submerged. They do not protrude below the hulls nor are they wider than the tunnel beam.

Both Twin Vee models 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.
