Hi & I guess this is directed at Jimboat,
Can anyone explain the relationship between prop centre of thrust, distance from transom & distance/height from static CofG. Don't want to get into centre of lift as Jimboat has already explained how much this moves depending on hull attitude.
I think I am looking for a better understanding of the effects of positioning of the prop in relation to the other 2 on handling. What positive and negatives have people witnessed.
In model sense I guess this can be addressed as drive dog to transon (sponsons) and transom inset (engine) V static CofG in relation to sponsons.
Grim, JD, Jimboat, anyone want a shot at this.
GT ???
