For a 90 size boat, what is the general distance from the water's surface to the bottom of the tub?
Thanks in advance.

Don:Marty ,
Could you expand on the slope up on the rear of the tub keeping the rear of the boat down. Great topic!

Tony:Marty is there a ballpark formula or percentage that you use for CG on riggers?

Really simple, it creates a low pressure area that keeps the rear of the boat down on the water. The Indy Cars use this throughout the bottom of their cars to suck the car down. It just works in a specific area with out boats. I have always wondered why the outboard guys didn't use this to keep their tunnels on the water.
Eagles are 50-50. I think JAE is 60-40.Tony:Marty is there a ballpark formula or percentage that you use for CG on riggers?
Too many variables to have any type of ballpark. You would have to specify a lot of things in order to be able to answer your question. It is really a package. You can see the main boats and how they vary in all aspects. The Eagle and the JAE have a rearward weight and the Crapshooter and the Roadrunner a more mid CG. Many things make all work well.
