Hi Joe,
you are digressing somewhat with propulsion details mixed in with hull design. The reason for my omission of the type XXIII in my previous comment about the teardrop hull is: This one does not belong into this group, since it is basically a large diameter pipe with another 3/4 pipe welded below it and the ends slimmed out. Not exactly a teardrop, if you get my drift. RB
