Hull Design for PEP Students Seeking Speed

Overview:

Join us for an exciting webinar led by a former PEP competitor from URI who now holds a Ph.D. in Ocean Engineering, Alexei Sondergeld. In this session, you’ll dive into the science of fast bows, explore how efficient sterns cut drag, and compare different hull shapes that can give you the edge in racing. Whether you’re fine-tuning your design or just starting out, this is your chance to learn from someone who’s been in your shoes and now studies performance at the highest level. Don’t miss this opportunity to boost your team’s design skills—sign up today to reserve your spot!

What You’ll Learn:

• Hull options for racing craft.
• Shapes and design techniques for bows & sterns designed for racing.

Whether you're building for competition or innovation, this session will help you design hulls that minimize resistance and maximize speed on the water.

PEP26 students fiberglassing, machining, or building with plywood can use these designs to design an efficient, speedy hull.
