I found myself surfing some videos about hydrofoils like those on the America's Cup sailboats. I eventually found my way to a website about a hydrofoil that could be mounted between the twin hulls of a powered catamaran style boat. It looks like an inverted T that attaches to the bottom of the boat and to each hull. It got me thinking about whether such a device might work wonders on a two log pontoon boat. .... So has anyone ever heard of such a device being tried on a pontoon boat? (I don't need to hear about the WaterGlide.) ... If one were to build such a device, how would you know where to mount it (fore and aft)? Acutal knowledge and wild speculation are both welcome. But please indicate which you are offering.
