Abstract (en)
A hydrofoil (100) for a boat (110) comprises a first section (102) for providing a first hydrodynamic force and a second section (104) for providing a second hydrodynamic force. The hydrofoil (100) is connectable to a boat (110) such that the first section (102) extends generally downwards away from a hull (108) of the boat (110) and towards the centreline (112) of the boat (110) and the second section (104) extends under the first section (102) and generally away from the centreline (112) of the boat (110). The hydrofoil (100) can provide stable boat ride height, good boat stability, and increased lift for a given width of hydrofoil (100).
