Hull air induction?
 

Been thinking about this for a while now. Has anyone ever tried it with a conventional non step v hull? Where would you have the aeration points in the hull bottom? Would it change the handling?

Would be interesting to try, but consider that the aeration points (holes) in the bottom will more than likely create drag by disrupting laminar flow, therefore the benefit of the aeration would have to overcome the drag, plus some, to be of benefit?

Aeration points would have to be from the planing wetted surface back and located dependant on whether their purpose is to increase cruise, top speed, or both, again keeping in mind the benefit has to overcome the increased drag.

Aeration of the bottom of the boat would undoubtedly affected handling in some form, by breaking surface tension between the bottom of the boat and the water. It is just a question of how much so, and whether it will be negatively impacted?

The nice thing about air induction being introduced into the running surface mean that it will likely be able to be turned off for turning.

Also along the same lines pertaining to stepped hills and ill handling couldn't you simply run a rudder that's piggy backed off of the drives running on the centerline of a twin boat help spin outs with nearly no drag?
