Forces view showing aerodynamic and hydrodynamic force vectors. This also shows a blue outline where the boat touches the water to visualize the wetted surface area of the hull. This is handy for tuning the hull shape to get it really flying.

Can I ask you guys which engine sound you prefer? The red boat or the blue boat? Neither one is really a set of recordings from a 2-stroke outboard, but these are my only options right now so it'll have to be one or the other.

I kinda liked Blue

Red

Thanks, guys. How about this one? Fresh sample from the audio guy:

Keep in mind this is supposed to be an outboard at the moment. If I can get to offshore boats at some point I'll use the big, burly V8 (the old red boat).

increase the pitch with rpm..2 strokes have more treble under full song.

Does it sound like it's running too slow to you? This is recorded data and supposedly matched to the real engine rpm.

Keep in mind this is running less than 6000 rpm here...
