High-Speed Small Craft, DuCane

 

  (Out of print)

Cdr. Peter DuCane's book, "High-Speed Small Craft," is a classic book on the theory of high speed boats, including hydrofoils and hovercraft. Some of the theory in this book is a bit dated, but much of it holds up surprisingly well thirty years after its last revision. This is a book that should grace the reference library of any high-speed boat designer.

The Fourth Edition includes a good, elementary mathematical model for a hydrofoil.
