  • Whilst over in the US, we had the honour of walking through the 7 key elements that make a great hull design with boating expert, Eric Sorenson.
    The 7 elements can be used to examine any boats hull design, enabling you to predict how that boat will respond, handle and perform in any sea state.
    From the flare of the bow, to the deadrise, right through to the shape of the keel, Eric explains how each element is engineered specifically to give stability, buoyancy, acceleration and resistance, in order to provide an overall smoother experience at sea.
    This run-through is a detailed look behind the curtain at what makes a Grady-White so special and regarded as the best running boat in the world.

    I can listen to Eric Sorensen all day ... I'm a real fan. Every time he contributes to (or puts out) a video I learn an immense amount. Nice to see him working with G-W on this and other instructional videos. Keep up the fine work, Eric.

    Grady's do handle the seas off NJ very well. The 33 Marlin's are typically what I've experienced. A 26 Regulator is as good or better IMO. The biggest issue with GW's is access to components like bilge pumps, fuel tank accessories, batteries, raw water pumps, etc... but that's true for these style of boats in general. I have a 27 May-craft which has a pilothouse towards the bow of the boat and it will beat you up compared to a GW. Great video on hull design, especially the deadrise explanation. I'm that guy that only asks about the stern deadrise and never stopped to consider the midship deadrise.

    To Eric Sorensen: I just saw your presentation, filled with experience and knowledge. It was excellent, BUT, I also design and build very nice hulls for commercial fishing, recreation, and for comfort in rough seas. But I have another excellent feature or two which I don't see on any boats I observed/experienced which I know you will find very interesting? I commercially fished the North Atlantic 1997-1992, and was disappointed how slow todays hulls go to and from the fishbanks. They take more time going and returning then they spend fishing. I left fishing to become a P. Eng., but I never did leave my desire to produce a most efficient boat.
    I spent many years trying to get more speed, more comfort and least HP installed, and I did run alongside your Grady White off Vancouver, B. C. in my 25' hull, using a single Yamaha 200 . We both ran side-by-side in some chop, for several miles to the fishing grounds. We did not test who was fastest. They were my very good friends.
    I would like to share some items you did not cover in your great presentation. I learned some new info from your presentation also.
    May I ask if we could upgrade our knowledge so you may possibly consider use of what I have. I'm getting old now, and trying to make my design known to designers and builders.
    My 36' fishing boat with 270 Hp Gas 403 Olds Marine at 4600 revs, gave a 35 MPH speed in SW 15-20 MPH chop. It also went airborne off a 6-8' wave when I tried to outrun an increasing storm. It landed so smoothly, that there was very little impact.
    I am certain you, like me, love to run smoothly in rough stuff,using much less HP. Your article heading SEVEN SECRETS, caught my attention, since I also have quite impressive secrets you will ge surprised to know.
    Possible you know McKesson's presentation on High Speed Cargo Ship Trends 1996. He liked what I was doing, and what could possibly improve faster ship designs while reducing power consumption?
    I have a 5.86' model which was pull tested to 12-14 MPH , from my 36' hull mentioned above. You know well for my 14,500 lb hull with 270HP , what that could mean. Your Grady White hulls are very impressive and well known, and proven. My 36' hull runs with an attitude of about 2 degrees above waterline.

  • @davidkirksey8521

    I am surprised nothing was said about weight, Gradys tend to be heavier and I have to believe that weight helps in rough seas.
