Vessel for operating on a body of water, comprising an aft foil for generating a thrust force and adjustment means for adjusting an angle of incidence of the aft foil

摘要

The invention relates to a vessel (1) comprising a hull (2) for non-planing operation, during operation displaying a waterline (3) and having a forward direction in a horizontal plane (4) with a forward portion, an aft portion (5), and a central portion, the aft portion having a smaller water displacement relative to a water displacement of the central portion; and an aft, primary foil (6) affixed to the aft hull portion with a connecting member (7), configured to be below the waterline during operation, spaced from the hull, the aft foil having a span, a chord, a profile, a leading edge (8) and a trailing edge (9) relative to the forward direction, characterized by adjustment means (10) connected to the aft foil and configured for adjusting an angle of incidence (β
