throughout SwiftCraft that are found only in
HydroComp software. These include an "method
expert" to evaluate and rank the prediction
methods, optimum sizing of reduction gear ratio in
conjunction with propeller sizing, analysis of the
effect of propeller cupping, and a physics-based
equilibrium trim planing analysis.

SwiftCraft is easy to use. It was developed
