Riguer with flood duct

[dariomonguio]

German made with a mold

fiberglass, carbon and epoxi.

will be mine for the new year race oval for 4s-6s

I've tested and works

Who makes them? How about a picture of the inside?

[Steven Vaccaro]

Interesting, how does the added weight in the transom roll the boat over?

[calcagno45]

Just me thinking out loud, but maybe the rear fills up enough to make it bob like a fishing cork, then give it some throttle and it jumps out and back up and running... Probably not but just my thought.

[Jeff Wohlt]

I would think the entry holes would have to be on the top of the tub so when it flips they are under water.

[Gerwin Brommer]

I think he wanted to tell us that he made a "start-help" instead of a floodchamber.
Holes are on both sides of the hull.
That thing won't flip over if it's upside down.
I think the reason for this starthelp is to sink the back of the boat,
in order to get "grip" when starting.
In this way the prop doesn't cavitate/cavitates less.

[Meniscus]

Personally, I'd make the hole larger, so that it can evacuate the water more efficiently when it gets on plane. Just my thought.

Good concept employed though. I've seen a lot of boats out of Germany with this type of flood chamber.

is precisely the method

[calcagno45]

Wow! I hit the nail on the head! But I would love to see a video of this happening....

dario :

Nice ! Is it hard to control flipping to the right side up ?

re

is easy, just to go soft, then quickly
pardon my English is very bad

Fellas, I'm hereby translating a PM from Dario:
This hull is from a friend of his that lives in Valencia; he gave it to a German friend along with the mold... Dario ran it once the German friend came to Verme, sorry, no videos but it works. He had seen this flood system at a race in Expozagaroza... it works like this:
When the hull capsizes, the chamber floods and the hull stands up (like a buoy), as you accelerate the force of the prop alone gets you right side up again... the only down side is that you have o ease on the throttle otherwise the hull jumps and spins up in the air.

Dario, let me know if this is what you meant.

[Meniscus]

Man, I must be slow today, because I didn't get it before. Thanks for the clarification and translation UB.

[Ub Hauled]

Just got some news from Dario,
the plug for the rigger will be in his hands and he plans in making about 5 or 6 in FG
with CF reinforcement on the bottom, transom and ride pads.

Good deal man!!!

thanks
