41.Why there is no bilge keel fwd and aft

October 10, 2018 Posted by AK No comments
If keel is fitted for full length of the vessel it will be more difficult to construct and would be difficult to align with flow along the hull.
Particularly at fore end causing a large increase in resistance and fuel consumption.
At the aft end boundary layer is much thicker since the keel will not project through , it would have limited effect.
