Revolutionizing Boating: The Science of Lift and Moxham Retaining Rails

Boating enthusiasts, have you ever wondered what sets some boats apart in terms of performance and efficiency? The answer lies in the science of fluid dynamics and the innovative technology of Moxham Retaining Rails.
Traditionally, the boundary layer of water that meets a boat's hull is relatively stagnant, creating drag and slowing the boat down. But what if there was a way to manipulate the flow of water to create lift and counteract this drag? That's exactly what Moxham Retaining Rails do.

Developed by naval architect, John Moxham, these rails work by creating a layer of water that is in direct contact with the hull. This turbulent flow generates lift like the way an aeroplane wing generates lift and helps to reduce drag and improve the boat's overall efficiency. In fact, independent testing has shown that boats equipped with Moxham Retaining Rails can experience up to 20% reduction in drag.
But the benefits don't stop there. Not only does the design improve a boat's performance, but it also enhances its handling and stability. A lift generated by the rails helps to keep the boat level, providing a smoother and more comfortable ride.
John Moxham’s Hull is truly revolutionary. The Retaining Rails and hydraulic lift effects are game-changers in manoeuvring a vessel. By utilizing this cutting-edge technology, we are able to offer our customers boats that are not only faster and more efficient, but also safer and more enjoyable to operate. Our boats are not just a mode of transportation, but a true revolution in boating.
