 SBSR, 2 May 1940, pp. 440-441. This article shows 

 a proposed design of high-speed motorboat sup- 

 ported by a planing step or a hydrofoil forward and 

 by a second hydrofoil aft, in which there is em- 

 bodied a screw-propeller drive with a vertical 

 shaft and bevel gears at both top and bottom. The 

 steering rudders extend well down from the hull 

 of the craft. This article mentions a tj^pe of boat 

 evolved by J. Plum of the TMB staff.

 resume of the development work carried out on 

 hydrofoil motor boats in Germany during World 

 War II. Tlie boats did not proceed beyond the 

 experimental stage. A boat with an all-up weight 

 of 100, t, , powered by two 1,600-horse engines, 

 attained a speed of 41 kt, while a second boat with 

 a weight of 60 t was expected to reach 60 kt; the 

 latter was, however, damaged before trials were run.
