2nd Hull Vane

Buijs Brothers Shipbuilders has constructed a difficult U-shaped Hull Vane for their client.

Very complex bending work had to be done.
From cutting the iron, to the fairing and painting: Buijs Brothers Shipbuilders will do the job!

The Hull Vane® is a patented fixed hydrofoil that is placed below the stern of a ship, saving fuel and improving seakeeping. This ’hydrofoil’ influences the stern wave pattern and creates hydrodynamic lift, which is partially oriented forward and reduces the ship’s resistance. The Hull Vane® was invented by Dr. Ir. Peter van Oossanen. Since 2014 Hull Vane Ltd. has operated in the worldwide maritime market, with a special focus on yachts, naval and patrol vessels and ferries.
