They do change pitch, most boats have them setup with just a rocker switch in the cabin to adjust the angle. Inside the front of the boat, there is a small electric motor that does thing. They help for a lot of things, they do help with top speed, in our case it was a pretty big difference going upstream compared to when we didn’t have them, downstream there was also a gain but less than half of what we got upstream. And they also can help keep the nose down in windy conditions, sacrificing top speed, but getting blown around less.
Hey Hair ! Awesome video Brother ! I raced flat water and a little bit of ocean , but those rivers really take a toll on man and machine . Thanks again ,,,,,,, Later ,,,,,,,
@@joebarra1010 actually the opposite, they’re wings mainly used for lift when the water and wind is calmer, and when high winds they can be moved with a motor and switch in the cabin to adjust the angle and keep the nose lower.
They are used to adjust the nose up/down attitude of the boat to keep the hull planing on the water correctly at different speeds in different water conditions into or with the wind, the driver has a thumb switch on the steering wheel to adjust the angle of attack of the wings.
Is that a fallow Kiwi accent I'm hearing, Home of the Hamilton, I use to grind the crankshafts on these kind of machines, always twisted out of phase something horrible.
When my dad was a kid he had a go in a dinghy with a pump in it at Irishmans creek. Then he had a Hamilton in the mid 70s. Its cool to see the world catch up
How do the wings operate? Do they change pitch?, stay stationary? So cool!!

Could anyone tell me what the fins sat out the front are for? Thanks
Harry, they’re adjustable and can add lift or downforce to the front of the boat when needed
@@VelocityVideo ah interesting. Thank you. I was thinking they were for stability in cornering in choppy conditions.
What are the paddle looking things up front for?
Down force
