Lift and drag forces (3)

As a means of eliminating the wave resistance to a high-speed boat, the hulls are supported well above the water by streamlined struts connected to horizontal hydrofoils. If the hydrofoil has the characteristics plotted in Figure 6.8A, what must be its dimensions to support the load of a 3,200 kg boat at the most favourable lift-drag ratio when the high-speed boat is cruising at 35 knots?
