The Flying Force Fin and the HMCS Yukon
Force Fins with Winglets!
Designers of the fastest-moving yachts tested the hydrodynamic characteristics of Force Fins in Boeing’s Wind Tunnel. Force Fins proved to be of perfect dimensions for a diver to be propelled without turbulence.
One of those Designers asked Master Fin Designer Bob Evans to make one modification to the Force Fin for his personal use. Add Winglets to eliminate wing tip vortices, just like on aircraft. The Flying Force was born.
