Following the order received from Kees van de Stadt of Satellite Yacht Design, to design a lifting keel for their Beluga 46 we developed a unique design received with favour by the client.

This design features a keel stub in which is housed a lifting keel fin, to the bottom of which is attached a ballast bulb and winglets. Trials revealed the design to possess superior speed, due to the additional stability and the addition of winglets.
