Cap'n Wil,

The difficult things about the Beebe curve is calculating F1 and
F2.  The following are from Michael Kasten and Charles Vollum.

F1 = Long Tons ^(7/6)
F2 = 47.67^S/L / 77.28

Where S/L = Knots / LWL^0.5

Thanks for the excellent post on Defining Trawler Range.  I look forward
to seeing similarly complete data from others.

Michael Kasten
