The greatest success in this area was achieved by the outstanding engineer Baron Hans von Schertel.He used two V-shaped wings, one in front, the other in the stern. The first wing took 50-75% of the load, and its surface shapes were lengthened to increase longitudinal and lateral stability. This design was simple and provided a fairly large load-bearing surface. Schertel began his work in 1937 and until 1936 built 8 experimental boats. The last of them had a 50 hp motor. During tests on the Rhine, he, with five people on board, reached a speed of 29 knots.Since 1937, Schertel worked together with the company "Gebrueder Sachsenberg A.G." Gotthard Sachsenberg, owner of the shipyard in Rosslau an der Elbe, near Dessau. Gradually, a whole team of qualified specialists joined him. The joint firm Schrtel-Sachsenberg Hydrofoil syndicate was established.The first boat of the joint design was tested in August 1938. It was a passenger river vessel with a length of 9.5 m and a weight of 2.8 tons. With a 150 hp engine. he developed a speed of 40 knots. The boat was used until 1945.With the outbreak of the war, interest in hydrofoil boats grew. The designers proposed several projects for high-speed submersible boats. They worked out the moments of ship handling and wing configurations. At the beginning of 1942, the implementation of the Sk116 project began, which could carry a torpedo, semi-submerged in a spindle-shaped body. There is information that the Sk 116 project was being implemented, but there is very little of it.
