The introduction of the rear window caused in most models a loss of cruise speed due to the extra drag, while not adding any useful visibility.

High-performance rowers tend to be tall and muscular: although extra weight does increase the drag on the boat, the larger athlete's increased power tends to be more significant.

If an electric boat has sails as well, and will be used in deep water ( deeper than about 15 m or 50 ft ), then a towed generator can help build up battery charge while sailing ( there is no point in trailing such a generator while under electric propulsion as the extra drag from the generator would waste more electricity than it generates ).

The 40 megajoules per kilogram or less kinetic energy of projectiles launched at up to 9000 m / s velocity ( if including extra for drag losses ) towards Low Earth Orbit is a few kilowatt-hours per kilogram if efficiencies are relatively high, which accordingly has been hypothesized to be under $ 1 of electrical energy cost per kilogram shipped to LEO, though total costs would be far more than electricity alone.

An important drawback was that pusher designs – because of the struts and rigging necessary to hold their tail units, and the extra drag this entailed – tended at best to have an inferior performance to tractor types with the same engine power.

These advantages are offset, to a greater or lesser extent in any given design, by the extra weight and drag of the structural bracing, and the aerodynamic inefficiency inherent in the stacked wing layout.

Downwind the extra skin friction drag is a hindrance.

The extra drag at low speed is acceptable because of the beneficial reduction in stall speed and improvement in handling characteristics, but at higher speeds the extra drag contributed by slots is a significant disadvantage because it reduces cruising speed and increases fuel consumption per unit distance flown.
