ABSTRACT:
An improved hull for watercraft provides a secondary access port to an engine compartment. The secondary access port facilitates service or maintenance of certain engine components (e.g., spark plugs) which are hard to reach from the main access port, whether due to distance from the main access port, angle of approach through the main access port, or obstruction of reach by other watercraft components. The hull design also provides enhanced lift of the watercraft, during initial acceleration, to a cruising position up on plane, and better control during sharp, high speed turns.
