ABSTRACT:
The current invention is an apparatus and method for an inner and outer dual hull boat capable of transforming between different levels of planing ability. The design is a gateway in the outer hull which allows water to pass through the void between the inner and outer hull. By controlling the position of a gate, the flow of water through the gateway in the forward moving boat can be controlled, which allows for the control of the planing or displacement capacity of the boat.
