ABSTRACT:
A hull is provided defining longitudinal upstanding opposite sides interconnected by a bottom extending between lower marginal edges of the sides and by a bow structure at their forward ends and a transom structure at their rear ends. A pair of spaced apart midship opposite side compartments are provided immediately inwardly of the sides and define a center longitudinal aisle therebetween. A helm is disposed immediately rearward of one of the compartments and the sides terminate upwardly in generally horizontal gunwales. The compartments project upwardly appreciably above the gunwales and include forward upper portions inclined forwardly and downwardly toward the gunwales. A lower walk deck extends longitudinally of the hull between the compartments and appreciably forwardly of the latter. A raised deck is provided above and below the walk deck and gunwales, respectively, and extends between the sides forward of the compartments and forward from the latter toward the bow structure. The raised deck includes a rearwardly opening vertically extending recess formed therein opening into the aisle defined between the compartments and in vertical registry with the forward portion of the walk deck extending forwardly of the compartments. The portion of the interior of the hull disposed between the compartments and the bow and between the opposite sides of the hull defines a forward cockpit and a cover is removably secured over the cockpit.
