ABSTRACT:
A pleasure boat having a rectangular passenger area for operation at high speeds in moderate seas, planes on ski-like planing surfaces on the bottom of laterally spaced, knife edge hulls located on the starboard and port sides of the craft and the stern end of a wedge shaped bottom rounded to assist in turns; the rounded bottom also having flutes to improve tracking and strakes to assist in the lift and to divert spray from the craft; the two forward hulls terminating in tunnels located along either side of the rounded bottom to reduce greatly the surface area in the water and to provide lift to assist in planing.
