ABSTRACT:
A sailboat hull adapted to receive a mast and sailboat rigging with an interior concave keel forming an interior walkway. The keel is sufficiently deep and open to allow one to walk in the keel to provide sufficient head room for a person of normal height. The keel sides have a relatively vertical relationship to the bottom of the boat, and also has a relatively flat bottom. The upper hull itself has a substantially flattened bottom and sides extending from the transom forwardly in substantially vertical relationship to provide a substantially "stiff" sailing performance to the boat. The sides and bottom are configured so that a substantially geometrically normal angular relationship between them is maintained along a substantial portion of the length of the hull.
