ABSTRACT:
A semi-submerged ship having a superstructure supported on struts above a pair of submerged buoyant hulls, the structure being arranged in such a manner that cargo can be stored in or passed through the struts and submerged hulls. Internal structure is minimized by using double walled load bearing construction, with easy access through the struts between the superstructure and the submerged hulls. The arrangement is adaptable to solid or liquid cargo, with provision for circulating liquid and for thermal control when required. The structure can be applied to a wide range of design configurations to suit various size, performance, function and payload requirements.
