ABSTRACT:
Vessel comprising two hull sections, pivotably connected together by hinges positioned above the center of the vessel and above the center of gravity of the separate hull sections. The vessel comprises a propulsion installation with one single propeller. The propeller shaft direction is parallel to the center line of the vessel within the central dividing plane of the vessel. Those parts of the hull sections determining the hold are joined through edges determined by the central dividing plane. Near the parts of both hull sections into or onto which the propulsion installation is positioned the hull sections are adjoined on a plane positioned at a distance from the central dividing plane such that the transverse cross sections of both hull sections are unequal. The propulsion installation is housed in the larger section.
