Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a catamaran hull to improve performance characteristics. The catamaran hull comprises a staggered keel and varying deadrise angles to reduce hunting phenomena and improve sea-keeping, handling, and turning abilities of the catamaran. The hull includes a forward keel centered on each sponson, a mid keel moved inward relative to the forward keel, and an aft keel moved inward relative to the mid keel. This catamaran hull provides a solution that reduces undesirable phenomena such as hunting and outward leaning during turns, while improving stability and maneuverability. Overall, it offers enhanced performance in various water conditions through its unique staggered keel configuration and optimized hull geometry.
