Semi displacement catamaran hull design. This type of craft has better stability and. These tests show that semi-displacement catamarans can benefit from. They know what works for a single hull boat and the cats they design are even better boats.

Thanks in advance. 10th International Conference on Fast Sea Transportation FAST 2009 Athens Greece October 2009 MOTOR YACHT HULL FORM DESIGN FOR THE DISPLACEMENT TO SEMI-DISPLACEMENT SPEED RANGE Perry van Oossanen1 Justus Heimann2 Juryk Henrichs3 Karsten Hochkirch4 1 Naval Architect Van Oossanen Associates bv Costerweg 1F 6702AA Wageningen the Netherlands 2. Generally speaking if the speed to length ratio is 04 or less it is classed as a displacement craft.

Fore outer boards and deck decks smoothly change over into aft outer boards of said floats and deck. Semi-displacement hulls and suitable foil assist systems for these hulls were investigated. They come from a very conservative design place.

The hull shapes are. The ballasted displacement hulls deep draft creates a very low center of gravity and results in a lot of hull below the waterline which makes the boat much less susceptible to the wind. Hull fore features configuration of single-hull vessel while aft has catamaran configuration.

146m Steel Pilothouse Cruising Yacht. Catamaran hulls can be designed as planing or displacement hulls but they are not slowed nearly as much by the drag barrier. Their cat designs resemble their single hull designs.

04 to 082 is the semi displacement category and 082 and above is classed as planeing. Typical catamaran hull forms semi-displacement top and planing bottom Displacement catamarans usually operate near the hydrodynamically unfavorable hump speed Fn05. Many of the cats can use either displacement or planing hulls depending on the speed to be optimized.
