	Recreational semi-displacement hull watercraft - Patent 4660490
		A watercraft as in claim 1 wherein the longitudinal profile of the hull has a substantial rise in the keel line from the middle section to the bow and a smaller rise in the keel line from the middle section to the stern.
		The skin friction of the hull is caused by the tendency of water to stick to the sides of a moving hull and to be dragged along with it.
		The semi-displacement hulls of this invention are generally characterized by a ratio of the maximum beam of the hull to the maximum depth of the hull of 2.5:1 or greater.

	Modular watercraft system - Patent 5582126
		In addition, all hulls are constructed of lightweight materials and are compact in size, thus facilitating storage of components in small areas, and enabling a single individual to transport, assemble and launch a watercraft without need for a trailer or public launch ramp, or even the help of a crew member.
		When the trimaran 24 is put to sea, the ama hulls 18 are first pivoted forward away from the large main hull 14 and extended away from one another, as shown, such that the bow end 96 of each ama hull 18 is substantially aligned with a bow end 98 of the main hull 14.
		The twin hull catamaran watercraft may be rowed by means of oars (not shown), motor driven by use of an outboard motor 156, or foot pedal operated by means of a pedal mechanism (not shown), connected to a paddle wheel (not shown), disposed in operable relation to the seating means 148.

	Multi-hull watercraft with self-righting capabilities - US Patent 5848574
		Given the weight of the extended hull or ama, pod or center hull and cross-members, this moment is more than sufficient to overcome even the opposing weight of the bipod mast, which typically would be 1 to 2 times as long as the beam of the craft.
		As such, the port hull member 12 and the starboard hull member 14 are inverted from their normal sailing orientation such that the center boards 16 and 18 are directed upwardly.
		Extending between the hulls 12 and 14 proximate the bow and stern thereof are crossbeams, indicated generally by numerals 20 and 22, respectively.

	M-hull
		The M-shaped hulls are designed to recapture the bow wave in order to use bow wave energy to create an air cushion for reduced friction drag.
		In sea trials of a boat embodying such a hull, the act of increasing power to test the advantages of the air planing cushion at higher boat speeds led to the discovery of two new phenomena.
		The first and second channels are adapted to capture a bow wave and to cause air and water to mix and spiral toward the aft end of the hull as compressed aerated water, thereby reducing friction drag, increasing lateral stability, and dampening transmission of bow wave energy at the aft end of the hull.

		This is done by shaping the hull to deflect water downward, much as a wing generates lift.

		Variables that are under the operator’s control, such as poor hull finish - the presence of nicks or dents in impeller or spin vanes, or gaps or roughness around the inlet to the pump - are likely to have larger effects.
