Wave Piercing catamaran
Designed to Pierce through the waves
|
A catamaran is a sailing boat with two hulls, side by side. catamarans are very stable and two slim hulls can support a wide deck with many passengers. However, catamarans can be bumpy.
The wave-piercing catamaran is an Australian design, invented in 1984 by Philip Hercus of the Incat company. wave-piercer hulls flow smoothly through waves, instead of bouncing over them. Incat has built wave-piercer farries for nations around the world, and for the American military.
