RESISTANCE CHARACTERISTICS OF A SYSTEMATIC SERIES OF PLANING HULL FORMS--SERIES 65

This paper presents the results of resistance measurements made on Series 65. This series is composed of two groups of hard chine planing hulls with widely different planforms. Within each of the groups, the length-beam ratio and the deadrise are varied. The results are incorporated with those from Series 62 to form a comprehensive compilation of planing craft experimental data. The results are analyzed and compared with predictions from the equations for prismatic surfaces developed by Savitsky.
