Boat stability

[Beach Boy]

Might be a silly question , but can anyone explain why there are so many different shape hulls ? Yes there are boats for river use which would be no good on the sea as far as stability but the choice for inshore or off shore work ...?

speed ? stability ? bit of both ?

Best thing to do is Google...Planing Hulls, Semi Displacement Hulls and Displacement hulls you will find answers there.....
Stability wise i dont think you can beat a RIB....

Different strokes for different folks mate, not everyone wants to plod out to the wrecks at 8 knots

Good question beach boy, the design of the hull of a boat
or ship is based around what it will be primarily used for.
ie, you wouldn't use a speed boat hull to tow a barge,
or a displacement hull to get back into port with a naughty
Easterly bearing down on you.
The way I see it is if you want a working platform then a
Catemeran or cathedral hull are the best , and with a few
horses pushing you home are the biz.
Old converted lifeboats and klinker built boats are great
For lazy days inshore. ( the best fishing imo ) great thread btw
