..., a procedure is provided for estimating the smooth water performance of warped planing hulls. Two examples are provided and show that the analytical results agree with model data obtained at the Davidson Laboratory. Also a comparison in made with model data obtained at MARIN on tests of a 70 ft. long warped...
