*NOTE: 1, The coefficients and dimensions presented above are for that 

 portion of a single hull that is below the 17.3 ft waterline. This draft 

 corresponds to the total height at the top of the body of revolution. 

 The total full-scale displacement, wetted surface, and draft, for a single 

 hull, are 2026 tons S.W., 19197 sq. ft., and 32 ft., respectively. That 

 portion of the full-scale hull above the 17.3 ft. waterline (strut) has 

 a waterline length (LWL) of 226.5 ft., 

 water plane coefficient (C ) of 0.709. 



a beam (B ) of 8.0 ft., and a
