<p>The vessel has a pair of flexible hulls (34) flexibly coupled to a 'cabin' (76) between and above the hulls, thereby allowing the hulls to independently follow the surface of the water. Motor pods (44) are hinged to the back of the hulls (34) to maintain the propulsion system in the water, even if the stern of one or both hulls tends to lift out of the water when crossing swells and the like. Various other embodiments and features are disclosed, following the surface of the water while supporting the module (76) above the surface of the water.</p> |
