Abstract A boat hull constructed with a bottom configuration of generally V cross-sectional shape except with an additional appendage as an integral part of the bottom described herein as a ''''widened keel form'''' with a modified W cross-sectional shape. Said ''''widened keel form'''' extends along both sides of the longitudinal centerline of the boat hull from the forward section of the hull to the stern. One half of the bottom portion of the said ''''widened keel form'''' is located approximately in the same inclined plane or nearly parallel plane to that of the opposite V bottom side of the boat hull. The forward portion of said ''''widened keel form'''' extends above the load water line of the boat hull.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A boat hull constructed with a configuration that includes a bottom of generally V cross-sectional shape except with an additional appendage as an integral part of the bottom and described as a ''''widened keel form'''' with a modified W crosssectional shape, said ''''widened keel form'''' extending along both sides of the longitudinal centerline of the boat hull from the forward section of the hull to the stern, wherein approximately one half of the bottom side of said ''''widened keel form'''' is located approximately in a nearly parallel plane to that of the opposite V bottom side of the hull.

A boat hull constructed with a configuration that includes a bottom of generally V cross-sectional shape except with an additional appendage as an integral part of the bottom and described as a ''''widened keel form'''' with a modified W crosssectional shape, said ''''widened keel form'''' extending along both sides of the longitudinal centerline of the boat hull from the forward section of the hull to the stern, wherein approximately one half of the bottom side of said ''''widened keel form'''' is located approximately in a nearly parallel plane to that of the opposite V bottom side of the hull.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
A boat hull as defined in claim 1, whereas said ''''widened keel form'''' with its modified W cross-sectional shape extends above the load water line of the boat hull at the forward section of the hull.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
A boat hull as defined in claim 1, whereas said bottom side of the widened keel form is in the same inclined plane as the opposite V-bottomed side of the boat hull.
