    Unfortunately, you need to go back to the drawing board. I suggest you make a search of typical high speed boats. That will guide you to what usual shapes are.

    Srinath, it is not a planing hull.

    Tapering the forward end may seem, at least intuitively, capable of "cheating the wind". It simply does not work quite like that. Terms such as; cheating the wind, give aerodynamicists a headache.

    Sorry to rain on your parade.

    daiquiri is a learned man, but I think it could be construed as a "planing hull", imo. Just not a good one ! I don't know about it being a wind cheater, but the term "coffin cheater" comes to mind, it would be a hair-raising conveyance, and the white-knuckle excitement would start well before air resistance issues kicked in. The droopy bows on some high-speed planing hulls, pretty common from the 60's onwards, is not all about aerodynamic penetration, but can improve it. And possibly create other problems, as well.

    Many hulls, with sufficient power, can lead to a condition of planing. But I think the most honest is advising srinath88 to start again because he has not chosen the right lines.

    It is a truncated displacement hull;).

    Before you pick up the mouse again, spend some time with yacht design texts, as you're way off what would be remotely considered a planing hull and since you can't see this, it's clear you have lots of study to do, before you give it another go.

    I thought it looked more like a pencil-sharpener, but what would I know.
