In order to fulfill the rule of thumb, draft = max( 1/2 beam, 1/7 length). A round hull will require a deep keel with a larger wetted area.
It is a full displacement motor yacht, with a specified D/L ratio, operation speed, length, and beam. What advice do you have?
The only way I find to add a sufficient displacement, without increasing the diagonals curvature at the fore or aft, is by increasing the area of...
Generally, the diagonals should have slight curvature at the bow and stern, and maximum curvature at the midsection. However, for a high prismatic...
