    Hello, I am working on a project that floats on flood water for emergency rescues. The platform is shaped like a pontoon but the hull shape is adjustable. It is like a lifeboat that uses HDPE material. May I ask if it can run on maxsurf? Thanks.

    With Maxsurf you can calculate anything you are capable of modeling.

    What hull do you think works best? (need a hull that runs shallow, holds 8500#, and ...)
