    Yes hull designes can be patent.
    Change a patent by 35% and its called a Utility Patent.


    Regards,

    Here you go. Phantom Jet Boats makes 20-28 ft models with inboard jets w/ tunnel hulls to elevate the jet intake. It took me all of five minutes to find these guys. They mention on their website that they don't bother to patent their hulls because of the rate of innovation. But whether they patent or not, it nullifies any patent claim you have if they've already brought a design similar to yours to market. And anyway, in reading your patent abstract, it appears that your patent claim has nothing whatsoever to do with hull size, hull configuration, or engine size, but is simply a patent application for the tunnel design; and tunnels designed to elevate propellers and jets have been around for years.

    Good luck with your business venture, but unfortunately I don't think you have anything particularly new that can be patented.
