Not wholly sure what you mean by this...got a sketch?
Optimised for...?..seakeeping, resistance??...
There are more papers out there than I can shake a stick at, on this one

Just make the resistance smaller,I mean when the ship is moving the connection strutures will be lift to air,only 4 thin pillars pass through the water line.in other words,this ship will have two work mode, the up one and the lower one on picture,which one to be use depends on different situation( this idea maybe not mature and reasonable,but i want to make a little try~~Not wholly sure what you mean by this...got a sketch?

Ok..i see what you mean now.
Firstly, you need to understand the correct terminology.
The waterline intersects with the 'strut'.
Below the strut is the tube..above the strut is the haunch(hull).
You then need to understand what causes resistance and what the influences of it are....in the case of a Swath WSA is your killer. So, if you reduce the struts to 2 small bitty sections...the buoyancy in those struts still need to go somewhere...into the tubes. So the tubes become bigger = more WSA.
Also you will improve motions, but your stability - statical stability - will be greatly affected. Since there will not be a restoring moment until the haunches become immersed.
Lots of things for you to consider!....good luck

thank you brother~!
I know why, but I'm not sure that I can say publicly, for legal reasons.
I know this is an old one, but wondering if there is anything that can be shared now....
Yeah, I can't really state, publically, why. It got very legal...
Fair enough
Tenaz is available for sale and looks like an awesome opportunity for refit, but some puzzle pieces aren't fitting together....
That it was never put into service and Lider seems to have dissappeared.
Tenaz has been sitting for almost 15 years which leaves a number of questions around why
The particular concerns are around stability and sea keeping and if they are a viable platform
This is why:
She ran aground and breached the 2 stbd side hulls. Was towed back to Louisiana, and declared an insurance write off.
That's the last I heard.
After a period of several years of "legality", she did successfully go into service.
But not for very long....leaving vessels hanging around ideal never used for years, does wonders for machinery
They are an extremely seakindly vessel, we sailed her through a typhoon...no issues at all...
