Looks like it to me.

I'd be interested to see it in action.

Wow. Just looks leagues different to other ribs. Awesome.

What's the cutouts on the hull?

HUMBER P4VWL · 21 June 2010, 22:03

It's a stepped hull, meant to create air under the hull to reduce drag and improve planing somehow. Some techy willcorrect/expand I'm sure.

They don't look like steps on a 'traditional' stepped hull to me?

Be interesting to see what it's like in a large following Sea in the Solent. I reckon with it's wave piercing design it could be a wet ride?

See, said I'd be wrong.

though they are steps of some sort aren't they?
