  • Patent number: 5850793
    Abstract: A tri-hull using air and water collectively channeled and controlled through its design to enhance speed and stability of the tri-hull as it moves forward through the water. Structural wings connecting the two outer hulls to the middle hull comprise operational flaps which direct air in a desired direction along with the flow of air into air intake channels, the air exiting into hydrochannels beneath each outer hull where the interaction of the exiting air on the water moving through each hydrochannel provides an equalization or an upward force to the rear of the tri-hull and a resulting equalization or a downward force to the bow of the tri-hull which enhances the stability of the tri-hull at high speeds. The tri-hull also has adjustable air flow relief valves for controlling the flow of air into hydrochannels and sub fins beneath each outer hull to provide traction during turns.
