Title: Energy efficient high speed vessels: Design developments, 1991--1997 (in English;French)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:678951

Reviews research work to develop a generic vessel design that could be readily adapted to specific Arctic applications, specifically to produce design concepts that contribute to energy efficiency in a fisheries application. Project activities included consultations with Arctic fishermen, development and testing of a prototype 28-foot aluminium boat used to deliver fish in Hudson Bay, development of the concept of modular high-speed hulls that can be adapted for varying conditions or engine configurations, and building new vessels according to this concept for commercial service.
