   A padded V-hull is a hull shape found on both pure race boats and standard recreational craft. A variation of the more common V-hull , which has a V-section throughout the length of the vessel, a padded V-hull has a V-section at the bows and the forward part of the keel which then segues into a flat area typically 0.15 metres (5.9 in) to 0.25 ...

3. Circular arc hull - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_arc_hull

   The circular arc hull, as a shallow, V-shaped hull, is not ideal for a rough sea as it does not cleave the waves. However, it can have a tendency to swage. This lightweight construction has many thin ribs and planks. Thus, there may be more movement within the hull than in sturdier designs.

   A V-hull, is the shape of a boat or ship in which the contours of the hull come in a straight line to the keel. [1] V-hull designs are usually used in smaller boats and are useful in providing space for ballast inside the boat.

6. Flats boat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flats_boat

   Flats boats are often small easily trailerable boats although some may reach up to 23 ft in length [6] or more. They are typically equipped with outboard motors and offer a relatively shallow draft compared to other boats of the same length, to allow for passage over sandbars, oyster beds or other submerged objects or underwater features with less risk of damaging the hull or engine.

7. Hull (watercraft) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hull_(watercraft)

   They are usually displacement hulls. V or arc-bottom chine boats have a V shape between 6° and 23°. This is called the deadrise angle. The flatter shape of a 6-degree hull will plane with less wind or a lower-horsepower engine but will pound more in waves. The deep V form (between 18 and 23 degrees) is only suited to high-powered planing ...
