j Q This invention relates ...to Speed boatsand the primary object of the invention is to provide la boat which may be lcapable of being propelled over marshy waters where the 'waters contain considerable long grass and weeds. In certain parts of the country,
particularly in the South, there are, wide exe' j panses of waterwhere boats withv deep draft cannot navigateso he provided a flat bot- 10 tom boat with means for providing a cushionl Aof air between the water andthe bottom of theY boat So that the Vboat whenin action will be Vbuoyed ASlightly above the water-S surface.
v15 The novel construction of the inventionr i willbe apparent by reference to the follow-j.
ing' description in `connection with. the ac-Y p Y longitudinally of said bottom adjacent the companying drawings, in `which* Fig. l is a perspectivelview of a boat `con- 'VZOStructed in accordance with his invention,
and v F ig. 2 is an end View of the Same. Y The boat is shown as having a fiat bottom 1- with an upturned bow 2. The boat may 25 be providedV with a coping V3 and a propeller 4 driven by an appropriatev lmechanism may supply the necessary power. Near the respective edges 5 and 6 ofthe boat are two depending fins 7 and' 8, running longitudi- 30 nally of and supported by the bottom of the boat. The fins 7 and 8 are deep enough to provide an air pocket 9 which, whenthe boat attains sufiicient speed, wi-ll cause the air to l pack under the bottom 1 soas to havev suf- BOAT.
vboatat all.. C
- yl. A boat having a Smooth, flat, uninter-if iicient buoyancy to raise ,the boatv abovethe surface of the water. Y. Therefore, V.the -vboat i when injaction will be in the form of a hydrplane.
He found that by providing the longi- VV tudinally depending ns so yas to provide thev `40 'i A y airpocket, the boat can attainv considerabler speed, as muchas fifty miles van hour',` over marshy streams and water courses where ordinarily 1t would be difficultkto propel al j l 45 Whathe `claims and desiresto secure Letters-Patent is:
rupted. bottom,l an inclinedv substantially plane faced lbowl mergingtherewith and a 7 pair of substantiallyparallelfins extending side edges lthereof and'V depending therefrom plane faced bow merging therewith anda pair of substantially parallel fins extending longitudinally of saidbottom adjacent lthe sideedges thereof and depending therefrom;V substantially perpendicular to said bottom, Said fins having bevelled forward ends adjacent the junction fof said bowand bottom."
In testimony whereof I affix mysignature.
