We've come full circle. Compare this profile to a Viking ship's bow.  I look forward to seeing video of this design in heavy weather.

volgens mij is dit een geweldig concept,maar

over de stabiliteit zijn er geen gegevens gegeven

ofwel bekend gemaakt,zelf ben ik 43 jaar zeeman geweest

The bow is designed to allow the waves to split away from the hull instead of picking the ship up and slamming it down which means the vessel moves forward instead of up and down, hence the higher speeds seen. From the tank tests it is a much more efficient bow design than the flare, and it shows in real weather. The crews like it as well because the X bow ships don't beat them up.

search "Orca in the "The perfect storm" " the first video shows either this ship or a sister ship in a storm, my guess with the bow is its designed to keep the house high and dry mostly using fluid dynamics. but dont know that forsure
