Hey guys,
I found this during my regular look into experimental watercraft.

Now this is a great design! (although I am not a big fan of u-boats. I much prefer cataraft styles) Read the comparison of the toob and toon. You can get an idea where I would like to take our crafts. The most important aspect of this design which I like is the modified shape of the pontoon (u-boat). much more hydrodynamic!
Now, just imagine a flat top surface solid enough to stand on, creating a much more structurally integral boat! Increased, stability, and safety, increased storage, and uber fast! All,..still, from a completely inflatable craft! (and lighter than present boats of the same size,.. maybe even this one)… Hee Hee!!
I have the design! and it is workable. Just need to save a few thousand bucks for the proto. Stay tuned!!
