Flat Bottoms:

 

Our flat bottomed hull kits are generally our most simple to build.  Aside from a rough ride in chop, these hulls offer shallow draft and relatively high load capcity for a given draft.  The hulls are stoutly built with internal girders and stringers, as well as exterior channels that provide for better handling (tracking) and add some speed efficiency due to air entrapment.  Some of our flat bottomed hulls were developed as landing craft, and they may be found in the landing craft section, though some of those shown would be an easy conversion to landing craft.
