Crafted With Precision

The leadership of our engineering team at Fluid Motion, the parent company of Cutwater Boats, has leveraged over half a century of experience in designing, testing, and innovating performance hull designs. This extensive experience, combined with a forward-thinking approach, has resulted in our advanced running surface. Key features such as our double-stepped hull, reverse chine, keel pad, laminar flow interrupters, and deep-V forward come together to create a high-performance design that excels in all conditions.

 

 

 

Double-Stepped Hull 

Our advanced double-stepped hull reduces drag by channeling air onto the running surface. This design enhances fuel efficiency and decreases time to plane. The steps, combined with the features detailed below, create an exceptionally handling, efficient, and high-performing hull design.

 

 

 

Reverse Chine & Keel Pad

Integral to our hull design, the reverse chine enhances stability and cornering performance. At the bow, the combination of optimized chine and bow flare minimizes spray in rough seas. Often overlooked, the perfectly balanced keel pad boosts high-speed stability, efficiency, and handling. These features ensure exceptional performance across the entire speed range.

 

 

 

 

Laminar Flow Interrupters

Our exclusive Laminar Flow Interrupters (LFIs) disrupt suction created by laminar flow at the bow while cornering. This innovative design provides exceptionally smooth and positive handling.

 

 



Deep-V Forward

Our advanced deep-V hull features an aggressive dead rise forward, for a smooth ride. The progressive taper improves both efficiency and handling.

Experience the Advanced Cutwater Hull Design

Our commitment to superior performance and cutting-edge design can be found in every facet of our hull architecture. The many innovations built into our advanced hull create an extremely well balanced, high-performance running surface.
