A pleasure craft is provided such as a luxury pleasure craft. The craft eliminates the need for transverse bulkheads in one or more decks inside the hull of the craft, thus improving the aesthetics and usability thereof. The hull of the pleasure craft defines an imaginary or virtual freeboard deck located below the main deck of the craft. A cavity is arranged on one or more decks on both sides of the hull separate from the remaining space of the corresponding deck and delimited on its outer side by the corresponding side wall. The imaginary or virtual freeboard deck is therefore at a height equal to the extension in the vertical direction of the cavities from the floor of the corresponding deck.

A hopper barge is disclosed. The hopper barge comprises a hopper compartment for carrying a plurality of containers, the hopper compartment comprising a hopper compartment deck. The hopper barge comprises an inner-bottom portion defined in part by the hopper compartment deck and a bottom portion of the hopper barge. A plurality of longitudinal bulkheads are arranged in parallel within the inner-bottom portion of the hopper barge. A plurality of transverse bulkheads are arranged in parallel within the inner-bottom portion of the hopper barge, the plurality of transverse bulkheads running perpendicular to the plurality of longitudinal bulkheads. A plurality of pedestal supports are affixed to the hopper compartment deck, wherein at least one of the plurality of longitudinal bulkheads intersects at least one of the plurality of transverse bulkheads at a position beneath at least one of the plurality of pedestal supports.

The invention relates to a boat (1) for servicing shallow canals, lakes, and rivers configured for extracting, cutting, grinding, and casting plant waste, solid waste, or agricultural plantation harvest and sending what is harvested to shore, and comprising an extractor belt (3) configured for extracting the plant waste which is deposited on a horizontal conveyor belt (9) to a grinding mill (4); and further comprising at least one drive turbine (5) and a directional stack (6).

A boat hull includes a pair of demi-hulls. Each demi-hull has a running surface configured to contact water when the hull is planing. The running surface extends longitudinally along a keel between an outer chine and an inner chine and aft to a running surface trailing edge. The running surface has most of its surface area outboard the keel. A first step extends laterally across the running surface and between the outer chine and inner chine. A first planing surface is aft the first step along the running surface. The first planing surface has an outboard convex curved surface on an outboard side of the keel extending from the keel to the outer chine and an inboard convex curved surface on an inboard side of the keel extending from the keel to the inner chine.

Disclosed is the production of a marine boat with materials that provide bulletproofing and ballistic protection both at the lower hull and the superstructure, or only at the lower hull or only at the superstructure of the boat. The boat is manufactured at a length of 3 meters to 15 meters and has an inflatable tube around it, for use for military and civilian purposes.

A hopper barge is disclosed. The hopper barge comprises a hopper compartment for carrying a plurality of containers, the hopper compartment comprising a hopper compartment deck. The hopper barge comprises an inner-bottom portion defined in part by the hopper compartment deck and a bottom portion of the hopper barge. A plurality of longitudinal bulkheads are arranged in parallel within the inner-bottom portion of the hopper barge. A plurality of transverse bulkheads are arranged in parallel within the inner-bottom portion of the hopper barge, the plurality of transverse bulkheads running perpendicular to the plurality of longitudinal bulkheads. A plurality of pedestal supports are affixed to the hopper compartment deck, wherein at least one of the plurality of longitudinal bulkheads intersects at least one of the plurality of transverse bulkheads at a position beneath at least one of the plurality of pedestal supports.

A multipurpose vessel suitable for the intended purposes of being practically and quickly. This can be performed manually or using a lifting device, to arrange the various modules, in accordance with the purpose of the task to be performed, in several positions along the deck, in accordance with the distribution of the cargo to be transported. There are tanks arranged below the compartments, which can be used as fuel tanks and/or ballast. The compartments can also be configured individually or in combination.
