Seakeeping. Habitability. Beauty ⇐ ПредыдущаяСтр 3 из 3 Seakeeping A vessel's hull shape, center of gravity, mass, superstructure and for sailboats its sail plan will determine its response to waves in various sea conditions and to wind. On smaller vessels designed for cruising (as opposed to racing) the ability to smoothly handle rough seas and (particularly in sailing vessels) stormy wind conditions without imposing extreme pilot skills or attention is highly desired. Such considerations are of lower importance for racing vessels. Habitability Vessels intended for cruising and " live aboard" marina use will compromise other factors, typically speed, in the interest of providing a useful and comfortable living environment. Range A vessel not providing sailing capabilities will be limited in its range by its fuel supply and fuel consumption, with fuel consumption being highly dependent upon engine type, hull shape and operating speed. Style Style (or fashion) will reflect attitudes of the time in which an " modern" vessel is designed or may be a homage to an earlier style of vessel design. In some cases the designs of small craft have echoed themes found in automotive design which in turn were influenced by aircraft. Beauty A vessel has three lines that define most of its beauty. The coaming line is the line of the top of the hull. The silhouette defines how the superstructure looks. The entry line defines how the bow looks. In general, the lines should remind a viewer of each other. A low silhouette is pleasing, and also reduces danger from wind,. Most naval architects specialize in one or a few types of vessels. Common specialties include: § Commercial (Tugboat, Ferry, Container ship, Tanker, Cruise ship) § Military vessels (Minesweeper, Frigate, Aircraft carrier) § Pleasure craft (Sailing Yacht, Motor yacht, Racing Yacht) § Historical vessels
