Deadrise

deadrise - The measurement of the angle between the bottom of a boat and its widest beam. A vessel with a 0º deadrise has a flat bottom, high numbers indicate deep V shaped hulls.

deadrise
Degrees of V-shape hull angle measured at the transom of planing powerboats.
deck boat
Blunt-bowed power boat generally characterized by an open deck and generous passenger seating.

deadrise - Expressed as an angle, it is height between the vessel's bottom and its widest beam.
dead water - The water in a vessel's wake, close to her sternpost, that follows the ship.

deadrise
The angle of the boat's bottom to the horizontal. A flat bottom has 0 degrees of deadrise. A deep-V powerboat hull has about 25 degrees.

DEADRISE - The angle from the bottom of the hull (not the keel) to the chine.
DECK - A permanent covering over a compartment, hull or any part thereof.
DEEP-V HULL - A hull designed to go through the water and not capable of planning speed.

deadrise: the angle at which the bottom rises from where it joins the keep to the turn of the bilge, or chine. deck plate: small fitting set flush with the deck, forming the upper extremity of a piping system.

RISE OF BOTTOM See deadrise. RISER The upright board of a stair. A pipe extending vertically and having side branches. RISINGS The fore and aft stringers inside a small boat, secured to the frames, and on which the thwarts rest.

Deadrise - The design angle between the keel (q.v.) and horizontal.
Deadwood - A wooden part of the centerline structure of a boat, usually between the sternpost and amidships.

Deadrise: Rise of the bottom from baseline to molded breadth measureed amidships. Also called "rise of floor" or "rise of bottom".

Deadrise: The angle between the bottom of a boat and its widest beam. - A vessel with a 0º deadrise has a flat bottom, high numbers indicate deep V shaped hulls.
Deck: A covering over a compartment, hull or any part of a ship serving as a floor.

flat-bottom boatType of boat or hull shape with very little or no deadrise.

The hull form shows distinct deadrise ranging from 13 degrees amidships to 5 degrees at the stern. Even the entry shows deadrise and not that conical section we are used to seeing at the forward sections.

Deep-Vee - A hard chine power boat having a 15 degree or more angle deadrise at the transom.
Dinghy A small boat, usually carried on hauled behind a bigger boat
Displacement-The weight of the water displaced by the vessel.

DEAD ASTERN- Directly aft.

DEADRISE- Measurement of the angle between the bottom of the vessel and it's widest beam. A vessel with a 0` deadrise has a flat bottom, high numbers indicate deep V shaped hulls.

Moulded spray rails roll water away to keep the boat dryer at higher speeds and to reduce frictional resistance, while a revolutionary curved chine and optimal deadrise at the transom ensure a softer ride and stable tracking in all sea conditions.

DEEP VEE A hard chine power boat having a 15 degree or more angle deadrise at the transom. DISPLACEMENT HULL A hull that will not exceed a fixed speed which increases with the length of the hull.
