Summary: | Aquatic vessels having inflatable hull envelopes that receive transversely (i.e., are transected by) tie members for carrying framework upon which decking, propulsion devices, etc. are supported. The hull envelopes, which are generally cigar-shaped, are located side by side, with or without spacing of adjacent envelopes apart. Engine-propulsion and/or wind-propulsion devices can be supported on the framework, with or without adaptation of the envelopes thereto. Such vessels are useful for general transportation or for special recreational uses such as carrying persons for deep-sea fishing, or pulling persons on water skies along the surface, or persons held aloft by a parachute-like sail (or "parasail") above the surface, and are capable of high-speed travel. |
