Abstract
Presently the multihull market is the fastest growing segment of the entire
boating industry. To fulfill the demands, multihull high speed vessels have become a
popular choice of transport such as catamaran and Small Waterplane Area Twin Hulls
(SW A TH) vessel because of their comfort levels are higher compared to monohull.
The increasing demand for high speed vessel for commercial and military purpose led
to the increasing number of catamaran in waterways. The impact of the increasing
demands of catamaran causing a serious environmental damage. The bank erosion
issues especially in river and canals occur due to the large wake wash motion
produced when the catamaran passes.
