An impressive combination of speed and comfort, the SWATH is characterized by twin submersible hulls, which provide for about 80% of the vessel's displacement. The two submerged hulls support the main deck and substructure by employing one or two slender struts per side. These struts are normally the only part of the vessel piercing the water surface, therefore minimizing the effect of the waves on the vessel's motions and the forward speed of the ship.

The SWATH, in addition to operation as a crew or passenger transport, may also function as a pilot boat, a dinner/cruise boat, a gambling boat, a diving/work support vessel or an ocean research vessel.
