1, GENERAL
1.1 General Description
This 10.6m fast pilot boat is one of our small-sized pilot boats developed based on our technology IP—the K-TOUGH
Hull Platform—which is today’s most advanced and rough sea capable basic hull technology infrastructure platform
featuring the KINGTOUGH exclusive reconstruction in basic theory for hull design which is innovated particularly to
remove the most striking headaches/problems of today’s high speed boat operations due to limits/flaws in the human
understanding behind the classic deep-V hull theory that has been employed for hull design of more than 99% of
high speed boats of today including pilot boats. As such, the intention is to offer a series of small pilot boat
solutions that can offer far higher value for safety and performance than the money to be paid for it while with no
compromise in pilot carrying capability (no matter big or small, pilot boats are designed to only carry 6-8 pilots in
the wheelhouse and we have kept 6 seats for pilots in this very small 10.6m boat which is same as in our delivered
patrol boat version).

Compared with the classic deep-V hull theory based boats, all K-TOUGH Hull based boats will ride with fundamentally
different behaviors that will change landscape of today’s industrial capability for high speed boat operating safety,
performance and comfort, detailing as follows:

1. Unlike the classic deep-V hull theory based boats that are rocking from portside to starboard and then again
and again when riding at low/displacement speeds, the K-TOUGH Hull theory based boats can do low speed
move extremely stable just like walking on land(video available as proof), securely extremely high level of
comfort in low speed maneuvering for coming alongside quayside or leaving the harbor, which is of vital
importance for pilot transit and the shifting of pilots between the pilot boat and commercial ship in adverse
conditions;
2. Unlike the classic deep-V hull theory based boats that are highly lifting the forward hull section above water
when transmitting the speeds from displacement speeds to planing speeds, the K-TOUGH Hull based boats are
transmitting its riding mode from displacement speeds to planing speeds smoothly and gentle without
significant bow up, because the unique hydrodynamic characteristics of the underwater section of our boats
has been set to allow oncoming water to meet the dynamic forward waterline entry to evenly lift the whole
boat along the hull length rather than simply hitting the forward hull section of the boat to cause a high water
slope like what is found in the classic deep-V hull theory based boats;
3. Unlike the classic deep-V hull theory based boats that are riding with very exciting and unstable behaviors
that get the dynamic forward waterline entry to be always changing and for most of the time to significantly
move back to the midship hull bottom and even the aft hull bottom to allow oncoming waves to directly hit
the midship hull bottom to cause strong vertical acceleration to be imparted to both the hull structure and the
crew onboard, the K-TOUGH Hull theory based boats can self lock their riding behaviors to sustain extremely
smooth, soft and stable ride even over 60 knots and with nearly no speed loss even in open sea waves---The V-
shaped bottom to meet waves in our boats at high speed has the deadrise angle to be approx. 60 deg. while
the V-shaped bottom for competing boats to meet waves at high speeds only has the deadrise angle to be
around 25-28 deg., which means our K-TOUGH Hull based boats can easily cut through waves to make the way
ahead without effort, thus hull slamming has been fundamentally reduced to extremely low level, which is a
very irreplaceable capability for a modern fast response pilot boat because real-world mission is always
combined with tough weather;
4. Unlike the classic deep-V hull theory based boats that are maneuvering with extremely large heeling angle and
high tendency of throw-away phenomenon and side skidding, the K-TOUGH Hull theory based boats can self
stabilize themselves even when doing very high speed sharp turning, making safe tactics operation secured
with confidence;
5. Unlike the classic deep-V hull theory based boats that have to face very wet deck in rough seas due to
unstable vertical stability at the bow and problematic design in the run of topside geometry(no matter the
bow is conventional raked bow with flared topsides or is radical slender wave-piercing bow), the K-TOUGH Hull
theory based boats can ride fully dry even in sea state five to allow extremely safe deck working capability;
6. Unlike the classic deep-V hull theory based boats that are facing terrible heaving motion and pitching motion
(heaving and pitching motions refer to the situation when the whole boat is to be frequently and dramatically
lifted and then lowered, and the bow highly lifted with stern deeply down and then the stern highly up and
the bow deeply down in waves) when carrying berthing and boarding operations alongside commercial ship,
there is very little sign of heaving motion or pitching motion in rough seas for any of KINGTOUGH boats
designed based on same K-TOUGH Hull platform;
7. Unlike the classic deep-V hull theory based boats that are very sensitive in speed and loading condition, there
is very little impact to the speed of our K-TOUGH Hull theory based boats even at overloading condition due
to the special bottom profile of our hull design.

To confirm above, we have carried out back-to-back sea trial comparison between this K-TOUGH Hull theory based
10.6m boat in patrol boat version with a classic deep-V hull theory based 20m fast patrol boat. Though this 20m
boat is 5-6 times heavier and the construction cost is 4-5 times higher, the real-world rough sea handling capability
is something to be second killed by the very small 10.6m boat with the hull length to be only 9m which only has
approx. 1.4% of speed loss when operating in sea state five as recorded by GPS, which is something that has been far
better than what the classic deep-V hull theory can reach.

To secure a truly hard-working boat in hard work, the vessel will be constructed just like the other many of our
KINGTOUGH boats to an extremely high commercial standard with particular attention to minimising noise
transference and vibration while enhancing structural rigidity and integrity, and offering best crew comfort and
mission-capability.

1.2 Design and Attributes

i. Vessel Layout:
The vessel is laid out with the hull to include one reinforced anti-collision fore peak tank, one void tank with
watertight access hatch for stowage of manual operated anchor and its dedicated nylon rope, one fuel tank
compartment and one void space for stowage of service items while the deck is laid out with open console covered
by hardtop to accommodate the control station with shock-mitigating seats for fourteen troops/passengers together
with lockers under the console station, one deck coaming with vertical hatch-accessed battery installation besides
two large-sized gravity draining ports to run through the portside and starboard bottom, and two lockers located
inboard of the raised bulwark on the fore deck at the bow as per shown in the GA drawings.

Taking in mind for intention of stable, efficient and long voyage navigation in the special adverse conditions of
today’s pilot boat operating profile, the vessel is specially laid out with best available ergonomics for improved
comfort, better sustained duty-efficiency and capability, highlighted as follows:

1. The console station is centrally located to offer a flexible platform for a variety of electronics while the fore
windows are designed to be forward facing so as to effectively and efficiently stop the burning sun from
shining directly onto the dashboard to secure easy and precision data obtaining from the instruments;.
 2. The deck is designed with 360 degree of walk around the whole console, featuring wide side decks and raised
deck bulwarks together with grab rails for unrivalled crew maneuvering safety in all handling conditions;
3. The collar is designed to be heavy-duty, over-sized EVA foam coated with 4mm elastomeric polyurethane, and
is to be bonded to the specially moulded D-shaped/half-round installation channel at the gunwale, thus
achieving best safety and durability to ensure the highest level of protection to the hull against strong,
frequent impact by other vessel in boarding/disembarking;

ii. Hull Form

The hull is well proven and will be variable deadrise deep V high performance planing in form, incorporating a fine
forward entry, two well immersed and full-length outer tunnels(also called revised reverse chine), extended waterline
length, wide chine beam, high freeboard, flared bow above waterline, slightly curved down buttock lines from stern
transom till 3/4 of waterline length, down angled and wide chine flats on bottom sides of the mid hull body, giving a
softer ride and safer handling with superior stability in all sea conditions, providing high speed maintained in waves
while also having capability to self correct when running in following seas.

iii. Seakeeping Ability:

iii.i Seakeeping Ability in Head Seas
Seakeeping ability in head seas for any planing hull is dependent on trim angle and deadrise of the V-shaped hull
bottom that encounters the wave. In our design, we have given strict control on longitudinal center of buoyancy(Lcb)
and Longitudinal center of gravity(Lcg) so that there will be no big change to distance between Lcb and Lcg no matter
at displacement speeds or fully planing speeds, making the vessel ride with extremely low trim at the bow, thus the
vessel will be able to run much flatter with the forward fine entry formed by approx. 65 deg. of high deadrise to be
always in best effective contact with water to efficiently cut through head seas, ensuring truly soft, smooth, high
speed and comfortable riding quality with no significant hull slamming even in high waves.

iv Seakeeping Ability in Following Seas, Side/Quartering Waves

Seakeeping ability of a planing hull in following seas, side/quartering waves is dependent on dynamic stability of the
vessel. No matter what type of boat it is, the dynamic stability of the vessel will be subject to the capability of the
underwater hull configuration in gripping/locking water so that the tracking course cannot be easily affected by
outside factors/forces generated by following seas and side/quartering waves. In order to achieve superior dynamic
stability for top quality in safety against steep following seas and side/breaking waves, below trade-offs have been
made in the hull form design:
1) Chine flats to be slightly down angled and well immersed into water till 3/4 of waterline length, which will work
with the deep V underwater main hull body and the two full-length outer hull tunnels to give superior grip to the
water to better enhance the stable tracking capability even in the event of being strongly impacted by breaking
waves.
2) Low L/B ratio on the well immersed chines to give dynamic beam to ensure high quality of running attitude no
matter in big following seas or breaking waves.
3) Each heavy equipment/machinery to be carefully selected and to be laid out at a possibly low position of the V
hull bottom with the wheelhouse and tank positioned close to the longitudinal center of gravity so as to lower down
the vertical center of gravity while also lock the position of longitudinal center of gravity of the vessel for improved
stability with little impact to the riding trim no matter what tank loading scenario it is, which is of vital importance in
maintaining high quality running in following seas, high speed turning and side waves.
4) High buoyancy bow with lots of flares above waterline to give superior response to waves even at crash stop to
ensure that the bow will not swamp when coming across with big, steep following and side waves, thus to also
achieve fully dry ride.

v. Static Stability:
The underwater hull section features low L/B ratio at the main chine, full-length outer hull tunnels and wide, slightly
down-angle chine flats, which will come to generate strong grip to the water with significant lateral resistance to
stop the vessel from rolling even in the event of moving weights casually distributed on the deck so as to get best-
in-class static stability always in place for top quality in safe boarding and disembarking.

vi. Damaged Stability:

The hull is divided by three watertight bulkheads to form four watertight sub-divisions to meet class and flag state
requirement for damaged stability and will remain afloat and upright with flooding in any single main compartment.

vii. Deck Condition:

The vessel is designed with high freeboard along the waterline length and incorporates with wide, slightly down-
angled reverse chine flats, spray rails, raised deck towards the bow and large draining port for gravity draining to
work with our unique bow to ensure truly dry deck at all speeds and maneuvering conditions.

viii. Quality of Comfort:

The hull has been carefully traded off using our technical insight with special attention to quality of confort to
ensure the crew and passegers in best energetic condition with high level of mission-concentration even after long-
time navigation:

1. The designed comparably low L/B ratio on the main chines gives best compromise for stability with high GM
figure to secure stable and comfortable riding.
2. The best-in-class control for riding trim helps secure the fine forward entry will be always in best contact with
water to smoothly and softly cut through waves which is another important factor in deciding real-world
riding confort in tough conditions due to the fact that hull slamming can be largely avoided.

ix. Strong Bow Protection:

The bow will be structurally reinforced to enhance abbrasion resistance and then to be externally protected with
over-sized, heavy-duty EVA foam collar in order to ensure that the bow structure can absorb all reasonable
loads/impacts transmitted and to give good seagoing abilities, ensuring extremely strong protection for pushing and
boarding mission.

x. Boarding Safety:
Particularly to cater boarding safety and low speed maneuvering quality, the vessel is designed to feature a bow
boarding platform with safety grab rails and push knee/cut-off bow protected by heavy-duty EVA foam collar as
shown in the GA drawings.

x. Attributes:
The vessel will be designed to provide the following attributes:
1) Shall be sea going and capable of undertaking sea voyages under its own power at any design loaded condition
