This research work attempts to develop a method to design a high-speed shallow draft vessel. The work is fundamentally performed into three segments: developing a performance prediction method for propeller where the data of a surface piercing propeller is collected from a convenient source, secondly calculation of the resistance of the vessel at designed ship speed and finally the principal parameters of the vessel are determined, where the resistance experienced by the vessel at design ship speed is balanced by the thrust developed by the propeller at the appropriate operating condition. The developed method is a different way to find the principal particulars of a ship which is distinct (reverse method) from the traditional approach. Predicted resistance from the performance prediction method and traditionally calculated resistance from the selected vessel are almost same which indicates that this method is suitable for designing high-speed shallow draft vessel.
