Abstract
Large Passenger Ferry has been delivered with a tendency of high speed since 1990´s. More than 50 ferries that exceed 25 knots in service speed are operating or under construction these days. Therefore, the hull form development for the large size ferry should be carefully carried out with some design points such as high service speed, severe criteria for stability, and complex design of appendages. This paper reviewed principal particulars and hull form characteristics of a high-speed large passenger ferry. It is also suggested the optimization method of hull form and appendages in point of resistance & propulsion performance. Finally, it is also introduced a high-speed large passenger ferry developed by Samsung Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., the key design points in hull form development.
