Abstract
The article shows that a rectilinear motion of ground effect vehicle (GEV) is not optimal by the criterion of fuel efficiency through the use of ground effect. In strongly disturbed sea, GEV should attempt the smooth lateral maneuvers with availability to move as much as possible over the cavities of waves instead of moving over the crests of waves. This reduces the average geometric altitude and the ground effect operates strongly, reducing fuel consumption.
