60+Knots CRUISING SPEEDS - AND ULTRA SMOOTH STABILITY
ISLAND COMMUTE TO SHALLOW BAYS - FISH AND SCUBA DIVE, OR JUST RELAX
Hydro Lance Power Yachts never experience roll, heave, pitch, Yaw or Sway. Accordingly, at the beach, there is no chaffing or crunching on beach sand, or nearby rocks, due to the movement of ocean surf and waves. Of course, if you're in very shallow waters, you may still have to watch for the tides. Most HARTH designs include a hydraulic tail gate or section, that lowers to the ocean surface for the access of water sports, diving or a dinghy launch. Steps on the struts, or legs, allows for easy access to walking on the hulls to a dry beach. The smaller 'Sportster' above has seven times the fuel economy of conventional power yachts. Cruising speed for this craft, is 0-65 knots up to, and through, Beaufort Force 6 Sea State.

Matched Speed Aircraft Carrier (MSAC)
The low drag and high-speed capabilities of the HARTH hulls provide a speed capability suitable for business jet aircraft to gently land and take-off of the vessel. The vessel's speed nearly matches the landing speed of such aircraft. The forward speed of the yacht itself, effectively provides an INFINITELY long landing strip. Proprietary system designs captures the aircraft securely as the pilot shuts down his engines and the yacht slows down to then enjoy this tropical island environment. This routine practice is only possible because of the ultra-stability of the Hydro Lance yacht design. State-Of-The-Art electronics monitors weather and navigation constantly to assure the continued safety of the voyage. The speed of any HARTH vessel can outrun or circumnavigate any approaching storm, typhoon or hurricane.

Above: HARTH Conversion of Mono-Hull Yacht HARTH Mega Yacht - or Fast Ferry
Conventional wave slamming, heave, pitch and rolling boats can be converted to HARTH ocean-designed yachts, ferries and pleasure craft. Exampled above (left) is the conversion of a 46 foot mono-hull pleasure boat - and the result is the end of seasickness, having fast stable cruising speeds rated in high-seas, through the rating of the sea-state design for that vessel size. The above vessels are designed to operate as stable at the rated speed through Force 6 or 7 Sea-States. While this lowest-drag hull design can accommodate very high speeds with the customer specification and prime power options will determine the delivered speed capabilities. The modest power specifications of the above vessels provides stable ocean passage at 62 Knots having seven times better fuel economies.
However, mono-hull boats and ships require more structural strength added, during and for a HARTH conversion than some other vessel types, such as SES, Catamarans, SLICE, SWATH and Tri-Marans. This difference only means some additional initial cost impact.
