Hatteras 58 LRC with Speed Bulb

[@patrickbray1439]

We designed that bulb. It will reduce fuel consumption 12% or give you 12% greater range as well as reduce pitching up to 30%. We do more work with bow bulbs on pleasure craft than anyone else in North America, over 60 vessels from 40' - 150'.

Where is your shop or area of work. This boat had the DD 71 series engines and a ton of fuel. I have been aboard a few bulbous bow boats including Nordhavns and commercial fishermen trawlers.

Good morning

[@AskCaptainChris]

Great morning. We have the windows and doors open and the house is 69 degrees. We are wearing long pants and socks, we love winter!

[@walterdavis4808]

@@AskCaptainChris it's a sunny 30s. Beautiful sunrise today . Beautiful stary nights too ! But 69 sounds nice!

I’d paint that to have “one eye” to scare fish out of my way😆😆

[@AskCaptainChris]

May want to rethink that. The dolphins love to swim on the pressure wave caused by the bulbous bow. Add transom lights to the stern for night cruising and attract fish to your lures!
