Drawings:The Kingston Series has been in our product line since 1987 and has had many successes, primarily in the Patrol boat market. The boat has been powered with outdrive, outboard, inboard, and inboard jet. It has been produced in size ranges from 22’ to 54’. The boat has very good handling characteristics in terms of tracking, speed out of the hole, wave handling, and turning radius.
The Kingston Series hull shape is a monohedron with a Delta Pad lifting plane (copyright 1987), and was originally designed for convertability to either jet or propellor propulsion. Its center tapered bottom planing flat is mandatory for clean water flow to center mounted jet intakes for prevention of cavitation. It increases flow to a twin installation and has proven unmatched for a triple jet or I/O installation. Through development it was discovered to be a major design component for jet and conventional drive systems for many areas of boat performance, primarily resulting in less hull drag, thus reducing horsepower and fuel, essentially a more efficient hull.
The Kingston design was selected by the USCG and the USN for multi-year contracts.
The Kingston Series is offered on our US Government GSA Federal Supply Schedule Contract NO. GS07F0084J.
