Preliminary design of passenger boat to operate around Seberang Takir

Abstract

This paper describes a preliminary design of passenger boat to operate around Seberang Takir, Kuala Terengganu. Furthermore, the prototype of monohull is selected with suitable number of passengers. This project includes a methodology to predict the boats performance by using Maxsurf software program based on required input data that have been measured manually from Seberang Takir Jetty. The lines plan and general arrangement plan will be generated from Maxsurf-Pro and Auto- cad design methods and processes are discussed detailed in this study. Through this project has made a comparison between two passenger boats that exist in Seberang Takir in terms of performance, design and materials and at the end of this project has been determined that the boat is suitable with the environment and feasible to operate at that area.
