surface effect ship, the generic name for a ship operating on the boundary of air and water. The range includes
hovercraft and
hydrofoils as well as wave-piercing
catamarans and
SWATH ships which are designed to cut through
waves instead of riding over them. Vessels which use the lift effect of water in close proximity to the hull are known as
wing-in-surface effect ships. For illus.
