    The shapes of furniture foundations and storage compartments in boats take peculiar geometric shapes because of the square spaces within the boat's hull. Naval architects find the fine entry lines of sailboats and powerboats particularly challenging to design, in ways that may not be apparent to the untrained eye. Spaces that appear generous in accommodation or floor plans may not exist at all when viewed in cross section, as the V and round shapes of hulls produce oddly shaped lockers and berths.

    FIGURE 8-3

    Because there are Jew square shapes inside a boat, furniture foundations and stowage compartments assume some peculiar geo-
    metric shapes. The fine entry lines of both sailboats and powerboats are particularly challen^ng to naval architects, and often-
    times unfathomable to the untrained eye. The space that appears to be generous in the accommodation or floor plan may not be
    there at all when viewed in cross section. Notice how the V and round shapes of these hulls produce oddly shaped lockers and
    berths. (From Yacht Style, by Dan Spurr. International Marine, 1990)
