The invention relates to a catamaran hull system to improve performance characteristics. The catamaran hull system comprises a hull having a bow and a stern, at least one transverse step, and a posi-flow inductor system. The posi-flow inductor system includes an interior inductor channel extending vertically up the hull and terminating above a waterline when the hull is at rest, and a posi-flow cover plate attached to the hull and covering the interior inductor channel to form a posi-flow duct. This catamaran hull system provides a solution that reduces suction, improves air flow to the transverse step, and enhances overall hull efficiency. Overall, it offers improved performance, stability, and handling characteristics for catamaran vessels.
