A technical test and evaluation of the Bell-Halter 110-Foot Surface Effect Ship (SES) demonstration craft was performed during an intensive 30-day test period in the Norfolk, Virginia area. Comparative seaworthiness and towing tests were performed with an 82-foot USCG WPB. Other major test categories yielded speed, range, fuel consumption, directional stability, turning, acceleration, and noise characteristics. Limited maintainability and reliability information was compiled and manning and human factors considerations were studied. (Author)
