Free surface condition of surface wave is considered on free surface itself instead of mean free surface, by use of coordinate transformation, together with scheme of systematic expansion in small parameter; thus higher order ship wave theory is developed; most common practical case of slender ship with almost flat bottom is especially treated in detail; lowest order result is same as that given by Michell's theory; next higher order potential and wave resistance are derived explicitly.
