Polynomial representations and damping coefficients for the Series 60 Block .60, .70 and .80 hull forms are presented. Several polynomials are given, ranging from 48 to 140 terms and providing varying degrees of accuracy as analytic representations of the hull forms. Damping coefficients based upon these polynomials are presented, for various frequencies and Froude numbers, and compared with experimental data. The agreement between experimental and theoretical coefficients is generally good.
