In this paper an overview will be presented of some of the specific design aspects and the pros and contras of the various high speed design concepts with respect to their hydrodynamic behavior and more in particular their behavior in waves. Special attention will be given to the nonlinear behavior of fast craft with respect to the waves. This will be demonstrated using as an example the motions of a fast planing monohull in waves. Various sources of the nonlinear behavior will be discussed. The implications of nonlinear behavior with respect to operability will be discussed.
