The high-speed displacement vessels of round-bilge, transom-stern hull form have been widely used for various naval application. Inspired by industry interest, systematic research leading to the better performance prediction of these vessels has been conducted at the Australian Maritime Engineering Cooperative Research Centre (AMECRC). This paper presents the analysis of the calm water experiments of the AMECRC systematic series of high-speed displacement monohulls. The series consists of 14 models based on the MARIN HSDHF systematic series. Speed independent regression analysis was performed and two independent sets of regression equations were derived from the same set of experimental data. The regression analysis was developed using a 'classical', multiple linear regression analysis, as well as a novel technique-nonlinear estimation. The latter presents a generalization of the former and enables any form of regression model and loss function to be explored. The nonlinear estimation approach proved to be superior. Evaluation of the developed prediction methods is presented, together with some regression equations regarding the series' geometry. A unique data presentation method, particularly useful for systematic series data is presented. It enables single-chart visualisation of multiparameter variations.
