A stepped rib boat is a boat that features a stepped hull design. 

A stepped hull is characterized by one or more steps or platforms along the bottom of the hull. 

These steps are usually oriented horizontally or nearly horizontally, breaking up the smooth curve of a traditional hull. 

Ribs, on the other hand, are internal structural elements that support the hull's shape.


Improved Performance: 

The steps on the hull reduce the wet surface when the boat is on plane. 

When the boat is on plane, it is moving fast enough that it rides on a cushion of air and water on the bottom. 

The stepped design traps air under the hull, reducing drag. In fast powerboats, 

for example, this can significantly increase speed and fuel efficiency compared to a non-stepped hull design.

Improved Stability: 

Ribs play a vital role in maintaining the stability of the boat. 

They evenly distribute the boat's loads and help resist deformation in different sea conditions. 

A stepped hull also helps with stability to some extent. 

By reducing the wet area, the boat is less affected by waves and cross currents, making for more stable sailing.
