Researchers, over the yeats, have employed varicus means to solve this problem but sith low precision on the behavior of such vessel at transition. This study, however, employed appropriate theory to simulate the character of high-speed eraft as she transits ftom bow-wetting to full planing, ‘The variations of performance parameters and their characteristic contours Were computed using computer. based analytical model, The obtained results and graphs showed clearly the dramatic changes in trend of resistance variables, trim and Reynolds’ number, particularly doring transition, These generated results compared with those obtained by model tests and numerical simulations were found to be in good agreement Finally, it established that during the short period of transitions all hydrodynamic performance variables altered
