Forward is the large V-Berth with the head just aft to Starboard. To Port you’ll find the spacious galley. Up and aft enter the salon with the helm to starboard and the settee to port.
The Keelform hull is the result of a science program of the University of British Columbia and Camano Marine. The goal of the program was the development of a hull which:
1 provides more speed with a given engine size;
2 reduces fuel consumption in the most widely used speed range -- between 12 and 18 knots;
3 can be stabilized to prevent the boat from rolling in rough seas without mechanical devices like stabilizers, etc. (Stabilizing should be possible at a low speed to avoid the hard pounding of normal semi-planing and planing hulls. In fact, the Keelform hull of the Camano 31 creates enough dynamic lift to stabilize the boat at a speed of only about 11 knots.)
4 runs 19-20 knots top speed and up to 18 knots cruising speed, with a single 200 hp Diesel engine; (At 8 knots the Camano 31 consumes just over 1.5 gallons of fuel and at 15 knots just over 6 gallons per hour, and it thus offers a fuel economy unmatched by any other hull form.)
5 provides a smooth, dry ride in rough water because of a special flare in the bow section of the Camano 31.
