The article considers the passenger transport features by high-speed vessels, shows the high-speed passenger catamarans share from the total number of passenger vessels under construction. The most common layout solutions brief overview used in newly built passenger catamarans design is given. Statistical data on the high-speed passenger ferries design characteristics are provided. Based on these data, a range of main dimensions and design characteristics related to this type of vessel is formulated. Recommendations are given for using the obtained empirical dependencies in the high-speed passenger catamarans designing process.
