051130-N-9866B-003 San Diego (Nov. 30, 2005) - An aerial view of the experimental Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull (SWATH) ship “Sea SLICE” as it returns to its homeport of Naval Station San Diego. SLICE is a new, patented ship technology that enables SWATH ships to operate at higher speeds while retaining their characteristic low motions in a seaway. SLICE technology’s key innovation is reduction of wavemaking drag, which is accomplished by its four teardrop-shaped submerged hulls. U.S. Navy photo by Journalist 2nd Class Zack Baddorf (RELEASED)
