A boat is provided with an elongated vane extending along each side of the hull. This vane is supported in a closely spaced relationship with the hull\s surface to define a longitudinally extending slot. The vanes so positioned reduce the tendency of the boat hull to drift out on turns, by biting into the water. These vanes may be provided with mechanisms to close off the slot when not needed.

A boat having a hull, and means on each side of the hull to reduce the tendency of the boat to drift out during a turn in either direction, the means on the right side of the hull biting into the water and reducing the tendency of the boat to drift out in a direction toward the left side during a turn to the right side and the means on the left side of the hull biting into the water and reducing the tendency of the boat to drift out in a direction toward the right side during a turn to the left side, each said means including: an elongated vane extending substantially longitudinally of said hull; and means for supporting said elongated vane in relatively closely spaced relationship from said hull over a major portion of the length thereof, whereby said vane and said hull form therebetween an elongated, substantially longitudinally extending, relatively narrow slot through which water can flow laterally outwardly from beneath the central portion of the hull during a turn of the boat.
