A twin-hull boat equipped with a pair of transverse hydrofoils 4 and 5 which are respectively secured to the bottom surface of twin-hull structures 3A and 3B adjacent the stem and stern. A pair of auxiliary wings 6A and 6B are installed opposite to each other at predetermined positions on the internal wall surfaces of the twin-hull structures 3A and 3B mutually facing the hull center line and at a predetermined height between the upper water line formed in the course of low-speed cruising and the lower water line formed in the course of high-speed cruising. The twin-hull boat incorporates a postural angle regulating device 15 to properly regulate the postural angle of the auxiliary wings 6A and 6B by causing them to pivot about a horizontal axis.

A twin-hull boat comprising two laterally spaced apart longitudinally extending hull structures with a longitudinal center line of the twin-hull boat between the two hull structures and having stem and stern hydrofoils extending between the two hull structures and wherein each of said hull structures has an internal wall facing the center line, comprising: a pair of auxiliary wings each having a proximal end and a distal end secured at a position in front of said stem and stern hydrofoils, said positions of the auxiliary wings being such that they are submerged under water in the course of low-speed cruising below an upper water line which is defined as the water line when the boat is cruising at a first relatively low speed and come up out of the water in the course of accelerating to high-speed cruising above an upper water line which is defined as the water line when the boat is cruising at a second relatively high speed in excess of the first speed, the proximal end of said auxiliary wings being fixed to the internal walls of said respective hull structures, the distal ends of said auxiliary wings being projected toward the center line of said twin hull; and a postural angle regulating device for properly regulating the postural angle of said auxiliary wings by causing said auxiliary wings to respectively pivot on a horizontal axis perpendicular to the length of said twin hull.
