ASV hulls would dramatically improve ship efficiency by riding on a cushion of air

ASV hulls would dramatically improve ship efficiency by riding on a cushion of air: "A European project is developing new Air Support Vessel (ASV) hull designs that allow watercraft to ride on a cushion of air to greatly reduce friction between the hull and the water, resulting in more hull speed for less power than conventional designs."
