The Slip
(By Jim Snyder)

Meet the SLIP
This is a serious Downtime machine and geared towards Mystery Zombies , It's adaptable to the ever-changing conditions in the Dark Realm.  This makes it easier to deal with and so saves energy.  And Zombies need all the energy they can get!

The Jim Snyder design exploits the virtues of elliptical ends.  An ellipse is the tightest circle you can draw around two points ( a pure circle is the tightest perimeter for one point).  This helps ensure there are no extra bumps or flats in the perimeter-  it's tight !.   Jim worked on this design for over 14 months adding speed and developing the tool area in the ends of the boat.  The Slip features a “shy” bow (narrow at the feet).  This is a benefit for light legged people and also helps keep the bow dense- as the bow has a fixed vertical height based on your ergonomics and can only be reduced to a fixed size.  The Slip hull still has the two small divots in the bow but has a ‘soft' (smooth- no divot) stern to get maximum drop at neutral angles of attack.

The bow and stern are exactly the same length for drag balance underwater.
