Abstract :	[en] The recent development of medium-speed monohull passenger ferries has shown their importance for certain routes. The aim of the intensive studies performed in the recent years is to fulfil the pending technical and environmental issues concerning the HSC crafts. They operate at the Froude number range of 0.55 to 0.80 which is beyond the last hump of the wave resistance curve. In fact, they need a high power to maintain their operation speeds. The present project is to find the best design based on the layout of the passenger arrangement and the hull form configurations. The layout includes the seat arrangement and the distribution of passengers at the main and upper decks. Due to the lack of design data base of those kinds of semi-planning ships, a parent ship of 250 passengers is considered in this study. During the design process, the rules and mandatory issues are taken into account. The results of the design parameters and general layout of a series of parent ships are presented in this paper. The results will be applied in a future parametric study, particularly to find the best layout and hull form with the minimum engine power. Keywords: Ship design, general arrangement, engine power, passenger vessel
