flat-bottom
Barge hull shape
Flat-bottom describes a boat or vessel with a level hull rather than a V-shaped or rounded keel.
Flat-bottom boats sit stable in shallow water and are common for fishing, river transport, and swamp navigation: a flat-bottom johnboat, a flat-bottom skiff.
The design trades rough-water performance for accessibility in calm, shallow environments.
