    I am a fresh (Naval Architecture and marine engineer), my studies concentrated on merchant and steel vessels, I have a small background on plan hull preformance and generation, so I am looking for a technical book on yacht design especially plan hull yachts, I want to learn about how can I generate a plan hull and how hull shape affects performance

    For example:
    (the effect of dead rise angle and its variation along the hull)
    (Longitudinal curvature along the buttocks)
    (Shape of the chine in plan and profile view)
    (Variation of "V" along the hull from deep V to Shallow V)

    need ur recommandations plz
