Abstract

The lack of proper tourism infrastructure often limits the potential of marine ecotourism. In Karimunjawa, coral reef tourism is a major attraction. However, accessibility remains an issue, especially for visitors who cannot swim or dive. This research focuses on the design and construction of a glass-bottom leisure boat prototype to provide a safe and immersive underwater panorama experience. This study falls within naval architecture and marine engineering, addressing the challenge of designing a stable, efficient, and safe tourism vessel. A key concern in ship design is balancing hydrodynamic efficiency with stability. While monohull boats are common, their transverse stability is relatively low. To overcome this, a catamaran hull configuration was chosen for better stability, larger deck space, and reduced resistance. The prototype was constructed with dimensions of 21.81 m in length, 2.63 m in height, and 7.51 m in width, featuring a glass-bottom viewing area to enhance the tourism experience. Hydrodynamic performance analysis showed an average increase in resistance of 12.39307 N as speed increased, demonstrating the vessel’s efficiency. The construction and testing process confirmed that the catamaran hull improves passenger safety, minimizes capsizing risk, and enhances the underwater viewing experience. This research contributes to sustainable marine tourism by introducing an innovative tourism ride that allows visitors to explore the underwater beauty of Karimunjawa without requiring diving skills. The successful design and construction of this prototype provide a model for future eco-aafriendly tourism vessels.
