Black and white photo of the bottom of MISS UNITED STATES III, suspended on a crane. Several people can be seen beneath the boat observing. A caption on the verso reads, "MULTI-PLANE HULL DESIGN-A unique combination of modern hull designs is incorporated in the marine research laboratory to test advanced design marine products. Miss United States III's hull is divided into shallow steps composed of several vee-shaped planing surfaces designed to lift the power boat to its maximum planing position. The 21-foot-long propeller shafts are made of fatigue-proof steel. Miss United States III was built as a high speed laboratory to test advanced design marine products."
