        abstract = {This paper presents an investigation of Rudder Shaped-Like (RSL) hull configurations with low-drag characteristic using the resistance model tests and numerical analysis. The new design of the floating platform using three hulls with a self-manoeuvring system as Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) and capable of collecting the same data as a hydrography boat is needed. This platform was designed with three hulls placed in a triangle position in the form of rudder shape and vertically placed as a slender body shape using National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) 0012 profile. This provides the low-drag characteristic to USV. The results from the experimental and numerical analysis revealed that a larger configuration distance between three hulls leads to a reduction in resistance of the same speed. This result may help to accomplish the required concept design related to low-drag and minimum power operation. {\copyright} 2020 PENERBIT AKADEMIA BARU - All rights reserved}
