I've seen this phrase several times here in Rec.Boats, and I was
curious to what they are.

I take it , the phrase is mentioned to describe craft with a more
modern "styling?

Imagine two boxes with one end pointed, the other end flat one on top
of the other, then put a V bottom on it and that's a "Bubble" Boat.

Advantages are than interior space is maximized. Disadvantages are
extreme leeward windage and virtually no deck space that can be safely
accessed from the stern.

Translation: Not enough flat deck for scantily clad women to stretch out on,
with their hot, oiled bodies glistening in the sun.

What to hell would I ever want one for then??!
