English term or phrase: deadrise
Definition from marinewaypoints.com:
The measurement of the angle between the bottom of a boat and its widest beam. A vessel with a 0º deadrise has a flat bottom, high numbers indicate deep V shaped hulls.

Example sentence(s):
  • There are, however, many good reasons for choosing a V bottom hull over a flat one. Someone experienced in observing these wave patterns might infer the angle of deadrise just from looking at the waves generated by the boat. bluejacketboats.com
  • A higher deadrise angle will give better performance in rough waters, but a lower deadrise angle is more hydrodynamically efficient and thus can generate better acceleration and a faster top speed. Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
  • This transducer’s unique design allows it to be mounted close to the vessel’s centerline without drilling holes, and is able to correct for the hull’s deadrise angle. Airmar Technology Corporation
