A tumblehome is a design feature in ships wherein the sides show a convex curvature on the bottom portion and continue up in a slightly concave line on the upper portion of the ship. If the ship were to be cut in a cross section, its shape would resemble that of a pear, with its lower half larger than the upper half. In design terms, the tumblehome is the direct opposite of the flare, which features a more concave curvature that makes for a V-shaped water vessel. (mad river canoe)
