Schooner Creek built an almost bulletproof boat,with the wood and foam

How did he accomplish that? I know Wylie is a good naval architect,
but AFIK all other boats of that sort use airbags that lift the stern
to make them unstable upside down.
It's a lot less beamy and has a big "bubble" type coachroof.
