Can someone explain the difference between a TriHull and a Tri-Vee hull?

Been searching glassics but ran across a mid 80's model boat and they told me it had a Tri Vee hull? its on a baja sun sport?

Same thing, different words. Some said tri-vee when the center vee was much larger, but many mfr's did the same design and called them tri hulls. Just wording.

I have a Glasspar Tempest which they call a Tri-V-Hull. From what I can tell from looking at other traditional Tri-hulls is the tunnel between the center keel and outer keels is not as deep on the Tri-Vees and runs only halve way back of the hull toward the transom. The outer keels V inward toward the center tip of the bow. Where Tri-hull outer keels run straight with no inward V toward the center. Plus the center keel is lower then the outer keels. Someone here mentioned that Tri-V maybe a variation of the Aqua-Lift first designed by Glastron.
