A pad is a small, flat area of the hull located directly on the keel near the transom. It is used on high performance boats like bass boats to improve speed and handling at high speeds. Check out Chinewalker's latest project for a clear view of a "pad" on this type of boat: New Projects for this Winter! Good luck!

Looks similar to a skatcraft, a speedboat from the early 70's, but the side 'window' was a little different IIRC.
ALso the boats in the James Bond movie in the bayou were all Glastrons.
