Most noseriders feature a basic concave nose of approx. 30-40" at the nose. What would be the effect if the concave ran much longer; continuing and gradually became shallower ending at the begining of the fins? Anyone do this?

How about if; as the concave nears the fin area, it not only becomes shallower but narrower too? Maybe down to a couple inches wide as it tapers off to flat, in front of the center fin? The effect?>>> …isn’t that how the Stewart HydroHulls are built(with chine > rails)?Herb

The effect? . …It might cause it to be alittle sluggish is slow stuff,but when it picked-up a little energy it might take off,don’t know til you try it kinda thing.Herb
