We have narrowed down our hunt and I'm trying to sort out a short list of makes and models, some are very helpful and state the design of hull in the adverts, most don't...!!! Googling produces some results but most of the time nothing definitive and sometimes conflicting information.....
Is there any list of what boat has what hull shape, we fancy a displacement hull, it's sometimes obvious from the quoted cruising speed that the hull is a planing hull, some have pictures of the boat on the hard so you can see what it's got but some brokers list them with little or no information....
One more question, I understand the differences between the Displacement, Semi-displacement and Planing hull, where does the Modified "V" hull fit in and what are it's pro's and con's, again googling provides conflicting information??
Thanks
