Hi Eric

You are a wealth of knowledge on hull design. My company works with CFD programs regarding mass airflow. Similarities to water flow and airflow are remarkable. Difference between gas, fluid, and solid is usually just a matter of temperature. Hotter things get, faster molecules move, more fun it becomes!

Thumb nail is pict duplicate bottom to my Tolly... not my exact boat though... simply because I never took a pict.

She planes real nice and yet is economical at just below what calcs at hull speed, especially with only one screw turning at a time. Great to see and learn about all these bottoms.

Thanks! Art
