This is my basic design (larger than life) - its gona be a lil wider on the water line - and be more like Aqua - designed so sub planning its running with the wider part in the water, as it gets faster- raises up to be fully planning on the smaller surface area. Itll have a 12ft skiff No.2 rig on it and sailed two up. & a little secret too.............................

More thoughts. Same principle, a 7ft6 boat wth a V'd bow transom giving some sharpness. There's not enough rocker I don't think though. I doubtUI'll build anything, the singlehander bit des't appeal.

What the LOA for an oppie? Could be a cheap starting point for people to bolt rigs onto (perhaps with a bit of reinforcement)
