The only PP38 mold work I saw was the one that Sunsation got. I looked pretty close at it and it was pretty straight. I'd put it right there with the Formulas. My boatin buddy has a 353 and you can't find a wave in his sides or deck.

I agree... but I have seen in some of the build photos of other brands that were sanded straight... they didn't come that way out of the mold....... :D

Wasn't Rusty the full-time plug/mold builder? Koss was in Saudia Arabia or somewhere building fishing cats and had to leave and Weinstein gave him some side work. Actually, didn't Rusty even do the 33 and 25???
