hull blue printing
Does anyone know of a place in central tx to get their hulls fixed? I have been reading alot about "hooks" in the hulls of boats and how it can really affect performance and handling. while i dont know if i have anything wrong with mine, id like to have someone look at it since when I get it to 65 it tends to be a wild ride.

Be careful and get several opinions before tinkering with your hull. We did it a bunch when racing outboards but we were dealing with small, lightweight (450lbs) boats. Some larger hulls may have been purposely designed with somewhat of a "hook" to affect planing and handling characteristics. Making the bottom completely straight can make them a very wicked handling ride. Very hard to drive. Just do your homework.
