Long performance k-planes are usually tappered to reduce drag, and are only angled heavily on the drive side on narrow hulls or twin drives to clear the drives as they turn.

PS we should have started a seperate thread on this......huh

hang time 27 thanks for all the info. It will help me out a lot this fall and i hope that with all the new input i am getting from everyone i will have a nice fast and safe setup come springtime. I never even got a good speed run out of the boat this year before the drive gave out.

Sweet! Looks like a blast.....and looks like a cross between a 70's Sidewinder and a modern day sprint boat!

pump/transom area -- what pump is that, and why is the transom contoured to it?? Looks custom.......
