I am not trying to start an argument or war, I am just trying to get the facts and state my opinions. I would not resort to name calling. I would not say anyone is "dense" for stating their opinions of for forgetting something.

I am guessing that he was referring to using a pad bottom design at the transom? I am by no means an expert, but I belive that the hull on many Step hull boats flattens out into a pad at the transom. From what I have seen Cigarette step hulls do not. Just a guess I am still hung over from last night and barely able to sit upright and type right now.

A pad keel hull has a flat (or less than 24 degree) section on the keel.
These are rear views of a traditional hull. The bottom image has a 0 flat pad. The pad could be greater than 0 degrees.
Some claim pads are faster, and others claim pad ride harder.
