Peter Unwin from England is adding a pad to his Coyote. He is on here once in a while but I can't remember his screen name. Has a 29OL on this side of the pond he put a carbon stabilizing "tail rudder" on it. Does a lot of out of the box ideas, he has also added a lifting wing to the front of the Coyote.

I also believe the guy who set out to have the worlds fastest 22 Donzi went to a pad. I believe there are some write ups and videos around here (OSO) ofthem somewhere,
edit in. Here is his U Tube Page Björn Carapi https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJ5...=dd&shelf_id=0 |
I’m adding a pad to my 25’ Checkmate. |
Thinking about doing a notch , no pad on my 31 since I am going to a SSM V. Thinking 8" up and 8" deep. Would be a pretty forward task for me since I am just about done gutting. My thinking was to build a plug with a 24 degree and that 8" x8" dimension and build part, cut out the hull and bond together with the new stringers.

Go for it! Especially if you like your Pantera. I have seen catamaran sponsons modified with a flat running surface.

there should already be a pad on the mate

Too much vee to do what I want it to.

Check out the pad on a tuff. Perfectly flat aside from a chine down its center. They fly |
