blue printing bottom
 

Has anybody ever blueprinted the bottom of their boat? How is it done, and how much difference does it make?

Now thats one I'd like to know also:confused: .

I talked with a guy that had the same boat as me, a 28 Scarab Excel but with 750 hp. he said he spent a few thousand on blueprinting and got no speed gains at all. But that's not true on all boats.

I am in the process of re-doing the bottom of mine. While removing the bottom paint I found some areas that need fixed as well as what appears to be a hook on one side only. I have not yet put the straight edge to it yet as there is still paint on the side with the hook. I have a couple pics in the "miss" section. I will be posting progress (or lack of) reports.
