Who would be closest to StLouis that knows what they are doing to blue print a Nordic Rage hull?

OK

Obviously I am looking for the closest that does the good work. I would travel as far as required to get the good work.

I just checked my 25 foot Nodic Rage hull with a five foot rule (too long). It appears that I have a gradual hook of about an 1/8 inch max from the step hull to about one foot from the stern edge where the hull reverses and falls away to about a 1/16 inch at the stern edge. What is the prognosis?

How much mph drag would these hull dimensional imperfections create for high 70's.

Still looking for an answer.

Using the SWAG theory (Simple Wild Ass Guess) I would estimate 2 mph to 4 mph. My father has blue-printed the bottoms of his Magum, Pantera, Cigarette, Donzi (the Phantom bottom did not need and sanding). The Donzi was a mid-60 mph boat and gained 2 mph, I do not remember the how much speed, if any, was gained on the other boats.
