Was it just a matter of blueprinting? I thought the molds were redesigned and the steps were moved back?

The strakes were ground off I believe about 16" back to fix the early ones... But the 01 and up models may have had the steps moved?

Strakes were cut off back and they ground out as much of the hook in last 4' of the hull as they could. It made some improvement but still wasnt right. In late 2000 they switched to puting a rocker in the hull to help with the handling problems.
