Hi All-
I am seeking some education. I have been following some build threads, have been doing research and using the search function, but I wanted to post this to clear up a few questions I still have that relate to the basics of building a flat-water freestyle hull.
I know there is some give-ins that are pretty much mandatory, like having a lightweight hull or foot holes, but with those aside, what other hull features do you all consider a necessity for flat-water freestyle?
The purpose of this thread is to list and uncover things I might otherwise overlook and regret it. For example, a rockered nose… is this a mandatory feature, and if so what does it provide? I seek a list of key features that is considered standard and would be required in a successful flat-water hull design.
The basics of “What” and “Why” would greatly help me understand these features so that I can start this project off in the right direction.
Thank you in advance.
