As you say, Tom, the finer fwd sections would compromise interior space to some extent. It can also lead to handling problems when running with a sea. I have tried to counter both by running quite wide chines and by incorporating a "secondary chine". This increases the hull volume fwd and will also help keep the boat a bit drier.

To clarify Nomad, you voted for Composite w/Core rather than Flat Panel Multi-Option because you would want to be free to design with curvature / non-developable surfaces?

For aesthetics or quantifiable/performance/handling reasons?
