It seems you're looking for someone to back up your idea. I can not do that based on the parameters you outline in post #114. If you want a...
A 9hp outboard on a bracket would run shallower than side-mounted paddle wheels. A Paceship isn't very big or overly heavy like a full keel boat.
True and I get what you're saying. Very true and dampening those motions as much as possible is my goal. That makes perfect sense. I can...
