Problem with that?
I mentioned before that the initial layer was just a shell to build off and multiple layers would be required
Um... the whole point is that the fabric wets out, it becomes a hard shell and is waterproof
I would have quite a bit more structural support I was simply trying to provide a quick example
if thicker skin... why remove frame work?
ok I hope you can see what i drew up, its crude but i'm making my point, take a typical flat bottom hull, if framed in longitudinal members you...
Maybe if I give a 3d cad this will be simpler, but basically a rigid, structural frame, wrap it in the absorbant material of choice, wet out the...
I greatly appreciate what everyone has to say, I wont pretend to know anything about boat design, I want to say that upfront, and I dont mean to...
So your saying just about any standard flat bottom hull given my 25-30mph speed goal is going to be most efficient and sufficient for what I want...

I know its not the best way, but i'm curious if anyone has tried it, the old car audio way. Make your frame as solid as possible, stretch...
hull is 7'x16', each cat has 12.5 degrees deadrise, tunnel is 12" wide by 6" tall and runs the length of the hull
Alright lets say a 16x8 hull, how tall x wide should the tunnel be and what would the advantages of a tunnel be
