    There are books and websites on them. Hickman revolutionazed hull design. Unfortunately he was too pigheaded to accept market realities.

    Tell us about your impressions of your new boat, is it running? I think you'll find quite a bit of interest.

    There was an article on the Hickman sea sled in WoodenBoat magazine issue #100 May-June 1991.
