    I thought this was interesting. Its boats racing around Bermuda with 6hp seagull outboards. Some things I noted, a lot of plumb bows (or close to it) LCG pretty far forward (passengers) and narrow.

    I tried my design idea on another forum. 26/30 thought it was a bad idea... I guess I am the crazy one.
