What do you think about the shape of the hull and having no rocker in general nowing the width? Sail mast and rudders will be placed nearer to leeward hull like on proa squared.800lbs at 4'' depth CP.701
weight of hull 250-350 +/-... Intended load carrying 900lbs for entire boat. 4oo sqft 40/60 split fractional rig on a 33' stick
