Default Re: Bracket vs hull extension vs stretch????

Hull lengthening changes the hull rocker, which affect the angle of attack when coming on plane, planing and when falling off plane. With the VDH hull I would think you would positively have to have a pad or flat planing surface extended on the keel to enhance longitudinal stability, and lessen wetted surface drag. The alternative would be calculating hull rocker and building that into your extension.
