============================================

A true deep-V will carry the deadrise aft to the stern. What you have
is basicaly a flat bottomed boat which is sometimes referred to
euphemistically by the builders as a "modified-V". That's not
necessarily a bad thing but it emphasizes speed and fuel efficiency at
the expense of rough water capability and smooth ride. You should be
fine in protected water which is what the boat was built for.

How much did you save by building the trailer yourself? Nice job but
it looked like a lot of work.
