Built a skiff with a stepped hull and tubes to introduce air into the

I've seen this tried on multihulls too. I've been told that it is difficult to
design a step so that it doesn't cripple the boat below certain speed
thresholds, or so that it's not very sensitive to longitudinal trim. Did you
have to play around with it much?

I like the idea, the step and the tubes both would help make the hull more
rigid.

Sucking up to Oz1 are you, Navvie©? You're still a bad loser and a welsher.
