Looking at your drawing my guess is tha the flat bottom will create a
lot of bow steer and the transom will create a lot of drag. Curve the
bottom so that the stem is above the WL and the transom is right at
the DWL and I think you have a winner.

Two points:

1--that Freeship model still posted is not what I am considering now, I
haven't done a freeship model of the "latest design" pram yet.

2--that model also doesn't show the floor, or seating arrangement. I
need to put up a new diagram, it is easier to show than explain. The
seating and floor arrangement I want has not changed from the first
design...
