It seems that deadrise has a radical effect on the ability of a boat

economy in smaller seas. I assume that variable deadrise has been
tried.

(and amusing) thing to watch these so-called "spokesmen of Christ"
defending their morally indefensible positions these days. Finally -
they're going away. It seems an answer to a prayer. Thank you, Lord.
