Good eye! I thought that line on the hull looked funny. Mine is under 4 feet of snow, so I could only go by memory.

I keep thinking about building sponsons for my 25, and think I know how I might build them, but not sure what shape. But that spray rail/ strake thing is another feature. Was that for the one that had a big diesel in it, maybe pushed forward. So that might not be needed on something with a puny SBC in it?
