[QUOTE="rcgreat, post: 64058, member: 872"] That not what Im talking about. I will try to be clearer. Last time I was in a aluminum V-hull (12ft 36" beam 7.5 hp outboard) many years ago with two people fishing. Up on plane the boat would hook real bad almost throwing you out of the boat if you were not holding on. We tried moving gear around, tilting motor, etc and nothing seemed to help. Eventually the boat was sold. Now I'm looking to get another boat and I'm scared to go thru that again especially now that my kids could possibly be in the boat. So Im thinking that I should stick with a flat bottom even though it seems that V-hulls are more common in my area. Im sorry for my first being so vague.....please forgive me :) [/QUOTE]
