[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 503360, member: 3278"] [B]Again, not true. This should be simple. If you have a 6' wide bottom on a boat and one is flat and one is a vee hull which one has more square inches of surface area? Surface area is drag, period. Vee hulls alone have very little inherent lift unless lift strakes are added (that is another hint for you) but they are designed for softer rides since the vee design does not lift and bang over each wave compared to a flat bottom.
