Hold on there Pete, I claim no ownership. "my 16" is actually a 16 with 1/2" taken off, you should see the other 16s that have been tweaked. It seems that those boats are kind of the VWs of kayak building. Now that's bound to offend someone, but I still would like a mid 80's vanagon with kayaks on top. I know what you mean by hull slapping, my Express does that.
