: It looks like the widest point is around the ten ft station.

Typically I lean toward the Swede form. While I haven't looked that close this one is actually pretty neutral at the water line or maybe very slightly fish form? I may just leave this one pretty symmetrical. I was just playing around with shapes and narrowed the chines a little bit when I ran the numbers. I was so pleased I quit. I will probably ... heck, I know me, I will try a few minor tweaks before I build.
