: Joey really wanted to win the lottery so he prayed to God
: constantly. Every day,"Dear God, please let me win the
: lottery!" Over and over and over again.

: One day in the midst of prayer he heard a booming voice from above.
: "Joey, meet me half way. Buy a ticket."

: This suggests that if you do not supply enough pertinent data you
: cannot expect an informed reply. There are many knowledgeable
: people on this forum who like to help others, but they are not
: psychic. Do your part and I am sure you will get help.

: Soooo, what Bill said. Rocker is seriously important. And
: dimensions would be nice, such as baseline to top of gunwale and
: baseline to front and back of cockpit. Width, how wide is it?
: The chines appear to be fairly far apart; what is that
: dimension?

: Respectfully, Bob

Chine breadth is a whopping 46cm at its max. Width as mentioned in OP is about 20.5". Centerline depth to deck is 10.5 at front of cockpit, 7.5" at rear.

No need to get too crazy here. I'm just looking for casual but informed opinions to see if the theoretical is in line with my seat of the pants experiences, which are still somewhat limited condition-wise.
