Nick,
I've lofted out the free downloaded bairdarka from your site and I want to increase the width from 17" to around 19 or so. I copied the drawings at a 15% increase which gives me the width but also increases the height/ depth as well. Secondly, if I space the forms the 1 foot apart will the hull be fair. What are your thoughts? My goal is to have a boat that's exciting but with a reasonable initial stability. I would rather not extend the legnth past 19' if possible. Thanks again.
cheers
rick
