The middle 8 or so forms look ok but the last 4 or so on each end have quite a sharp V hull shape that would be slightly more difficult to handle in white water and the sharp V would also be susceptible to damage.

But what the hey! Give it a whirl or maybe dick around with the end forms a bit. If you're careful, I bet you'll get an acceptable result.

I'm building a surf/playboat to my own design and having a heck of a good time. And no matter what mine eventually performs like, it'll still float and will be worth the effort. And it would be for you. Just plan first.
