hey if anyone is wondering...

I built a yare quite awhile ago and just yesterday I got it out in some 4 or 5 foot chop just so I could see how it went. That boat is the best surfing 16 foot boat I'v ever been in. it surfed so well that I think I might wnt to scale it up a bit raise the deck and use it for ocean surfing. it was a blast in 4 footers and it would be sooo awesome in 6 or more. mine has an almost flat section in the middle. (don't ask) and it seemed to be trying to get up on plane :P weeeee

just thaught I'd throw this out there so people know about the capavbilitys of the boat
