: upward stringer curvature will be lost while sitting on the ground, your

Except for commercial folders which have that ugly "hogged" look, even while on water!!

: I've seen some Greenland designs that could

: has lots of rocker if I remember correctly, but I don't recall the shape at the Gunwales.

Quite a bit of flare between chine and gunwale. No drastic increase in flare at stem/stern. So does flare cause potential problems with overflexing or reflex?
