: It's 15' foot long. 23" beam, very fine entry. Tried to minimize the
: hull resistance at the 3-4.5 mph range since that is where most people
: paddle. Settled on the a 14.5' water line after a lot of number crunching.
: That appears to be the sweet spot for this speed.

Looks very nice. What's the displacement/waterline info? Do you have more pictures somewhere? Did you hand loft or use software? Looking forward to your test results.
