: Mike,
: I did not post the query to start yet another moral debate on hull
: flopping. However, if this method/technique is doable then the
: resultant hull would not be an exact copy. Sure, some of the
: original geometry would transfer to the new boat e.g rocker, but
: the new boat would be marginally longer, beamier and have more
: volume, depending on the thickness of strip used.

: Moral implications aside, any pros/cons?

: Cheers, Craig

I know too many designers (who aren't making a ton of money at it) to advise you any further. I also work for lawyers, judges, law enforcement officials, and the like. This forum is sponsored by a designer, check with him. It has been discussed in the past, and there have been some VERY strong opinions on it.
