[QUOTE="juggernot, post: 410194, member: 10919"] I have a G3 1860 modified V, I think it's 5* deadrise and unless I have hundreds of lbs of weight up front it pounds violently due to the chop hitting the bottom of the boat as the curved bow section is out of the water when on plane and higher than the chop. A V bow w more deadrise would knife through the chop w much less pounding, it might bounce a bit but I'm sure it would be a much more comfortable/dry ride. My 03 SC is lighter than this 1860, gas and batteries are in the stren and even more hull is out of the water w just me aboard @ wot. You can imagine how bumpy the ride is when it's slapping the hull directly underneath yourself. https://www.g3boats.com/gator_tough_deluxe_1860_sc_cc_-_aluminum_jon_boats [/QUOTE]
