Being a car guy and not much of a boat guy can someone explain what deadrise is and how to measure it.
5. Is it a Deep Vee and if so how many degrees of deadrise.

So to get the answer to #5 do you measure at the back of the boat?

Thank you sir, looks like I need to dig out my drive shaft angle gauge to figure this one out.
