kev .... that is awesome ....thank you .... does the swoop turn up ? meaning the point of it gets closer to the top stripe or is it a consistent 12" of the chine? im making progress again .... finally have a decent motor thanks to timfives and ive been text with ez for a lil bit again..... fingers are crossed for a fall - late fall splash even though we may be sitting on 5 gallon buckets LOL thanks bud

No worries CBG!
I'll be back in a bit with the pic.
I'll am almost positive the swoop doesn't turn up but I'll measure the end point to chine when I get home.
Glad to see ya back, I've been on hiatus on the boat myself.
Moving into a house with a dock on the water is a great motivator!

Well you're right
The point of the swoop does arc up as the tip towards the bow is 17 inches to center chine
