[quote=smfinley][quote]the overhanging lip on a h18 is to cut down water[/quote] I think the overhanging lip was there for the simplification of the manufacturing process of the boats. I am no expert on how these were built in the 70's but it looks like two molds were used and then the top attached to the bottom. My guess is this was first done on the H14 and H16 for easier assembly, and then just carried over to the H18. They do help for reducing water spray, and may even help keep the bows up when they slap the water.[/quote]
