Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
boat had a 1/4" distortion about 36" in from the transom in a spot 6" long would that be a hook that you guys spoke of that could be driving my boat of to each side.
Most all boats have a hook right at the transom. A 1/4" is about as much as you'll see nowadays. That helps the boat get on plane. It should be less right at the keel and progressing as you check out toward the lifting strakes and/or chine. Other than right at the back the hull should be relatively straight at least 6 to 8 feet forward.
