Aaron,
Thanks for your explanation. I understand the basic concept of a more rounded hull shape contributing to hull speed. This is good to think about.

Do you have any personal experience or thoughts on the turning ability of baidarka designs? It is interesting to see on-water photos of the North Star, for instance, with its apparent rocker at the bow.
