Looks good. I am curious to see how the change in the chine in the aft will/not affect the handling of the boat. It looks like you've increased the the upward curve of the chine in the aft over what Duane's original plans called for.

Below is my boat (after I chopped/replaced the deck) and you can see the chine curve is not as pronounced in the back end. (Note: I did not drop the deck height at either the stem or stern)
