Example: I know the Fi25 was really good. But it also was 1200# heavier than anything else, and has a deepV hull shape that lends itself to deep sinking. They even had a hydrolock issue related to this at one point. They sink like mothers!

So it stands to reason that boat will do well.

Meanwhile an equal sized boat with a much flatter hull (Makai) is running a lot less weight and is harder to sink. Thus producing a less impressive wave.
The outcomes are going to reflect this discrepancy.

Flatter hulls will need more weight at a given size than a deepV to make the same amplitude wave.

So why is not everyone deepV if its more "bang for the pound?" (sounds dirty but isn't?) Well, I suppose its because there are tradeoffs in stability, the way the interior space ends up, wakeboard performance, etc....so each manufacturer chooses the shape according to their desired outcomes.

More deep and potentially completely useless thoughts.

Now to make chicken in the InstantPot.
