 V Crimp or Performance Crimp
Does anyone have pictures of the difference between these two crimps? Gonna get me one of those there mud hulls built here shortly and not sure the difference? Boat will be a 1750 with a beam between 63-65 inches and a narrow front (25"). Due to the timber. Dfou is doing the work for me just wondering the difference, and he recommends the V with a double taper and it should turn well and handle well.

 Re: V Crimp or Performance Crimp
I think the faded v looks best. I've had v and performance. I can't tell much difference but I think one time brother Breaux told me he thought the v was stronger.

 Re: V Crimp or Performance Crimp
I agree with the fade/performance crimp, but dfou said that the narrow beam that I want would be easier with the v crimp.

 Re: V Crimp or Performance Crimp
IDK, you can look at mine though when you pick up the motor. Its a V crimp with a 68" beam on a 48" bottom. My boat with the performance crimp had a 70" beam on a 48" bottom.

 Re: V Crimp or Performance Crimp
The only boat I road in with the spuds through the hunt deck like that had water shooting up those holes and into the inside of the boat some. If you were sitting on the back seat, your back would get wet.
