Re: Angle on the side Most likely it's a crimp for strength. I have however seen angle used instead of a crimp. So to answer your question it's for strength.

Re: Angle on the side You might be talking about a spray rail? Something like this?

Re: Angle on the side Nice shotgun rider,I don't think its for strength cause the way it's welded on I guess it's for spray cause it looks like the last pic

Re: Angle on the side Most put it as a spray rail if you do not have a crimp to make the water spray off the hull. It does provide a little lift.
