Miss Amy- I too am not too up on some of the mechanics, but I did find a book that explained planing and non planing hulls, and all kinds of stuff, dont remember the author, I'll have to check, but the book is called Starting Powerboating or Begining in Powerboating or something...Decent book...Eric it might help with your questions as well, cause they go into hull design, and catamaran and v bottom...and stuff

Thanks boatgirl...however I don't want to learn TOOOOOO much, then my husband will expect me to be out there turning the wrenches! 
A book like you mentioned though would probably be a good idea for someone like me to check into.

Great........ now I have women giving me boating advise!!! I don't think I can sink any lower!!! Just kidding.
I really love talking boats and I try to learn as much as possible. When I upgrade to a different boat, I want to be able to make an educated and effective decision.

Hey Boatgirl,
When are we ever gonna get a chance to meet? You should think about coming down to LOTO this summer. As you know, Memorial Day is the BIIIIG weekend for OSO, but ANY time you want to make the trip, just let us know!

OMG Packin..I'm Laughing!!!
We'll have your spot reserved right inbetween Boatgirl and I!
Of course, you'll have to share that spot with LutzParty too.
And promise you won't try to do any cooking, okay?

I was thinking more along the lines of you being are cabana boy! I'm sure you'd look cute serving us those little umbrella drinks.
I think LutzParty gets the job of rubbing on the suntan lotion.LOL!!!!!!!!
Seriously though, I do hope you plan on making the trip. And we still need to convince boat girl to come too.

Eryn, check your plans for Memorial Day. You've GOTTA make it down. There will be a ton of OSOer's there. Let me know if you need help with accomodations.
And as far as surprising him with my new found knowledge, I think I've already done that by reading stuff on here. I will say something and he's like...."how did you know that?" or "well, I'm impressed you know that." kinda cool!
