Just some quick feed back on the lesburn design...
"Teardropping" the sections like pilgrim said would be good as it would improve the water line and decrease fore deck area.
Push the buoyancy forward. This design has no where near enough volume up front. This doesn't hurt the hydrodynamics of the boat and will give you more downwind stability. Just have a look at wing sections and how "full forward" they are.
The other recomendations if you are going to build an F16... keep the platform as stiff as you can, solid beams and stiff hulls.
Also, don't forget 80% of a boats performance comes from the rig... so give some thought to who will do this and how it will integrate with the platform design.
Besides that, I guess if you want to see how we think an F16 should be done, have a look at the VIPER.
