Steve- thank you very much for the sketch you sent. My final design may look very similar.

Carl- thank you for your insight. Is your 14 rigged with a spinnaker, reacher, or something similar? Where is your mast now, and how tall are your hulls?

Quiet1- those A-cat profiles are excellent! A very useful resource to everyone planning to design their own boat that won't deviate too much from the "norm".

The Freestyle 14 hulls will be a bit larger (taller) than is really needed, as I want the boat to be able to handle larger sailors and rough conditions.
