I was wondering if a rippled design would work. I was thinking of overlapping material down the length of the boat tail. So i guess from a side view it would look like stairs?? Any thoughts?

Here is the link to the amature taft testing video...i could only get up to about 50mph the actions starts at about 40 seconds
