That does help, thanks.
It's further confirmation that my quick 'n' dirty "eyeball" approach got way too aggressive with the side curvature.
My tail extends 31 inches past the bumper, compared to your 38 inches. Yet my transom width is just 28.75 in., compared to your 30.25 in.! If I followed your curvature, my transom would be wider than yours, of course.
The "final" side angle at the end of my tail is close to 24 degrees. I am genuinely surprised that the flow near the end isn't actually worse than the tuft testing showed.
Too bad, because I really like the looks of that curve!
