My current thought is to just leave the frond door open when feasible.
But now, with my newfound knowledge from you guys of how inefficient boats are at getting around, I'm wanting to learn more about hydrodynamics and how I might be able to make it more efficiently move through the water.
Considering how much more dense water is, then any small improvements would be amplified/magnified. I should probably pick up a Basics of Hydrodynamics book.
On plane, widening the lifting strakes at the back of the pontoons would probably help. For slow speed running, having the pontoons end in a boattail is probably better than the way they abruptly end now. I have some research to do!
