    A chine walk is better than a chine run.
    :supp:
    Actually, I believe a "chine walk" is when the stern starts rocking back and forth (from chine to chine) at higher speeds. It's usually caused by too much stern-lift.
    Remember the "speed wobbles" on your skateboard when you were a kid? Remember how scary it was?

    Chine walk is when your boat tider toders side to side and basically bounces off its chines at speed. Its pretty scarry sometimes but can be corrected with trim or adding throttle. <-- Laymans terms

    It's all in a day's work when you run a 16' V hull up in the 80s and 90s.

    The scary thing is how some V's are more prone to it than others. I once had a boat the would get real exciting at only about 55mph :2purples:
