Well, 1st testdrive behind. That bend trailingedge is too much so i grinded it off. Right side is now straight but still that wing profile is left.
It was so much that had to turn steeringwheel 20minutes to the left , so that boat went straight!😁. To be continued!

Jep, back in business! Skeg is now grinded allmost symmetrical for both sides. Seems that i dont need that wing effect at all!! New little larger but symmetric is on the way from welder, will get back with photos.

At least you tried something new, so you and others know it wouldn't work.

Kudoos for doing that, and nice welding work by the way.

Thanks for saying that!
I have another under construction, straight but widened on every direction. Have to make sure it stays in line on rough conditions! Pics are on the way��.
