Thanks for the clarification. I must have been seeing an illusion of perspective based on the photograph.

The stern is approximately the same overall width as the rest of the boat. It's flared, most likely for looks. She had a nice paint scheme when she was at Beaver Island as the Emerald Isle. Heard that she is not the best ice-boat, but that's an overall hull design issue.

Why does the Diamond Jack, pictured in todays news gallery, have such a narrow stern? Is this purely for hydrodynamic efficiency, or does it have something to do with ice?
