Tim’s new Kiwi-built Makaira is one of the toughest - and best riding - alloy boats to ever grace The Captain. He’s skippering the new Gen3 featuring a Carolina flare. Builder Allan reckons no other boat comes close to his aluminium creation.

Nice boat. Can someone explain to me how a flare 200mm down from the gunnels or 6feet above the running water line makes any difference to ride? Plowing into a 2m wave it might help a smidge for spray, but will do nothing for ride surely .

No they cant

I agree the flare likely wouldn’t change the ride. If anything it’s the weight of all of the thicker/extra aluminum in the boat.

It creates a finer entry and softer ride. To have the same entry with flat plate would mean an extremely narrow boat that would sacrifice the foredeck size. But where they come into their element is creating lift when you are in a following sea.

@@Shaka_Brah stabicraft achieve this with pontoon design also. I appreciate the workmanship in this boat to achieve that finish in aluminium construction is impressive.

The flare allows for fine entry bow for the majority of the freeboard (good for almost everything but a following sea). Then, in a following sea (where a fine entry bow would normally want to nose dive/bury in to a trough) the flare creates reserve buoyancy higher up in the freeboard to help create the lift needed to bring the nose back up after hitting a trough

Quite similar lines to a Dickey 8m. Another NZ legend. From an Aussie living in NZ, the metal boats leave Aussie boats in their wake.
