I know dial up suck but once you flip the boat, you might take a couple of photos and then resize them down so we can see what you are talking about. I have read that a very slick/smooth bottom grabs and holds water so you can make it slick but then back on the surface that ride the plane, you need something like http://shopping.rexmar.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=lubrabonda . You need to break the friction on the bottom of your boat just as golf balls have dimples.
