Can anyone tell me if this is an early entry hull?

Can't make the pics work. Can anyone tell me if I should stay away from an early entry bottom?

They handle chop well but if you are WOT and you catch a cross wake wrong the boat will turn and turn quick.

I'm trying to figure out what the hell an "Early Entry" is......I mean, I KNOW what it means to Omar and most of us, but on a boat..........  :screwy:

Are you referring to an overly deep "V" entry angle on one of these small boats? Like a Biesemeyer, Saguaro and certain Sleeks?

Then yes! I agree with the other statement, and will also warn of heavier "Chine Walking", at "higher than prudent but most of us try anyway", speeds. Which plays into Rogers Hopeful's original summation.   ;)

Early entry is getting in before she can say, no.

The older boats had a deep/ steeper entry at the bow
