Is it normal to feel the top of the tunnels flexing in the baker mod vp boats? Do I have an issue or is it because the stringers are run along the sides of the tunnels instead of the top? Anyone with baker experience your input would be appreciated.

Most smaller tunnel boats dont have stringers on top. No need. My buddy's baker is as solid as a rock with zero flex. Maybe yours is a lighter layup than most?

Maybe. It's just weird to feel the water slapping the boat under your feet.

I would be able to chime in but I have not gotten mine to run since the day I bought it last year. Maybe this summer I can get the POS Johnson on the back to do something other than choke and die.
