What I've never understood about cape horns is how the bow kind of tapers down at the front. Makes no sense how that would perform well to me, anyone that can enlighten me?

Performs great they are sought after up in the panhandle for guide boats cause of dry ride and wide beam tough solid boats.

I see what you mean @citadelmarineservices the bow line dives down. Just like a ski or wakeboard boat. Stern heavy boats with a raked bow where the length of the cap is longer than the water line length do this. It causes the bow of the boat to 'appear' to sit level in the water. Not sure why this design characteristic was transferred over to a bayboat other then to knock down spray. Maybe it serves another purpose, not sure? @Chris Morejohn any insight of this design feature?

I don't know works good. yellowfin boats have same thing.

Cape horn boats are rooted in off shore use I think they combined it and use in there bay boats.
