Glad to hear you determined that plumb bows aren’t good on 14’ power skiffs. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Also, please list your ocean racing experience since it is that obvious.

If that’s so, why do all the modern ocean racing boats have plumb bows?

Umm, don’t plumb bows have more buoyancy than long overhangs? If you take a boat with a long overhang forward, and make it a plumb bow, don’t you have more buoyancy forward?
