I think ready123 has it. That must be it. Makes sense. I was wondering if the F32 had a flat bottom, but sounds like it does have a keel. It really is strange to watch. Just like someone Invisable is pushing up and down on the side of the boat! Thanks to everyone for your replies. I'll check it out further. I am also considering a Carver 3207 Aft Cabin. Love those cockpits though, so not real sure about an aft cabin boat, but it is also really nice at half the price of the F32.

+1 on the Tri cabin.... You get much more boat @ 36' than the Carver or F32.
The Carver may be less $ but it also built way less too!

talk about an AHH HAAA MOMENT. the physics of wave propagation. sea wall, i bet that's your answer. agreed on the heavy gear on the bridge too. as for the keel, i believe, i i'm not mistaken, all trojan boats, save for the internationals (i think) have some sort of keel. i know my f-32 did and so does my tri cabin.
prior to the tri cabin purchase, i was actually looking at the carver 3207. the thing that i did not like about it was the narrow side decks. the boat, over all, is a nice, compact design. but, i could not get over how narrow those decks are. the engine compartment is quite tight too, making routine maintenance a challenge. the tri cabin has nice wide decks virtually all the way around, and she is very easy to navigate bow to stern even underway. heck, if phil can do it, then any one can. also, the engine compartment is huge for a vessel of her size, and i have some pics i can send to you to show you. when i was rafted up last sunday, a good portion of the visitors mentioned that the boat 'looks' much bigger inside, more like a 40 footer. square footage wise, it's got a lot to offer.
