A hard chine is one where the side and bottom of a boats' hull meet at an angle (corner) rather than being rounded (round bilge).

We're going through some uncertainties in the UK at present, what with economic problems looming, our personal data being lost on a daily basis, none of the home countries qualifying for next years European Championships, etc.

Still, it is Christmas, so ..... chin(e) up!
