One of those flatty guys can answer this better than me.  Randall, Tim, or Jim jump in here.  Runner bottom is not a true flat, there is a small amount of V to the hull.  I do not know the degree

the 5/8 means that's the depth or recess of the tunnel that the bottom is designed with.  that's all i know

In a pinch you could put back the old fills until you come up with something better.
