The Parker, to my eye, is a slightly better looking boat.
While form is junior to function, the cabin top on the Zimmerman is too
long and flat. It's hard to tell from the stern quarter view, but if
there's much vertical curve at all in that sheer line the boat boat
will appear to have been designed by a group of separate committees.
The Parker superstructre is slightly chunky forward, but not
objectionably so. The stubby house and foredeck permit a far more
fishable cockpit in this vessel with a modest LOA.
How wonderful to see you post a boating topic, rather than a personal
attack on another NG poster. I hereby withdraw one of the negative
thoughts I may have had about you.
