Offshore boats. Not only no transom, but no hullsides near the transom.

"Mommy...I'm sooooo scared...it's not your normal Lake Lanier..."

Nice try, but-

These boats have a fold-up transom that blocks off that whole open area
when
needed.
When in the up position the transom is as high as the sides.

The open area is meant to make it easier to land large fish into the boat
with minimal effort.

I hope your not trying to compare this boats design to your Parker.

I think he is trying to get a rise from the "low transom"
detractors....


The Calcutta is not a low transom boat.
