Two Parkers

I was fishing on the CT River the other night and saw two 21 footers
just like your boat Harry. One with a big 2 stroke, one a 4. Both
coming in at evening, right after another. They did seem to sit heavy
in the water, moving nicely through the light chop before sunset. They
even had low transoms! Still could give a little "life" to the lines
on the boat, someone should tell Parker that it is ok to look nice
too!  Just a couple of inches of um, pride in the bow would look
great, and that square ass, oh well, still look like a good tool for
the sound and beyond, even if it does not photograph well :O
I'm not sure what you mean by giving a "little life" to the lines. The
boats are exactly what they look like...center console fishing boats. I'll
take a couple of photos of the bow for you and maybe you can tell me what
you have in mind, okay? :}
IMO, that's the problem with some of these boats .... no distinguishing
lines. From a distance they pretty much look the same. Instead of
designing in some uniqueness, some manufacturers are content with putting
their name or logo in big letters on the side. (Parker, Robolo, etc.)

Ahh, is that it? Well, I can tell a Parker with or without its
decals...they look pretty distinguished to me. I believe the 2100CC I
have has virtually the same hull it had 15 years ago. The "insides" are
a little different. Why change what works?
