Uh...there's more freeboard on my parker than on the correspondingly

transition, or dip, in the gunnels as they move towards the aft end of
the boat, and therefore a more interesting shearline. I believe it is
called a Palm Beach shearline, or something similar.

Up forward, I have more freeboard, and in the stern I also have more
freeboard. I'll have to measure it with a tape, but my Parker dealer
also sells Gradys, and I looked at a couple of them before making my
choice.

Harry Krause,
I meant to ask you, if the Parker is as close to perfect as a boat can
be, why would anyone want to bring along aluminum folding chairs?

The aluminum chairs work together with the aluminum hats to keep the
governments GPS signals from take control of you. Everybody knows that
GPS satellites have dual purposes.

You know, I've often wondered about those "noises" I hear every once
in a while - you know - high speed data streams?

Do you really think the aluminum hat would help? How about I if I
used a stainless steel mixing bowl?
