It still would be interesting to sea trial the two similar boats that

I think we know how that would turn out. Bring on another case of
shock absorbers.


The 16-degree Parkers do very well in the chop. Very sharp bow entry,
tabs, and you move right along at a decent clip.

It's too bad you don't know dick about small boat boating on places
where the 16-degree deadrise hulls are popular. Very, very popular. The
biggest selling Parkers hereabouts are the 16-degree deadrise 21 and 23
footers.


With low transoms, too!
