Remember Governor Macaca?

Yeah, I can see the advantages because the 25 wasn't a mere 4 ft.
longer. It was dimensionally a lot bigger boat all around. Now that
you explained it, I can understand why.
23 is as big as I'll go on a V-bottom for that reason. I did have a 27
and for one to launch it wasn't easy . not easy at all.
If you added in the swim platform and pulpit, the 25' Parker was about
32' long overall, and 9'6" wide, amidships, and fully found, weighed
over 7000 pounds. Also, the 21-footer is a deep vee; the 25 was a mod vee.
How long is your lobster boat, overall?
He doesn't give out that information to anyone. But I suspect it is in
the range of 36" to 40" LOA.
