I used to fish miles offshore in a 12' Amesbury dory with a 7-1/2 hp
Evinrude. That boat had a 15" transom and of course, no splashwell. In
fact, it wasn't self-draining, either, unless you were on plane and
opened the drain plug from the inside.

My Dad had a 18' lobster boat with a center well that was based on the
Amesbury dory.

That was an amazingly dry boat, but when we shipped water for one
reason or another, put the boat on plane and pull the plug. :)

HAH!! The good old days.


But...weren't you worried about getting your feet wet?
