I like these boats but with this model you can't keep your feet dry.
Waves are always coming over the transom.


Interesting. I've owned three recent vintage outboard boats, all smaller
than the Parker, and with 20" instead of 25" transoms. I used them mostly
in the Atlantic Ocean off the Florida coast and I recall one time when I
got a little wave action in over the transom. Of course, I always made an
effort to keep waves from breaking against the stern.

I doubt it will be an issue on the new ride.


Maybe you haven't seen your new boat in the water-

Doesn't take more than a 10" wave from behind to come over the transom



Damn, from that photo it does look like it is completely open around the
engine mount. I have always seen the engine cut out enclosed so it is
not open to the cabin. Hopefully that photo is not representative of
the way it really is, because if this is the way it really is, one could
expect to have wet feet from any kind of following sea.
