Harry, in the pictures on the Parker site,

it appears that the 21'er is the same as the 23'er without the engine
mount. Why would you get a boat that has no protection from the water
coming thru the transom? Hell, even the 18'er appears to have the engine
mounted in such a way as to keep the water out.

Come on guys - it's a nice boat.

It's not what some of us would buy for any number of reasons, but
that's Harry's choice, not ours.

Picking on that one detail seems kind of petty.

SWS,

I have to disagree with you, this thread really has been a very
productive discussion about boats. No has called Harry's boat a piece
of **** (like Harry has done many times about other people's boats), no
has called called Harry an asshole or accused Harry about lying about
his Parker. In fact, even though Harry loves to call other people
names, it looks like most people try to ignore his insults and focused
on a very legitimate boating discussion. What I saw is someone who had
ridden in the Parker making an observation about the his ride in the
Parker, and then a general discussion about an open transom very a
transom with a engine well or splash boards.
