See, that's a nice shot. I never suggested changing any part of the
wet side of the hull, just a little curve to the shear, and tail,
that's all..Wouldn't take much, certainly could be done without
changing the fit and function at all. Anyway, don't get me wrong, one
of the things I noticed about those Parkers was how nice they seemed
to be moving in the water and how perfect of a single handed, or two
handed fishing boat it is. The four was real quiet too. They came in
not 100 yards from each other and headed for the same marina, do not
know if they were fishing together or not.
The boat is big enough in the front. If you drop the shearline, you
decrease the height of the gunnels off the deck. When you do that, you
make it more possible for ugly things to happen in terms of water coming
aboard or people falling off. This is much less of a problem, of course,
on larger boats.
