transition, or dip, in the gunnels as they move towards the aft end of
the boat, and therefore a more interesting shearline. I believe it is
called a Palm Beach shearline, or something similar.

Up forward, I have more freeboard, and in the stern I also have more
freeboard. I'll have to measure it with a tape, but my Parker dealer
also sells Gradys, and I looked at a couple of them before making my
choice.

Harry Krause,
I meant to ask you, if the Parker is as close to perfect as a boat can
be, why would anyone want to bring along aluminum folding chairs?

The aluminum chairs work together with the aluminum hats to keep the
governments GPS signals from take control of you. Everybody knows that
GPS satellites have dual purposes.

You know, I've often wondered about those "noises" I hear every once
in a while - you know - high speed data streams?

Do you really think the aluminum hat would help? How about I if I
used a stainless steel mixing bowl?

At some point you have to ask yourself, Tom, why you are cavorting with
two of the reigning assholes of rec.boats, Reggie Retardo and BARred
from Dating Women.

First of all, I like them - they are interesting. Secondly, BAR is a
former Marine and as such, a brother-in-arms. Third, and probably
something you wouldn't understand, I generally enjoy conversing with
everybody here.

I honestly don't care how they get along with anybody else. I like to
think of myself as the universal conversationalist. :)

Now wait just a minute here, we already have a universal
confrontationalist.

Did you mean contortionist?

I think that means he can do it with either hand.

That is your problem, the stainless steel mixing bowl, you need to be
using an aluminum colander with the curved feet on the bottom.

You both are idiots, they colander holes will allow the data to enter
and leave easily.
