Oh the first part makes perfect sense, as my boat, though a foot shorter
than yours (you have a 22' boat, right?), it is about a foot deeper from
the deck to the gunnels, has the typical "Carolina flare," has 21
degrees of deadrise at the transom and probably weighs about 1000 pounds
more. Right. Makes perfect sense, even though what you are saying
violates the laws of physics. Yep, your boat is going to be drier in
heavy seas. Sure it is.

20' and I can see you are already backing down.

Chicken. :)

The second part would be fun if we had the same sized engines on the
transom...don't you have a 300 hp deadTec on that wet little boat? :}

I only have a 150.

200 HO.

I'll only go half throttle. :)


You have the 20' SmallBayRanger? Ranger must have dropped that model, as
the 20-footer is not rated for 200 horsepower. Unless you are exceeding
the recommended maximum.

Are the dimensions on your boat, but for length, about the same as the
22-footer? If so, you have a very wide, fairly flat-bottomed, modified
vee hull. Hard riding in the chop and wet.

I've seen Ranger bay boats out on nice days. How many Parker 2100CC's
have you seen? Probably none. There are plenty of Parker 21's out there,
but they mostly are the "SE" models. Different boat.

Sounds like a half fast compromise to me. :-)

On the other hand, experiments and demonstrations that promise to
violate the laws of physics often are interesting. Tom has proposed one.

Apples and Oranges.. Each job has it's own tool. Years ago I had a CJ7
and worked at a body shop. The frame guy had a VW (smerk) Rabbit that
was set up for, uh, speed. He used to tell me he could take me in the
quarter, I told him to hook up bumper to bumper and I would drag him
to the local scrap yard;)

Indeed, but the "riding through the slop" experiment Tom has proposed
would end up violating the laws of physics for his boat to win. It just
doesn't make any sense.

Hummmm, maybe he is yanking your chain??

And just for giggles, let's see if your 150 Yamaha can pull the stern
of my Ranger under. Then we'll see if my ETEC can pull the stern of
your Parker under.

How 'bout it? Up for it? :)

Where can we buy tickets for this event?

I'll provide video service and additional spectator seating..

Of course. Tom knows his ****. He's just trying to imitate one of the
departed, aka Skipper.

If Skipper is "departed" than it's time for lobsta bote pictures.

Departed from here, not from life. If you're on the Miles River, you're
a lot closer to the lobsta boat than you know.
