Speaking of flats boats, I've got a photo here of a Parker bay boat
(not a deep vee) whose owner installed an after-market bracket so he
could raise and lower the engine lower unit for shallow water fishing.
It seems to me it would have been easier to go with a jacks plate, but
this guy wanted something different:

One more thing...

Are all Parkers rub rails installed this poorly?

There's been quite a bit of aftermarket work on that boat, Dingy.

Forgot to add...the boat has a completely different transom than what
was factory installed, and while some of the aftermarket work was done
properly, the rub rail obviously was not.

What kind of boat are you driving in your bathtub these days, Dingy?

I have the same boat. You know where to look to see it, Hairy.

How's the imaginary Lobster Boat? Got some imaginary shrink wrap on it yet?

It looks brand new, SFB. Who would remove an OEM rub rail and replace it?

Nice try. No cookie.

Sorry, Dingy, but the boat in question is a Parker "SE" model. It
started life with a cut-out transom. Perhaps you should merge with
Reggie: he doesn't know anything about boats, either.
