biggest selling Parkers hereabouts are the 16-degree deadrise 21 and 23
footers.


Flat water boats.

If 16 degrees is so great, why does anyone build 23s?

Since I've had both I can tell you the answer: Low dead rise boats
will knock your fillings out in any kind of chop more than 1 foot or
so unless they are long and heavy.

I've owned a lot more small boats than large, and I've run them on
bigger water than the Patuxent River. You on the other hand, probably
do know dick, and quite possibly jack sh*t.



Are you still maintaining that no companies could build and sell small
wood dinghies, skiffs, and dories for $200 in the mid 1950s, Whine?

That has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with his statement. Pretty ****-poor
debating skills.
