I posted how transom height on bracketless outboard boats is measured.
I understand. My question was what is the distance between the top of the

Dunno...never measured that. More than the distance between the notch on
Tom's boat and the waterline.
More important for salt water use is the height above the waterline at
the bow and along the hullsides.
Some time ago, I mentioned that Tom's boat would fit inside mine and
disappear, except for the top of his console. Now that I know that
Ranger has a 20" transom, I am even more sure of it. Even my old SeaPros
had 25" transoms.
No wonder Tom made such an issue over a low transom. :)- Hide quoted text -

You are fudging the facts again. Toms boat has a second transom in
front of the motorwell. This avoids the "Mr. Potato Head" option of a
waterboard Pawkah settled for.. Besides, Toms boat is sold as a Bay
Boat, and is better suited for it's intended use than 'Mr. (YoHo)
Potato Head" is for open water
Idiot. How high is that second transom? High enough to stop a flood of
water coming over the stern? Nope. It's about the same height as the
actual transom.
Your boy Tom spent about a year poking fun at the transom of a boat far
more seaworthy than his.
Again, you are fudging the facts, his boat is a BayBoat... Seaworthy
enough for it's intended use. His boat is up to date, and not some 50
yo lines, with a deep vee and a huge hole in the transom to make up
for it.. Like I said, "Mr. Potato Head"...
Go play with your dinghies, idiot.

You haven't a clue in this discussion...

Learn how to paint, while you are at it. Buy a roll of masking tape.

Sure I do, and much more about dinghies too. For instance, why would I
use masking tape to seal a workskiff... It's just a tool, not an art
project...


Because, even on a workboat, a workmanlike paint job shows the painter
cared enough to do the job right. If I see sloppy paint on a boat
offered by the builder, I assume the builder was sloppy in the
construction, too, and perhaps spec'd the cheapest materials he could find.

You would assume wrong.. as usual, since you really are quite
uninformed.. I always offered my clients several options. From rough
finish bare hull, to roll and tip or even clear coat finish... Clear
coat finish calls for a lot more care in construction, using pinholes
and tape for markings, making sure any measure or mark is well hidden
during finish.. But of course, you never really built any boat, rough
or fine, so google away, and see me later...

This might help:

At rest, the round stainless drain below the scuppers on the port side is
above the waterline, and in fact, if you stretched a line across the
transom from one chine to the other, it would mark the waterline, because
the outside edge of the trim tabs are also visible.

I'm guessing what is out of the water is about half the height of the
transom, or around 12.5 inches at rest.

Just a guess.
Looking at the pic, and thinking about other similar boats, I would have
guessed the waterline at rest would be much higher, like around the vertical
centerline of the rectangular drains, plus or minus an inch.

If the chines are basically the waterline, it sits high in the water for
that type of boat.


Eisboch


Boy, you'd better not stop fast in that thing or maybe just not stop at
all.

It's sure a clean boat but reminds me of those pot-bellied, beer
guzzling, fenders-a-flyin' "boaters" who fly their pirate flag.

A bit gauche for a serious boater.

Beside that, it's clearly racist unless he also has a Cadillac with
spinner hubs, then I guess it would be okay.



Got any nice, detailed photos of your post? Post them here.

Maybe 3" with his fat ass on board.

Three inches of freeboard, with a deep notch cut to well below sea
