How's that 20" transom on your Ranger in a following sea...I'll bet it is a real shorts stainer, eh? Does SWS have a big hole in his transom? *If so he really should keep that boat in lakes and only use it on calm days, the same as you do. Now if he has a boat with a "real" 20" transom it will keep out waves, wakes and a following sea, substantially better than your Baby Parker. I really have enjoyed all of your photos of your Baby Parker parked on it's trailer, but the only time you posted a photo of it actually in the water was last year, when you took a photo of it's hour meter. Isn't it time to post an update of your hour meter? Shortpants Ranger is a nice smooth "Bay Boat", that will handle almost anything you throw at it. I have been on the thing skimming over the waves, airborne, it flies nice. The problem with the parker is, it has not kept up with the times. It's plain Jane, and has all of the appeal of a Payson Brick..Those geezers there don't understand that with new technology, a boat can be functional AND look like the lines were drawn this century by someone with other than a t-square.. Not to mention, that huge hole in the ass end.. Guess they couldn't take the time to put the hull on a board and incorporate a body style that suits it's 20 inch transom.. Instead they put high sides around the 20" transom, square and ugly of course, to meet the sides.. Like sticking two different boats together with kindergarten paste... It's a 25" transom at the notch, **** for brains.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - To the bottom of the Vee.. but you can spin it any way you wish.. It's like a Mr. Potato head boat. They took an old worn out design, and added a vee and a big notch to accomodate updated power.. None of the parts fit, like some kid put it together.... |
