How the hell do you think transom height is measured? What's the distance between the top of the transom notch and the waterline? Eisboch 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 notch and the waterline? Eisboch This might help: http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...s/propwrap.jpg 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 I posted another photo from the Parker site that shows the chines are the waterline at the stern. As I have stated here many times, it is the largest 21-footer I have ever seen, not in length, but in depth and height. http://www.parkerboats.net/pages/boa...l.jsp?boatid=7 |
