[QUOTE="Stumpalump, post: 434961, member: 13140"] Some west boats do have a flat rear stern like the one I just sold. https://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/boa/6108880840.html It was designed and marketed to SoCal guys that wanted to fish in Baja Mexico. The flat stern allows it to be able to be launched from the beach. The high "Dory hull" sides and tall deep-V bow allow it to break the surf and handle ocean waves. Today, because nobody goes to Baja anymore they make great salt water boats or crowded lake boats. Our lakes are big and open. They are full of 23' wake boats with wake enhancing devises that drive in circles all day. The other problem we have is breeze. 10-13 mph is common. That's over a foot of chop. The breeze never ends out west. People think it's hot in AZ. When it's a bone dry 105 with 13 mph breeze it's not at all. I'm going to lake Rosevelt on Friday only because the weather predicts wind under 9 mph most of the day. Here is the stern of the 16' [img]https://i64.tinypic.com/2jfjg49.jpg[/img]i [/QUOTE]
