I’ve owed a boat on Winnipesaukee for 40 yrs and have been on Rattlsnake for 30. I know a little bit about boats and am absolutely ashamed of myself for not noticing this MAJOR design flaw before purchasing the boat. It only sticks out about an inch but is an inch to much. NOTHING should stick out beyond the rub rail except a windlass or swim platform. Anyone who doesn’t Agee’s knows nothing about boats. As for photos I don’t know how to add a photo to this post, but believe me, I’d love too.
18" left for room is more than every dock at my association and almost every time I've tried to dock at Wolfeboro!
