In 2002 I shopped long and hard to find a boat that met my fishing needs. I needed a boat that could handle the kind of snotty conditions one may experience in a large 12' deep lake, but could also fish in shallow marshes and bays. When I found the 23 SE I couldn't have been happier with my decision. The simple lay out combined with the shallow draft and big Parker bow make for the perfect compromise for my needs.
With that being said I am a little dissappointed with some transom issues that I have had and am looking for some insight. In 2005 a crack developed along the top of the engine well in the little flange that runs along the top of the transom. It ran the length of the engine well and is only about 1/2" deep.
The crack was repaired once in 2005 by a Parker dealer by simnply filling it with gel coat. Obviously the crack has re-appeared and I am looking for anyone that may have had any experience with repairing a similar problem.
Photos are attached and I appreciate any input.
