"All decisions are the result of binary thinking."



It's a 21' Model 211 Proline. The engine is a 5.7L Mercruiser with an Alpha 1
outdrive. Horsepower is about 210. It has a cuddy cabin, long enough for me to
lie down in, and I'm about 6'4". But, mostly the cabin is used to store fishing
equipment.

It's does well for fishing, although the inboard takes up some room. However,
the engine cover gets used as a table for cutting bait, lure tieing, etc.
Without the cover there I'd probably be using coolers or something else which
would take up room. I put a large cooler on the swim platform for carrying fish.
It gets tied on with 3/8" nylon rope.

Every year I go through the "do I need a new Parker" phase, but I end up being
pretty satisfied with what I've got.
