There's very little flash on Parkers, but you can see where the money went
if you know where to look and what to look for. As an example, the folding
footrest on the front of my livewell is absolutely massive, so massive it
is obvious it simply will not break. The hull is three piece, not two
piece. All the hardware is oversized top of the line stainless, and on and
on and on.


I'm not saying Parkers are the best boats around, but for what they are,
they are damned hard to surpass unless you spend a hell of a lot more
money.


No argument from me .... they are well built, solid boats. They just need a
little facelift to give them a more distinguishing profile, IMO.

Maybe there is a market for retrofits
