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

Remember these?


Despite the fleeting urge, I don't feel like playing with PhotoShop this
morning.
