The Parker 34 is targeted for the 2008 Model year. The plug for the hull
is almost complete.

Parker is anticipating a large galley and table up in the pilot house.

In addition to the vee-berth in the bow, there will be a berth in the
“aft cabin area”, which means the sole of the pilothouse is elevated
enough to allow a aft-facing berth tucked in under.

The plan is for a separate enclosed head, with hot and cold pressurized
water for a shower. A compartment will be available aft for a generator,
if so optioned.

The Parker 34 will have a 12 foot beam. Power comes from twin Yamaha
350s. When asked how they will be attached, transom or bracket, the
response was "an integrated bracket," but not a euro-transom. Thank
goodness for that.

Hang on, Tom...your boat is coming.

A bracket is a bracket is a bracket - integrated or not.

And, for the record, I wouldn't buy a pilot house boat if it was your
money I was using.

In particular a Parker.

With Yamahas...
