After I looked at both the Parker and Defiance, I couldn't decide which to
buy, so I bought them both. I was also looking at the 260 compared to the 360, each had their own benefits and I really couldn't decide, so I bought them both. I got a good deal though, the single sales rep who called me at home every day until I made my decision, well he gave me $100.00 off the manufactures suggested retail price and the offer only stood until the end of that day so I had to act fast,, I did and saved a hundred bucks. My mamma didn't raise no fool,,, Nope,,, if she could only look at me now,, from her chair over there on the east/west coast of Florida,, ya, she be a big woman,, "Harry Krause" wrote in message ...

That one's on my wish list. I bought a 25' center console with forward cuddy. I like it because helm the helm is further aft than in the walkarounds, and I can fish a lot of people over the sides without a windshield in the way. However, it's not as versatile as the Fisharound. Thanks - I like it a lot. It's a compromise - my wife wanted something like a Grand Banks or Silverton. EEWWWWWW!!!! The cabin area is very nice too - surprising how much room it has. I always thought the forward cuddy was a great idea. Mako built one for a few years as did Boston Whaler, but Contender was about the only one who actually kept one in the line. Pursuit had one too. Yellowfin has a 34' and Marlago has a 35'. I think Scarab has one also. Just to get back to the topic in the header, I took a look at the 260 Defiance, and find it nothing like our Parker. The Defiance has a euro transom, is narrower, is ugly (Parkers are homely, not ugly), and resembles a camper inside. But it is an okay boat. |
