Can I stay?
Now that the big Parker is happily enjoying the blue (and warm) waters of the Caribbean, I am missing the being at sea.
Pleased to say that I have purchased a new Parker, but ...... without tubes!!!!
It has the same underwater profile and I promise to still hoot around at WOT.
Regards
Steve

you mean you bought a rib and saved some money by getting it without the tubes? No wonder you have to go around at WOT to avoid sinking

I'll still have a SIB to get ashore and mess around in.
No pictures yet, she is still being prepared.
750CC with 250 Verado - should be good for 45kts+ if i don't mind breaking some plates!
This will be an all year round boat, heating being fitted. Looking forward to taking Andre on the Nacho run in the New Year.

Hi John, working on it but hopefully one like this a Parker Baltic Cruiser . The best seller this year and all signs show that 2016 will be even better

Andre you know one of those would be ideal for cruising scottish waters  - if you want to keep one up here and need someone to take people out on it for demo's I'm sure we could reach an arrangement  !

I am sure we could  but sorry the Solent is just a good place as well with the French coast and Channel Islands within reach. Anyway nothing certain as yet.

You need rain to show the true benefits of that cabin though! We are much better at providing rain!
