A staple of the West Coast fishing community, Parker boats have gained a reputation for being, “overbuilt and under-priced”. With bulletproof quality of construction and dependability, the Parkers exhibit attractive wide-flared bows, carrying classic lines throughout their design.

Having been a major builder of quality boats since the late 60’s, Parker never intended to become a giant in the industry. Rather, they simply sought to build boats for the people who would appreciate the time-tested design features. Parker’s line-wide reputation for strength, simplicity, and seaworthiness is a result of their straightforward approach and infallible dedication to the highest quality construction practices. The result–the absolute best utilitarian fishing boats, ideal for the Pacific, as evident in Parker’s overwhelming popularity.

Marty Morris Joins CNY Fishing Team with Parker 2520 Sport Cabin–West Coast Style! a 25’ Parker with twin 150 H.P Yamaha outboards has joined the family photo album.
