Additional Information / Boat Review:
Engine Manufacturer, Model, and Horsepower Rating:
Yamaha 150 HP four-stroke
What do you like and dislike about the engine(s)?
Like everything about it: quiet, good gas mileage (almost 3), starts every time on first crank.
What type trailer do you have and what do you like and dislike about it?
Performance aluminum - great trailer, no complaints
Is this boat trailerable and if so what type vehicle, at minimum, would you recommend to adequately pull this rig?
I can pull it without much strain with my Dodge V-8 4X4
How much fuel does the boat hold and what is its approximate range?
100 gallons; almost 300 miles
Describe the ride and handling in moderate chop and in rough water:
Bam-bam up front, smoother in the cockpit
If applicable, what type of fishing would you say this rig is best suited for and why?
Offshore trolling or bottom fishing for 4 people
Describe the layout of the boat including storage, live wells, lockers and so on:
Plenty of storage, built in tackle box, I just installed a 13 gallon live well.
How has the rig held up over time?
I've had it about 6 months, and have put it through some rough seas. This is one tough 21' boat
What are some things that you find exceptional about this boat?
The cabin is awesome. I don't like being wet all day. It's nice to get out of the sun once in a while also. Also, I like the solid, safe feel the boat provides. This boat seems much bigger than a 21 - plenty of room for 4 fisherman. I like the gas mileage too, 3 miles/gallon ain't bad when pushing 4000 lbs,
What are some things you do not like about this boat?
30 miles of rough seas will cause you to be 2 inches shorter than when you got on the boat
Do you know of another manufacturer that makes this same boat under a different name?
no
Would you buy this boat again or recommend it to a friend?
yes, but I think there's a Parker 2830 in my future
What would you say this boat is worth in its current condition?
$40,000
What other boat would you have bought for roughly the same money if you had it to do over again and why?
maybe an Osprey - another tough boat that's made for Pacific conditions. A few of them are starting to show up around FL.
Add any other details or comments you think people should know about this boat if they are considering buying one like it:
I can recommend Parker boats without reservation.
