Digital Downloads for Articles and Study Plans
I have decided to sell PANTHER, and I am open to offers.
She is listed with Sunshine Cruising Yachts for $199,500.
You can see her in the Showcase Page of this website.
PANTHER may be seen in her slip at Riverside Marina, in Fort Pierce, Florida.
Please note that sending books out of the US now costs over $40USD using flat rate envelopes (cheapest way). Consequently we must raise our “overseas shipping” rate for Books, Catalogues and Plans. In many instances we can send Plans and Study Plans as PDF file attachments to emails. We can also attach Word Files for Articles, Construction Notes, and other written documents.
I am sad to announce that my best friend and boatbuilding partner of 38 years, Bill Smith, died this Spring. Bill had a brilliant mind which he could apply to anything, including building beautiful violins late in life. Together we built a dozen big cruising sailboats, and Bill built numerous boats on his own, several to my designs. He had a generous spirit, and would help anyone who asked him. Bill was also a very talented musician, and played in numerous bands. My world will never be the same without him.
PARKER MARINE ENTERPRISES sells Construction Manuals, Catalogues, Study Plans and Full Stock Plans. We do custom design work for construction in cold-molded wood, plywood, traditional wood, fiberglass, aluminum, ferrocement and steel. We do on-site or remote consultant work for new construction and major restorations.
We have added a new category to our website (CONSTRUCTION) so that you can study sequential photographs of the methods used to build our different designs, and for major restorations of classic boats.
We also resurrected the Showcase Page.
