NEWS / Parker ribs now on board Super Yachts

This year has seen Parker Ribs entering into the super yacht market supplying the first Parker ribs as tenders / workboats  / rescue boats . The very first being a Parker 680 Jet which in January of this year was shipped out to Brisbane to marry up with the super yacht known as “Golden Shadow”.

 A few months later we were contacted by the Management of a super yacht based in Qatar.  Following a number of exchanges of emails and telephone conversations a Parker 510 was ordered. The Parker 510 was to undertake the role of a workboat / rescue boat so a single man jockey console was required and a high heavy duty towing pole was installed behind the seat.  The engine is the SOLAS / MED approved Mercury 90 ELXPTO 2 stroke with the Post Immersion Start system. A second order for exactly the same Parker 510 has now been received from the same ship owner .
