2026 Parker 247 Explorer

The 2026 Parker 247 Explorer is a 24-foot fiberglass sportfish built for year-round offshore fishing and extended cruising. Twin Yamaha F150XSA2 outboards deliver reliable power and redundancy, supported by a dual control station with a second helm bulkhead mount for precise docking and cockpit maneuvering. The boat's classic white hull with navy blue bootstripe complements its protected pilothouse and expansive cockpit layout.

Navigation and communication are handled by a Garmin GPS MAP 8612 xsv with GT12M-TH transducer for charting and underwater imaging, paired with a Garmin VHF 115 radio. An integrated 2-bank battery charger maintains dual-engine and house system power. Premium Seaspension pedestals with footrests at both the helm and companion seats reduce fatigue on extended runs.

The boat is equipped for serious fishing, with an upgraded anodized rocket launcher holding ten rod holders. Additional features include LED spreader lighting, a port ventilating windshield for airflow and visibility, and a folding cockpit lounge seat. Interior appointments include a white upholstery package with premium Parker stitching and Wet Sounds upgraded LED speakers.
