Broker Remarks

Parker 275 for sale. The Parker 275 has superbly finished, comfortable accommodation in a roomy two cabin layout, with the accent on quality and practicality. Incredible shoal draft capabilities. Sails well in light or heavy winds, can draw as little as 15" (.44m), will dry out flat, sail longer, leave earlier and safely return later.

The Parker 275 can be sailed short handed or fully crewed. The fractional rig, combined with the long waterline, will drive the Parker 275 faster than others in its class and all the controls fed back the cockpit ensure safety when sailing alone or gently cruising with a young family.

The light, airy saloon can be made even roomier by completely removing the table which seats four in comfort. The carefully engineered chart table folds away completely, as does the navigators seat, leaving a clear area of high quality wood panelling and comfortable access to the aft berth area.

Yachting Monthly Review July 1991: ‘... the lifting keel is not a marketing afterthought; it works and what is more having been refined over many years works well.  That feature alone opens up fresh cruising possibilities and sailing areas like the Isles of Scilly or Channel Islands for example, will take on a new complexion.

Coming from a yard which also builds racing dinghies, the 275 has been conceived, built and rigged by people who understand and employ the appropriate technology throughout.  As such the weight is kept to a minimum (without compromising strength), the rig can be tweaked as much as you wish, and yet she still manages to accommodate full; cruising requirements and comforts.  For occasional racing and family cruising which need to embrace shallow waters, few boats come close to her.’
