We had a very great experience with Parker Yacht Team. Ole is very knowledgeable and efficient. This is really not easy to find in South Florida boat industry. We had been thrown under the bus by other contractors many times before, so we really appreciate Ole and Mike helped us complete the boat engine replacement job. Not only the work was great, but also the way they manage the business is very impressive. Good to learn. During the whole process, communication with Augusta and other team members was smooth. We really appreciate all your work and help. Highly recommend the Team.

I have had an excellent experience working with Ole and Parker Yacht. One of the most interesting men you will ever meet, Ole is knowledgeable, professional, and refreshingly straightforward. He easily installed a new engine,  took the time to carefully evaluate the steering and alternator work on my Hunter Vision 36, and made practical recommendations based on the actual needs of my vessel. What impressed me most was his attention to detail and commitment to doing the work correctly rather than simply rushing through the job. Communication was clear, expectations were realistic, and I always felt that the safety and reliability of the boat were being taken seriously. Finding experienced, dependable marine professionals can be challenging, and Parker Yacht has demonstrated the kind of competence, honesty, and professionalism that inspires confidence. In the boating industry, this is a team you can count on and I would gladly recommend Ole and Parker Yacht to other boat owners looking for thoughtful, high-quality mechanical and marine systems work.
Response from the owner:Ephraim, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and detailed review. It's been a journey, as refitting any "New to you" boat shall be. I hope your new Yanmar brings you years of reliability and enjoyment. May you have fair winds and following seas. Regards, Ole Parker
