The Admiral and I just spent the past week in NOLA, MS, AL, and a tiny piece of FL during Mardi Gras week.
During my tours of the marinas, boatyards, and docks, I kept my eyes open for Gulf Coast Parkers, and finally found one in Dauphin Island Alabama.
We had taken the ferry to Dauphin Island as walk-ons, and just happened to see this older Parker 2520 (a Parker Sou`wester model) right next to the ferry landing on Dauphin.
The logo she was wearing was just like the one below, so I'm guessing she was a late 80's boat.
This boat appears to be a research vessel for the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM), and for her age, she seemed to be in pretty good shape.
Good to know that the Gulf Coast is represented!
