Parker Boats is a manufacturer of premium inshore and offshore fishing boats and is responsible for creating the 2024 Parker Offshore 2900 CC.
Traditions is the main word used by Parker Boats to describe their vision. They state that each one of their boats is quality made and overbuilt to ensure that you, as the fisherman, are more than happy with your vessel.
Three words that they use to describe their boats is seaworthiness, quality, and strength. We would have to agree that this rings true, especially when looking at the 2024 Parker Offshore 2900 CC.
Whether you are a lone fisherman, family adventurer, or you want to go out with the crew and catch some bass, you can do it in the 2900 CC. With the new lineup of Parker Offshores, you can expect these models to offer more family features than previous models while continuing to maintain the true DNA of what Parker Boats are about.
In this review, we will discuss what the flagship 2900 CC has to offer including what to expect from its interior, accessories, price, and more.
Interior and Accessories
The base version of the 2024 Parker Offshore 2900 CC, which is the version that comes with all standard options and no upgrades, boasts U-shaped bow seating which is plentiful and comfortable. Additionally, there is a double-wide lounge that has adjustable armrests. All of the upholstery on the boat is diamond stitched to give it that elevated look. The upholstery is also marine-grade and easy to clean making it a breeze to wipe up any spills or water.
If you are looking for additional space, you can add an additional sun pad with cushions along with other additional seating options.
Moving over to where the captain has his or her throne, you will find that the helm seat offers you folding bolsters. Aft seating made from mezzanine includes three tackle drawers which are perfect for all of your storage needs. One of the tackle drawers converts into a trash can for your convenience. You will also find a seatback that folds down to create a nice tackle center and rigging table. Under these three seats is an insulated cooler for all your food and drinks. If you do not want to use this cooler as a cooler, it can be used as a backup livewell.
For easy on and off access, you will find a dive door and a telescoping ladder to assist in easy on and off into the water and when docked.
The console area features an accessory panel with backlit buttons along with a wet sounds stereo and six speakers. If you are looking to entertain on your boat, you can upgrade these options to include a T-top with a complete sound system.
Throughout the 2900 CC you will find a variety of amenities that allow you to fully use this boat for fishing including rod holders, a 270-quart fish box, a 40-gallon livewell, 200-quart aft fish boxes, and a 150-quart forward fish box.

If you are looking for a bit more of a punch in performance, you can opt for the F300s which are excellent with fuel efficiency and can reach top speeds of around 55 miles per hour or so. The efficiency speed of the 2900 CC with twin F300s is around 25 to 27 miles per hour.
