Parker is Randy's son...and has a treasure trove of photos. He's also a great guy and a tribute to his dad's legacy.

CHECKMATE PULSARE 2100
I visited the Rabco factory on the west coast of FL back in 1975. I was only 15 years old and my neighbor was having a 28?? layed up as a center console. He was an airline pilot who was big on fishing. He brought the hull back to Coral Gables and rigged the boat himself.

If anyone is interested, my neighbor has a Rabco 35 hull for sale. No engines/drives or trailer. Big project.

My cousin had a 35' Rabco back in either 86 or 87. It was called Starchaser. It hit a concrete pier one night and sank. It was replaced with a 41' Apache with the same name. The Rabco was only around for about 2 months before it was wrecked. Not sure where it ended up.

35 was a cig splash. The most famous 35 was a boat called 4 runner w/ 4 2.4's. Randy also spashed a boat from a 23 Sanger.... the same exact boat I had spashed for the Ricaro 25. When randy did his, it still had our duratec and PVA on it. I had a chance to ride w/ Randy on his first boat out of that mold... very nice ride.

I have owned 3 28's... great boat.
