I have owned three different boats from NC Wildlife (Parker, DuraCraft and SeaArk). Like Forrest Gump said, you never know what you are going to get though most are okay. These boats are tools and like some tools, get little use and are well cared for. Others, not so much. If you buy one...

The transom is about 3" thick.

Here's how the drains looked in the back of a Wildlife Resources 1801 (2005 model). I normally kept 4 steel tanks under the leaning post plus quite a few miscellaneous other items in the rear. The deck fully drained regardless of where people stood or placed gear. The 200 EFI with a 17" four...

I had a similar product installed in the floor of my 1801. Can easily be cut to fit. The boat was used almost exclusively for diving and the mat worked great to keep the floor protected from tank boots and the other equipment. Was easily cleaned and could be removed in a few minutes for...

Rather not say exactly but will say it was less than invested. The new owner got a good deal and I got rid of a boat I didn't need. Probably could have held out for more money but, reality is that used boats are not moving like they were. I had been watching several similar boats sit for sale...

Sale pending.

Price drop $20,000 obo. Boat is located in Greenville, NC

The roller trailer. Not a fan. Had to replace the washers on all 32 rollers. "Originals" are galvanized at best and rust and swell over time. This keeps the rollers from working properly. I replaced the washers with stainless. The keel rollers from the factory are sub par. I added self...

Similar boat (below) was bought at the NC auction last week. It has a soft top and very few options. Probably worth what he's asking based on what it can do but that's up to a buyer. These are definitely not the same as the "regular" 1801's. Get in one, stand next to one, or take one to...

Price drop. $21,000 or best offer.

Yes. Tank is the original 60 gallon. No leaks. Replaced the fuel filler line last year.

2005 Parker 1801 Commercial Version with 200 EFI Mercury. Former Wildlife Resources boat. Built like a tank. Extra thick transom, extra glass in stress points. No horsepower limit. Heavy duty hardware. Hard top and DuraGrid floor covering. Simrad and Raymarine graphs, Bennet trim tabs...

I realized this weekend that my fuel fill hose is crap as well. How did you go about changing yours? Thanks for the measurement by the way. The place I checked had one piece...63" long...

Definitely. The commercial rub rail on the rest is nice as well. Guess that's for constantly bumping boats to check them.
