What is being built next to Spanky's in Parker?

[OCMerrill]

Is this a direct competitor to Spanky's?

 

[BajaT]

More of a direct competitor to Parker Yamaha I believe....

We heard more of a sales/service deal than parts.

Boat and RV Dealer.

Craig Reynolds (owner of Pirates Den/Cove) is running it. He's doing it to compliment Spanky's, not compete with them.

Thanks Alan. Happy to hear this.

Their sign tacked to the front of the building, to me, a little vague and I was concerned. Its shaping up to be a good looking building.

I don't know how long we've been fans of Spanky's. Maybe since the late 90's when they opened their 1st place. Every trip we spend time there getting stuff I could buy at home or on line however just prefer to shop and bring the money to them. Plus their dock lines (made local by a gal and her name escapes me) are awesome as is everybody there.

I was hoping it was going to be a good Mexican restaurant - It's been over 15 years, but since Tacos & Beer closed up, there aren't any good taco joints in Parker. That's what Parker needs.
Unless El Sarape has a new menu in the last 5 years, they are a still a tourist version of Mexican food.

Place is list plus 20!

But I badly need some new dock lines. Maybe I'll go take a look.

Well, that's how you support a low volume brick and motor in a desert town Joe. That way when you really need them...they are there.

I haven't see an Amazon truck on Parker Dam Road yet.

Ha!

UPS and FedEx roll into Big Bend almost daily now! Pretty sure they don't like the food here That much!

One thing about Spanky's though...

They do have some pretty cool t-shirts.

Boat battery was $50 less. Ski battery $7 less than Yamaha dealership. Like for like. Great service friendly staff.

New building is going up fast. I heard competition to spankys but apparently not.

Havasu Springs!

The price of Depends are going up. Poor Joe.

Parker Yamaha charged me $145 to dismount and re-mount two new tires on the back of my daughters Suzuki LT450. Carry in with my supplied tires. I just spread the love around the town minus Wallmart and that price was nuts.

Spankys may not be the cheapest, but it is the most convenient if your based in Parker. Only other option in most cases is to go to Havasu. Plus like was said, good people.

Its kind of odd, i never questioned the pricing there. they normally have what I need, or tell me where to go if they dont have it. they always have greeted me when i walk in and ask if need help. ive been buying from them since there first location and will continue to do so. if I lived in town it might be a different case having more time to spend on the water, but with most of my trips i have 2-3 days there at a time. ill pay more to save the time and not question paying it.

 

[Deckin Around]

Spanky’s is the best! rip Spanky the dog I remember him at their old store location.
