February had a couple of big events, or should I say several events all in one week. We had the Super Bowl/Chili Cook-off, three high school rentals and the Crab Feed. We somehow managed to pull them off without a hitch. Thank you to everyone who helped in coordinating and/or participated in these fantastic parties and rentals. Needless to say, we were all well fed last month.

Again, the Board did not have time to reassign the 2024 Watch Teams. If no one objects to their current assignment, we will just leave them as is. Those who would like to be on another team, email infosryc@gmail.com before our next board meeting.

Reach out to me if you want to help with planning. We can always use more ideas, and definitely more help. This is a volunteer club and we all need to be involved in one way or another.

Prior to Tim going into the diving business, he was a California State Park Ranger working first at Bodega Bay, then moving onto Angel Island and lastly Mt. Tam State Park. During his ranger days he also was involved in being an abalone diver. After working and enjoying the ranger life he made the decision to become a professional diver. As most people that are starting out in the diving business they begin with cleaning of boat bottoms, changing zincs, changing props, etc. He progressed into the salvage business which is now called Parker Diving.
|
I went into the Marine Engineering business in 1962 and by 1966 our shop was established behind the Montecito Shopping Center. We had built a 28’ work boat named the Alert with a powerful engine and salvage and fire pumps. As I became acquainted with Tim, we found our 2 businesses complimented one another. We became good friends and began to work together often.
|
As time went by Parker evolved in salvage technology and gained experience in his salvage technique. Through all of this development he gained many valuable contacts with Marine surveyors, Marine Insurance contacts and Coast Guard contacts. Needless to say, Tim Parker had become a well-known figurehead in all Northern California.
|
Tim's Christmas parties for his contingents were legendary. The earlier in-the-day parties were known for serving abalone. Later on, they were a Seafood fest of crab meat, prawns, sea food salads, clam chowder and unlimited refreshment. Tim enjoyed being a generous host for all of his many, many friends.
|
In the late 70’s we together purchased a 56’ landing craft later known as the Allied Mariner. It was rebuilt and adapted for Towing, Salvage and contractor support. I later purchased Tim's share of Allied Mariner and completed the Coast Guard certification process after which Parker Diving and Allied Marine shared much business together. Around the year 2000, Tim repurchased the Allied Mariner for Parker Diving, where I continued to be his operator and shared many adventures. We spent together many long hours of hard work, camaraderie and good friendship.
|
Tim was the hardest working and most generous person that I have ever known. He is missed by many!!!
