    2002 2520 MVSC Refresh

    Kevin - Yep! The original Sou'wester 25's were targeted for commercial application so lower freeboard and a modified vee hull requiring less HP were what the watermen wanted. Our 2520 14 degree modified vee's are from the same original 25 Sou'wester hull molds.

    2002 2520 MVSC Refresh

    Thanks for the feedback/compliments, guys. Warthog: We fish in Delaware Bay exclusively which is releatively shallow (5-30 ft) so 300 ft of line is plenty for this application and fits in our locker with the motor mounted under deck. I went with the F850A vertical because I prefer the look of...

    2002 2520 MVSC Refresh

    New rubrail w/ stainless insert: David Young talked me into upgrading the utilitarian style stock rubrail to the new Parker lower profile version w/ stainless to modernize the look. I think it makes a huge difference:

    New Parker badging and name: I redid the vinyl name using http://doityourselflettering.com. I selected black lettering w/ gold outline to match the Parker striping. Also bought all new Parker badging and striping for the hull. I know some prefer it without but I like the look of it. (You'll...

    Skipping ahead to the "fiberglass" project. With the wiring/electronics completed (need to take pics of that work) the boat went to Young's fiberglass in Marmora, NJ. These guys are well known in the NJ/DE area for their outstanding attention to detail and reputation for quality. David Young...

    2002 2520 MVSC Refresh

    We then let her sit in the slip for two weeks to pick up a scum line which also accounted for the starboard list we are all familiar with as owners of Parkers with the pooling of water. We taped above the scum line with 1" tape and then another row of 1" to give us the new line 2" above scum...

    2002 2520 MVSC Refresh

    Bottom: My father and I had already removed the bottom paint (by scraping/sanding - never again!) and applied a barrier coat in 2004. However, the water line was initially improperly marked and I was never satisfied with the line. The boat went to Atlantic Green Pro In Mount Laurel, NJ last...

    2002 2520 MVSC Refresh

    Hi, Everyone. I'm the original owner of a 2002 2520 MVSC that has been meticulously maintained since new. After sticker shock of pricing out a new Parker a couple years ago, I decided to do a refresh to bring it up to date with new wiring, electronics, and few other things added into the mix...

    Screens for a 2004 2120PH

    I believe Parker switched the side windows from Water Bonnet (front were Wynn) to Diamond Sea Glaze by 2004. You may want to contact them: www.diamondseaglaze.com to see if screens can be purchased for your style window.
