    Boat Wanted 1801 Wanted

    Don't know what they do with Parkers, but I've known Gib Chapman at Nansemond Marine for decades. He is a first rate guy. Good luck with your search. You will love this little boat. Mine is exactly what you are looking for, but it's not for sale! :>)

    Can’t fill boat with fuel

    Vent may be partially clogged. If your boat has a carbon canister in the vent line it may be clogged. The fill line may be kinked or blocked. Dirt dauber nests are a common blockage. Is the boat approximately level when you are fueling?

    Can’t fill boat with fuel

    It won't take any or it just flows very slowly?

    And here are some photos. As you can see the anchor locker is still useable but the TM hangs over the bow.

    The Parker Lineup is Now Dead

    I am a big fan of Parker and hate to see them leave their roots. But their "true clientele" are the people who are willing to buy the boats. If they can change the design and sell more boats then it is a good move for THEM. Maybe not for you and me, but for the company. They are in business to...

    MinnKota Ulterra 80# 60’ 24 V I can't find any photos. I'll try to remember to take some next time I go to the boat. Mine is mounted on the port side, to the left of the anchor locker lid. It works but is not ideal.

    I've added a trolling motor to my 2015 1801. For my fishing it has been a great addition. NO t-top, but most of my fishing from the boat is in the winter. In the summer I fish from my kayaks and the Parker becomes a tubing boat.

    Bondo used in original construction?

    In 1996? Who knows? Might be some sort of adhesive.

    Battery Issues and Wire Size on 1998 21se

    First test the battery as described elsewhere. Charge the battery and clean all the connections. The battery should measure 12.5-12.7 volts when fully c charged. This might take two people. Put the positive probe on the positive cable going into the starter. Put the negative probe on a known...

    Battery Issues and Wire Size on 1998 21se

    Wire size depends on how much current the starter takes and how long the wire run is. There are lots of wire size calculators on line. If in doubt go bigger. You shouldn't have any significant corrosion inside the insultation unless the boat has been submerged. Measure the voltage at the...

    2021 1801 build quality and accessories quality.

    You should definitely give Parker a chance to make it right. Let us know what they say. My 2015 1801 is a hoss... no rust, but then I'm in fresh water.

    I will plan to come (by car). A lunch or dinner would be great. Either one ok with me. My wife will come with me. Could fish or not. Maybe cruise, maybe not. since I won't have my boat i would be dependent on an invitation to fish or cruise.
