So sad to see a founding member pass. John was always supportive of all the members here and will be sorely missed. Until we meet again.

Makes you wonder what the company did with the 21 and 23 molds. Will they keep them, or sell them to another builder?

Going to enjoy watching this project.

Sweet. I look forward to seeing your project posts.

That is indeed a Classic Parker. So, it was a factory built 25CC inboard? What year? I only ever saw one other factory-built straight inboard Parker. That one was a mid 90's 2520 MVSC inboard that had a gas big block motor and I believe a Velvet Drive transmission. Name of the boat was "Knot...

Trim tabs would definitely help. No doubt about it.

Very clean install. What size Plano boxes are those?

Nice work. I like your detail.

Just saw it. Very sad, but I wish the Parker family all the best.

Well detailed write-up, and good accompanying photos. I've been watching this build with great interest. Congratulations on your 1000th post!

Great detail. I will be following.

Yes. Got a spare set of hatch covers and mounted the solar vents in them. When the boat is at the dock, the vents were in and set to exhaust. I also left the hatch in the cabin open which allowed fresh air to flow front to rear, under the deck. When preparing to get underway, I'd remove the...

On the backside of the plate is the manufacturer, a part number, (and on mine), the date of manufacture. I simply went online and ordered them direct.

Not uncommon if the hatches are not maintained properly. The o-rings are cheap and should be replaced annually. Also, the o-rings should be lubricated with something like snap and zipper lube to keep them pliable and help in sealing out water. It is a maintenance item that is easily missed.

Missed one photo.

Final three. 3 fuel tanks, 6 deck hatches. Hope this helps.

Next three photos.

I will break these photos into 3 posts. The deck was too big to get all of the hatches in one photo, so I'm giving you multiple angles. One photo shows my MVSC (14 degree dead rise) sitting next to a 2520XL (16 degree dead rise). At one time, Parker built the 2520 in 3 flavors. MVSC, XL, and DV.

Sounds like you might have just stumbled on a deal!
