I have owned my first Parker, a 2004 model 2520, for about 2 years now. I must say there are somethings design wise that makes me scratch my head and the anchor locker is one of those things. Another thing is it appears they used SS bolts throughout the boat but must have use carbon steel nuts on the back side. Every nut in my PH and cabin is rusted to the point with over half I can't get the correct size wrench or socket on them.
