Post in thread 'replace cleat holes with pop up cleats?' replace cleat holes with pop up cleats? Greetings, The thread above may give you some insight into pop up cleats to suit your needs. Thanks!

Greetings, I am the second owner of a 2002 2510 and noticed the Tempress Slam Hatch lids were tired and dirty looking after 20 years of exposure. Maybe there is a simple cleaning and polishing to bring these back which I am not aware of. I opted for a quick refresh with spray epoxy paint. 1...

Good morning, did you sell these yet? Thanks!

I just purchased these based on your recommendation and love it on this 51 year old center console I use at work,(not a Parker). I fashioned an aluminum backing plate and through-bolted it to the console. Thanks!

Awesome catch. Best wishes for a happy season on the water!

Great to hear! I'm sure you will enjoy the boat with the quality time you spend on it. It seems replacing the 'magic' filters did the trick. Thanks!

Good point. Rod, if you have the patience you may want to check your two low pressure fuel pumps; especially since you pointed out yesterday your primer bulb was faulty. Below is a photo from the Yamaha service manual for checking these simple fuel pumps. Good luck with the mechanic if you go...

Hello, Fuel pressure spec is 39.8-51.2 psi. Here is a photo from the Yamaha service manual. Glad to see there is good HPDI fellowship here on CP. Thanks!

Good morning Rod, Thank you for your update! BTW-was the filter in the VST dirty? When I bought my used Parker 4 years ago the previous owner advised me to Always pump the primer bulb firmly before starting to avoid damaging the low pressure pumps. Your low pressure pumps may be weak; if they...

Hello Rod, I suggest you check the operation of your neutral safety switch to see if it may play a role in your limited RPM. Thanks!

Hello Rod, FYI - you likely already know this: HPDI's have a safety feature to avoid over-revving; they need to be in gear to go over 1200 rpm. When flushing my engines on the trailer I will remove the props and carefully put them in gear to rev to 2500-3000 rpm or so to help them warm up. I...

Modified Vee has one lifting strake below the waterline on each side of the bow. The Deep Vee has two lifting strakes each side. Thanks!

Looking better! I have used Thixo epoxy for filling and bonding the gelcoat stress crack areas you ground out; it is a flexible epoxy made by TotalBoat/Jamestown. Thanks!

Great choice with the West System 650 for this project and future projects. As a gentle reminder, below is a link to West System's guidance for surface preparation. Please note that cured epoxy can result in an amine blush on the epoxy surface which must be removed to permit subsequent bonding...

I just read the specs on the Bondo fiberglass resin link you included from Lowe's. It's fascinating that it says it is 100% waterproof because.... it's not. Sometimes you just gotta pick your guru and go with the advice for your project. Thanks!
