Nov 2021 - Thought you'd be interested in this: 1996 Parker 25' Sport Cabin Inboard

1996 2520SC Parker Sport Cabin June 17th - I’ll soon be putting this on the market soon, but wanted to share it with my friends here first. I’m the second owner of this boat, and here are some details (please note: the images were taken prior to cleanup and installation of new...

Ah, thx! I will do that this morning. Yes, I have one gauge and 2 tanks. I like your recommendation of 2 gauges...

Please excuse my ignorance, but what is "6-56" ??

Thx - really appreciate the replies. Yes, I've pulled the port reed sender, and found both West Marine and Hamilton Marine (NH) have them in stock. Replacing both today, and hope that does it...

Great, thx for your rapid reply! I'll contact them in the morning. How has your tank held up? Any leaks??

Greetings All ~ Does anyone know who was manufacturing gas tanks for Parker in the mid-nineties? I need to replace fuel senders, and it would help greatly to know who built the tanks. I can't tell from the sticker, but perhaps one of you more tech-savvy owners can... THX and Happy Parkering! ~...

Greetings ~ In search of a 34'. Anyone know of one for sale? Oyster Cove Boat Works in VA had one in Jan, but the owner took it off the market. Must be too nice a boat...??? Thx ~ Buzz - [email protected]

EXCEPTIONAL writeup! Suggest you do a formal writeup, copywrite it, and send to Parker and MinnKota. Royalties in your future! Have one on order for my 2520.

Agree ~ As large as you can fit...

I'd suggest BoatUS - large assortment of fonts, styles, sizes and colors.

Excellent observations and all those corrections will be completed. Thx, and it was your recommendation for the BEP cluster. Very pleased with that!

I conjecture that the battery design placement at the transom was to minimize the cable run and thereby maximize the start voltage to outboards or an I/O. However, I rejected purchase of a 2006 2520 outboard when I discovered that the batteries were placed in the bilge against the transom. Not...

THX for this great info - I've just ordered a BEP Cluster switch for my dual battery single inboard engine setup. I wouldn't have known about this product without your writeup (Feb 3rd) ~

Great advice, thx! My original thought was to go as far fwd as possible in the bilge, but of course there is better access just aft of the engine, and well forward of the prop. That boat has a tunnel drive. Will that affect flow over the transducers?
