    Painting bottom when on a trailer.

    The only way to paint a bottom right is to completely remove the trailer and block it up. I do this every year

    Leaking deck to Hull joint 2005 parker 2530

    I caulked it with life caulk with the rub rail on. To do this right its taking the whole rub rail off, adding more bolts, and digging all that old caulk out which is the biggest pain in the ass and resealing and installing new rub rail. For what it costs why reuse the rub rail. I don't know, Im...

    Leaking deck to Hull joint 2005 parker 2530

    Well I started poking at it today. I was surprised as I thought they bedded the deck into sealant on the hull more. There was very little sealant and foam backer rod behind it. No wonder it leaks now. The rub rail should come off to do this right. for now Im going to get this resealed and get it...

    GELCOAT CRAZING OR CRACKING

    Thanks, Ill try the photos with that. Thanks for the help As for the gelcoat, I would appreciate any input or replies. There is absolutely no cracking in the hull below the rubrail in the same areas. Makes me think the top deck should have been a stronger layup when it was made

    Diamond Seaglaze front window removal

    This corrosion is from the boat being too closed up and not enough ventilation. It will always happen on the inside. Im sure the windows are corrosion free outside. My 2530 has the same problem. I bought it used and its an 05. I try to crack the windows enough but so it doesnt rain in. Helps...

    Hi guys. I have a 2530 with the newer shiny window frames. When I got the boat I noticed salt build up and pitting on the interior of the window frames. Polished it off and it came back. It is only on the shiny aluminum and the black anodized is perfect with no problems at all. Also the outside...
