Any experience out there with TuffCoat Marine or other rubberized nonskid coating for interior decks? Marine epoxy with grit like Monster grip? The old webbed gel coating (pictured, and probably not original) on my 1990 25 CC is starting to peel in places, so I'm looking at DIY options for a...

I'm thinking of selling my 1990 25"4" Parker CC. Beam is 9.5 feet. Dead rise in stern is 14 inches and the boat drafts 12 inches with a 2012 Honda 200 HP outboard with about 260 hours. Floor and transom are solid. It has removable bow cushions with plenty of storage in hatches underneath...

Three years ago, I had my 1990 25 ft cc parker bottom stripped down to the gel coat, new barrier coat put on, and coated with high quality ablative anti-fouling paint at Pamlico Boat and Fiberglass Repair. Cost was about $1200. Got 2 seasons in the water out of it, early May through mid...

Caught this whopper on my ultralight fishing for White Perch. 1st fish of 2015. Happy new year! Peter Boettger 25 ft Parker CC Greenville, NC

Will be taking my 1990 Parker 25 CC (no t-top) out of the water in mid november and have looked around a bit to find a strong, durable light weight cover for it, but not having much luck on the web. I do use the boat 1-2 times each winter so I do not want a major project taking it off/on. Last...

My sons, Joey and Marc, and I were cruising on Delilah out of the Pungo River onto the Pamlico sound at 6AM on Saturday when we spotted some tremendous activity further out. Dolphins or rays? No fins showing. Tarpon? Nope. As we moved in quietly we saw the new penny copper of old reds as...

My older son Joey finished a 5 year stint in the Marine Corp last December, and has been in a real drought for catching fish since that time. But a couple weeks ago he broke the curse and caught these two pups a few minutes apart on very light tackle. On the larger one we actually had to back...

I'm thinking the conventional notched transom on my 1990 25 cc will be fine for a couple more years, but some little things are making me think that it may need replacement in the next 3-4 years. Any ball park figures or ranges on what it should cost for someone to do a competent job? Thanks...

I've been thinking of hauling my 25 cc to the Va Beach area this fall to put her in dry dock, and have it there for the fall and winter run of big ocean/lower bay stripers in the CBBT area and outward. Ive been thinking about mid-November. Or is that too early? Anybody know about when that...

We finally found the old drum! Went to three different spots starting at about 5PM After an hour at the 3rd spot, about 11PM, I was ready to throw in the towel. But then the moon came up and bam!...it was on. Caught a 42", a 43", lost two, and a 5th one snapped off. Must have been a real...

I've never been much on T tops, but wanted a quick way to get out of the sun or rain that was an easy set-up and allowed as much freedom of movement as possible. I may be a nerd, but its working out quite well so far. 1990 25 CC

Here are some pics from last weekend of two U. S. Marines and their wives (Caleb/Samantha and Jared/Faye) that bid for my cottage and fishing trip aboard "Delilah" at the Pamlico-Tar River Foundation oyster roast last fall. 1st class people and an honor to spend time with them. Peter...

Here are some samples of the speckled trout we've been catching in the creeks along the Pamlico this month. Have been using the jon boat, but they are starting to move out into the big water now, so will be dropping Delilah into her slip soon. Peter Boettger Greenville, NC Parker 1990 25 cc

Okay fellas, I'd like to introduce you to a book I published late last fall called "Fishing the Western Pamlico". Please do not mistake this for solicitation, because all of my share goes to the Pamlico-Tar River Foundation (http://www.ptrf.org). Anyway, when I moved here from the Eastern...

I am writing this note to introduce my recently published book, "Fishing the Western Pamlico" (http://www.warrenpublishing.net/). This book was written to give the reader who is entirely new to fishing, or an experienced fisherman who is new to the region, a basic primer for fishing the waters...

Not a banner year by any means, but we are finding enough specks here on the Pungo/Pamlico to keep us interested. My son Marc is pictured aboard "Delilah" (1990 Parker 25 CC) here with 3 decent ones he caught on top water with a zara spook jr about a week ago.

The marine holding the monster trout on the bow is my son, who had the privilege of drawing 1st blood.

Well, finally she's in the water just 2 days ago. In 6-11 I sold my 21 SE, was looking for a 23, but stumbled on this 1990 25 CC on Tampa Bay Craig's list. They don't make'm like this with a 14 degree deadrise anymore, perfect for the versatility I need in the Pamlico. So after some cals and...

Getting ready to put a new honda 200 on my 1990 25 cc, knotched transom, which will be kept in brackish water slip. I'm guessing part of the motor mount itself will stay submerged. How/what should I paint it with to keep from fouling? Thanks.

Other than a Parker dealer, any ideas where I can get some new lids for my rear jump seats?
