    Parker 2520 Floor Resurface

    After 13 seasons of hauling tons and tons of dive gear and being smeared with blood and bait, my cockpit deck is beginning to show it's age. Structurally the floor is still rock sold but much of the antiskid is rubbed off and I have a few dings here and there. I am ok with the ding repair...
