    Livewell Seacock:

    2000 21se fuel tank replacement

    The adventure begins. Pulled console, Leaning post and Live well. Cut the deck and pulled the tank. The big surprise is that the tank was primarily bolted in with VERY LITTLE FOAM used! (See photos). My tank builder is pretty backed up so I’m looking for a recommendation of a reputable tank...

    2000 Parker 21se Upgrade

    Have a couple questions re upgrading my 2000 21se. * The fuel tank is to be replaced first. I got a price of $15 to $18 per gallon for 3/8' aluminum 90 gallon tank. I'm told the material price increase is up due to shortages and supply chain issues. Sound right? * Any informed ball park guesses...
