Gotcha, how about the fact that the plywood in them is wet? That’s not if structural worry right? The hull of the boat is wood less so am I correct in thinking they are glass covered ply boxes installed on top of the hull and not A worry hull strength wise?

Hi guys I have a 1999 Parker 2501, in the bilge at the stern are these two platforms built. First off what are they for? 2 stroke oil tanks? Batteries? Second upon drilling into the port one to mount my wash down pump (in picture) the plywood came out absolutely wet. Is this a big deal? Or are...

Thank you for the quick response and that’s exactly what I was hoping to hear, I’m lucky enough to say this boat will never have a single child, woman or shoeless person on board, it’s going to be used as a fishing boat exclusively, I’m going to go ahead and non skid every flat deck surface, and...

Hey guys I have a Parker 2501. It’s a 1999 hull, I have decided to re paint the non skid deck at the very least from the helm back, here are my questions and I did attempt to find an answer before posting, around the entire deck about an inch before you head up the gunnels the non skid stops and...

Hey guys having trouble finding an answer to this question without just drilling a hole. I have a 1999 Parker 2501. Below the waterline is there a wood core like there is say on the top of the gunnels?

What length motors?

What length motors? 25 or 30?

I am definitely going with twin Suzuki, but they only come in 25 inch, just a question on wether or not they are long enough for the deep V?

25 inch motors right? The only time the deep V needs a 30 is if there is a center mount motor?

Awesome thank you for the info, I am going with twin Suzuki 200’s fly by wire, boat has a 200 gallon tank so if I get right around that magic 2 mpg combined on my offshore days that will give me plenty of range and safety net,

As it sits it has twin 200 hp eTecs on it

Ok after further thought and research I’m going to go for it and put twin Suzuki 200’s on her, anyone power similar to that? Top speed? Cruise? Gph? Mph?

Gotcha, yea everyone I spoke to said it was just too little, I think I’m going to switch to Suzuki and that will solve my problems, now I wonder if I should go with 300 or just bite the bullet and go 350, that wouldn’t be over powering right? And what about this torque stead issue?

Hey guys so here is the deal,, I am going to buy a 2501 and re power. Since I’m starting fresh and plan on having this boat and platform for years resale isn’t a big issue for me. I want to use a single motor and because of my mechanic I wanted to stay with Honda. Here is the problem, Honda only...
