A few months ago, I set out looking for an 18 Parker to redo. I ran across a 1992 18 with a blown 120 Johnson, T-Top and a Trailer. I didn't want the top and it was in terrible shape. I was able to sell the top and engine to a wholesaler the day I bought it. The boat was structurally in great shape, but had been sitting out for some time and needed a lot of cosmetic work. A month or so later I was able to find the engine I had wanted. It was a low hour freshwater used 2000 Yamaha SX150 EFI Saltwater Series. Here is a list of things I have done to the boat thus far.
Wet Sand
Compound
Buff
New Windshield
New Grab Rail
New Decals
Cleaned Up the Wiring
New Compass
New Yamaha Rigging, Cables and Harnesses
New Hydraulic Steering
Under Gunnel LED Lights
Gelcoat work to fill holes from t-top, old transducer holes, old trim tab holes etc.
New Raw Water Thru Hull Fitting
New Fuel Sending Unit
Still to come are a new Stereo and new Garmin combo unit. The boat runs great with the 150. 26kts at 3500 RPM's! 19p prop. Hopefully the fuel tank will hold up a few more years! Seems fine now!
