Sweet!

Notice the Sou'Wester banner over the Parker logo?

Yep, I thought you would notice the teak rails and cabin door first.

Local dealer was Jones Brothers. Yes the same Jones Brothers that makes the super boats now.

Wow, That looks like my boat.....mines an OB instead of the I/O. Is that the correct logo for an 89?

 

[Parker23]

Any inside the cabin photos?

"goinsfishin", I'm thinking that's about a circa 1987 or '88 ('89 is possible) brochure. Parkers were called Sou'westers at first, this was a transitional logo, now of course, Parkers.

No inside pics. I have the spec page coming up later. The brochure is only 8 pages including front and back covers.

Fish:

Is there any way you could get a close up of "SOU'WESTER". I am trying to figure out the font and size/exact positioning of the letters.

Thanks.

Does this work?

First you giggle at the irreverant anti-Yamaha remark that communist B-Faithful made, and NOW you want a favor? :shock: :? :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[B-Faithful]

Communist???? You are the one who supports Parker forcing a particular brand motor and trim tabs on you :wink: I am Pro-choice--- (only when it comes to marine power :wink: )

Thanks.

Funny is funny. Democrat/Republican, Merc/Yami they all have their moments.

This is the real Sou`wester logo.
I just happen to have two pair of these items in my 'stash'.

The logo became this later...

That's cool. I would love to take the Parker logo off and replace it with the original Sou'wester decal. Of course the PH still has the Parker name on either side. I think that would be kind of nostalgic and unique. Definitely would generate a lot of questions especially since I have the orginal 2/3 open back PH. Final pics still to come. Maybe this weekend.

Funny you should mention that...

I got myself a double set of Sou`wester logos some time back to do exactly that... but decided to replace my scarred up Parker logos with a fresh set of new ones. Then I added a little something extra.

Someday she might just become a Sou`wester... you just never know. :wink:

I was lucky enough to get a set of those sou'wester stickers that Kevin is referring to. Looks pretty cool:
