1984 Sou’wester Custom built by Parker Boats for the original owner for crabbing and fishing. Unique prototype power train furnished by Cummings and Mercury Marine. Powered by a Cummins 6BT mated to a beefy Mercruiser TR Stern Drive and Borg~Warner Velvet Drive. Don’t know of another boat with this combination. I have all of the Documentation from Cummins who actually serviced the boat for several years.
We purchased boat in 2011 and performed some updates and equipped her as our recreation boat for fishing and pleasure. I had a few posts here and "thank you" for the assistance. Would make an excellent crabbing/ coastal fishing boat.
Hull: Modified V
Boat Length: 25’
Beam: 8’5”
Power: Diesel 210 HP Cummins 6BT
Drive: Mercruiser 1.5:1 TR
Transmission: BW Velvet Drive
Prop: PowerTech 4 blade 18.5” X 20” RH SS
Mercury 3 blade 19-1/2” X 21” RH Aluminum

Fuel Capacity: 40 Gallons Fuel tanks relatively new and in good shape
Engine Hours: 1200
Marine Radio and Garmin Color Fish Finder
Performance: top speed 31 MPH @ 2700 RPM
Incredible fuel consumption- This boat sips fuel running 22 mph on plane at 2000 RPM. Lots of torque and excellent acceleration. Handles great with 4 blade SS Prop. Other modifications include Todd Fishing Bolster seats and custom Bimini top. New steering complete.
Lower hull is in perfect condition. 2014 Removed all bottom paint and applied 2 coats of SeaHawk epoxy and 2 + coats Seahawk Tropikote with Biocide Plus bottom paint.
Outdrive just serviced and refinished with appropriate Primer and Seahawk Smart Solution.
Prefer to keep, but will sell dual axle LoadMaster Aluminum trailer with new tires (with boat sale)for $2500
