rsnik 1 Posted June 27, 2010 Looks like a Parker 2520. I don't see a windlass for your chain rode but it must be there. You got to admit it is homely as heck and slammed together looking, but I know many guys in the industry down here who say they are the finest kind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plastikosmd 870 Posted June 27, 2010 2520, no better boat for what we do with it. Unless it was a 28! great for the bay and I love the style. I have some plans for upgrading the cabin. This fall i will be adding a bench/microwave +/- fridge, storage and sink. no windlass, i dont anchor that much <5% of the time, fish on the drift. Maybe someday if i see the need.
