I've had Parkers pretty high on my 'next boat' list. I hope Harry chimes in here and
lets us know the 'other side of the story', if there is one.

Interesting. How many Parkers out of how many Parkers have had this
problem? Has Parker modified any manufacturing procedures as a result?
Aluminium fuel tanks are pretty common on sal****er fishing boats.

Whoever cut the deck for the replacement did one hell of a job. If it were
my boat, I'd replace that tank with a custom made fiberglass tank.


Appears it was a foamed in tank. Bad construction.
