Hi
I have just bought 7623 (Parker 24 Bag boat). The main work she needs is a new foredeck (frame should be fine) and mast step/hog repaired. I would very grateful if anyone out there that has done this in the recent past could email me any information/pictures they have. Is it worth me converting to a side chute seeing as the deck is coming off anyway? I would only consider this if there is a major advantage to it as I would like to keep the boat as original as possible.
I know there is a little info on the old Int site but I need more detailed pictures as I have never removed this sort of stuff before on a boat.
All help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
