    Front Window for 2520 needed.

    Thanks for your reply Brent, As stated in my posting I spoke with the manufacturer (Wynne) and the window is going to take 8 weeks to get. I can not wait that long. I am a for hire charter business that runs roughly 275 days a year and I can't be sitting around waiting for a window to be...

    Front Window for 2520 needed.

    My hinged (the one that opens) front window is shot. The boat is a 2001 so its the old style window. I got with the manufacturer and it's $560 and 8 weeks lead time. I'm hoping to find someone parting out an old boat or for whatever reason they've got a opening window for sale. I can't wait...

    Help with Prop on 2520

    Judging by the fact that it goes forward when I put it in "forward", I am pretty sure I have a left hand prop on a left handed gear. So anyways, does anyone have this same hull, same transom and same engine out there?

    Help with Prop on 2520

    I recently repowered my 2520 DVSC with notched transom from a Yamaha OX66 250 to a 2006 Yamaha F250 with left hand rotation. (Yes I definately have a 2520 Deep V with a single engine on a notched transom). I called Parker and talked with their engineer about the prop. He recommended a yamaha...

    Seeking Yamaha 250 Four Stroke

    Time to repower. I need a Yamaha 250 or 300 four stroke. Preferably under 1000 hours. Will pay cash. The big problem is I need it now, and I live in south Florida. I know this lowers my odds to about .00001%, but I Figured its worth a posting. Brian

    Re-powering.... which length shaft?

    I have a 2001 2520DVSC with a notched transom and a yamaha 250 2-stroke on it with a 30 inch shaft. I know this is very unusual, as Parker doesn't sell the deep v 2520 with a notched transom and single engine... but they did this by special request. I am putting on a new Yamaha 300 and I am...

    Fuel tank slow to fill

    Hey guys, when I fuel up, I have to be very very careful not to fill it too fast. I have a 2520 from 2000. It has a 200 gallon tank. If I want to put in 100 gallons, it takes me over an hour to do so. The breather is pouring air out like crazy, the fuel fill hose has no obstructions or...

    Capsizing Concerns???

    As for the conditions, I fish out of Islamorada Fl. We don't have any inlets, but the wind was blowing 20ish out of the East, which should make the seas on the reef about 3 feet. I was only in 50 feet of water. Unfortunately, the current was running straight into the wind at about 5 knots, as...

    Capsizing Concerns???

    Ok. Thanks for the info. Have you ever felt like you were actually close to going over? I might just be paranoid... and I hope that's the case. Brian

    Capsizing Concerns???

    It's nothing to do with the trim tabs. It's when the boat gets surfing down the front side of the wave and uncontrollably turns at an angle, then when it hits the bottom of the trough it stops and the breaking wave that you were riding pushes agianst your side adding to the momentum that the...

    Capsizing Concerns???

    I have had a 2520 Deep V for about 5 months now. It's my first boat of this design, so a few of the things about it are a little different than I am used to. My biggest concern is that when I go down sea and get turned at a 45 degree angle to the wave it feels as though the boat wants to...

    WTB Fiberglass bow pulpit for 2520

    Hey there, Thanks for the info, I appreciate the pointers. I already mounted LED side lights on opposite the sides of the house, and I have a mooring cleat ready to mount aft of the pulpit after I install it. Ultimately I plan on installing an "Easy Puller Anchor Hauller", which means the...

    WTB Fiberglass bow pulpit for 2520

    Hey guys, I have a 2520 but it didn't come with a bow pulpit for the anchor roller. I installed a small steel pulpit with roller, but I would like the proper Parker pulpit that is pre-molded to fit over the gunwale and look pro. I have no idea what a proper price to pay for this would be, so...

    Cracking deck on 2520

    I just bought a 2520 built in 2001. Its the deep v with a single transom mounted yamaha 250. When I looked at it on a stand at the dealership there was one cracked area about midway betweeen the back of the house and the transom halfway between the gunwale and the center of the boat. It was...

    WANT TO BUY 2520

    I appreciate the heads up on the boat in Miami. I actually went and looked at it a while ago. Lets just say it wasn't what I was looking for. If you want specifics on that email me personally. I respect the sellers privacy enough not to talk about his boat openly on a forum. Good luck...

    WANT TO BUY 2520

    Unfortunately yes. You have a damn beautiful boat, but I run charters and the deck space is a huge selling point. That loss of space on the 2530 would really hinder my operation. Thanks though. Brian
