It’s not gonna be a speed demon by any means but if the engines is propped correctly and running on all cylinders it will be OK. I’d guesstimate about 35ish at WOT, comfortable cruise in the mid 20s if it’s not rough and 1.5-2.0 mpg depending on load and sea state…

Hard to do Difficult question to answer without you sharing what make/model and size of the boat you’re attempting to insure…

If you’re not already doing it , start keeping a fuel log. Fill your tank, keep track of hours run between fill ups and then how many gallons added on the next fill up. Divided # gallons added by hours run, do this every time you run the boat and fill up. The more precise you are with your...

I just looked and see the Sirius “Fish Mapping” plan at $110. I don’t have that plan. Zero experience on that data from me, sorry for the confusion. It was just ignorance on my part not intentional bull$hit🤣.

I don’t find the temperature data to be very accurate/valuable BUT I am running an older plotter that might not show as much/ detailed imagery as a newer one would. There isn’t any penalty for the “pause” but the service is not cheap, with music my bill is around $60 a month. I haven’t...

Yes, you can put a “pause” on the account. I do it every year for 5 months.

I have Sirius and fish offshore in the Northeast. Sirius is useful at times but IMO frequently over rated on internet forums by subscribers. We don’t get a lot of pop up thunderstorm events in the Northeast particularly offshore, in Southern Waters where that type of weather is a lot more...

Followed very closely by that BEAUTIFUL sound of the drag, on the reel that caught the fish, that resulted in the bloody deck dumping out line during the knockdown/hook up. I’m getting a bit of a rush just thinking of how absolutely awesome that sound is….!

I’d say good luck with that plan. Up until very recently, all the outboard makers had waiting lists that exceeded a year…

Hour distribution in the assorted RPM ranges look to me that the engine has been run responsibly. My only concern with hours would be that I would make sure it’s propped so that you can get close to that 6000 at WOT. If the lower unit isn’t beat to $hit, my $$ says you’ve got a winner there...

They Don’t Build Em Like They Used To…👍

Careful now, sharing that sort of info, you’re likely to trigger a Parker “EXPERT” who will explain that can’t be true because Parkers have “wood in them”….😂🤣😂🤣

I can’t speak for the 350 but did repower my boat with a 2019 white Suzuki DF300APXX and run with a Suzuki Water Grip 3 x 16 x 17 propeller. My boat is a 2005 Parker 2520SL, mod-v hull (notched transom/no bracket) my engine has a 30” leg, boat is slipped and has Petit Hydrocoat on the bottom...

Make sure you look carefully at all the files he attaches to his boat listings, you might get a big surprise, I know I did 🤣😂🤣😂.

You’re welcome & good luck 👍….

I know you said that the system is “purged” but that sure sounds like air in the lines to me…

There is a difference between no engine and a running two stroke that you might want to replace being on a used boat. If the 2 stroke engine is running good just because it’s a 2 stroke doesn’t mean that it has no value to the seller. If this picture below is the boat you’re talking about...

Condition means everything. At 20 years old the fuel tank is definitely a concern. Boat is sitting with no trailer and no engine, would leave me to think that it hasn’t had a lot of attention, which means the pry out inspection ports in the deck have most likely been leaking for years. That...

👍👍

I’m confused, and curious is this boat in New England or California??
