    Boat For Sale 2004 Parker 2510 w/2019 Yamaha 250 : $55,000

    I agree nice boat with fresh power and given some of the asking prices folks are currently asking for older Parkers, I’d think it would move quickly but absolutely need to correctly identify it as a MV. I’d be beyond pi$$ed if I went to look at a DV and found out it was a MV. Nothing wrong...

    2002 2320 repower question

    You live on the same planet I do with the same laws of physics that impact boat performance. Some of the performance #s I see reported on the internet make me wonder if they’re even from the same universe…..

    2002 2320 repower question

    I can tell you how much fuel is in my tank within 5 gallons anytime with no gauge monitoring whatsoever aside from log book keeping and fuel added during full ups. Combine that with the precise fuel burn #s that my engine delivers makes the analog data provided by notoriously inaccurate and...

    2002 2320 repower question

    If I was to replace my tank again, I would not have a fuel sending unit installed. As time passes, the gasket , screws etc around the sending unit are a very likely source for fuel leak and the new engines all tell you how much fuel you’ve burned and that data is far more accurate then in tank...

    Screws Falling Out of Console

    If you have rear access then washers & bolts is the permitted solution. If no rear access then I’m with team zip tie. I’ve also had good luck with stuffing screw holes with appropriate length tooth pick pieces that I’ve dipped in carpenter’s glue and then sending a screw home. Sounds and...

    Deep v vs modified with a twist

    I’ve owned a Parker 2520SL (Mod-V) for 18 seasons. I have never been on a the 2320 which I believe only comes in Deep-V so I am venturing a guess based on what I have read and heard about the 2320 over the years. In terms of the ride into a head sea, my guess would be that the 2320 would...

    300 hour service on 2022 DF 300

    I’m located in Connecticut and everything is on the high end of the price index. If you’re including t-stats and water pump, I am guessing in today’s economy, it would cost somewhere between $1200-1500 to get that done at a Suzuki Dealership. I own a 2019 Suzuki DF300APXX and have replaced...

    Deep v vs modified with a twist

    Deep -V will run better into a head sea than a Mod-V. The Mod-V will be more stable on the drift or anchored. In theory the Mod-V will need less power to produce = performance results and in theory should get better MPG. If resale value is of concern, IMO a Deep-V hull will sell faster and...

    Fuel Gauge Intermittent 19% to 0%

    I think if you’re relying on the accuracy of a sending unit fuel gauge and it’s reporting accurately down to 19% in the tank, your system is working well. IMO in a 100+ gallon fuel tank located in bouncing boat that operates on varying deck angles, a sending unit fuel gauge is at best a rough...

    Parker Pilot House 2120 200hp 4stroke

    There really isn’t such a thing as a “standard“ propeller. There are #s stamped on the propellers that indicate the size and pitch of the propeller, without that information there is no way to tell what’s going on with your boat. From what you’re describing , being unable to get the boat on...

    Largest swells your Parker can take

    I had a real eye opening incident about 8 years ago and learned some valuable lessons from it. I have/had run my boat for a lot of offshoring miles and through a lot of weather and there had been instances when I had to slow way down and take precautions when wx conditions developed that were...
