With normal light sea conditions I would run the engine tilt about halfway and trim tabs 3-4 bars down. Doing 4300 with my 3 blade Yamaha Saltwater Prop I would be about 28 mph and burning approx. 14 gph. Two years ago I switched over to a 4 blade power tech prop. I lost a little off the top...

Mine would have been a piece of cake BUT there is not enough clearance between the top of the tank and deck joist. I might have been able to compress hose a little more an got it thru but then I would worry that there would be constant chaffing.... :shock: I am going to try a piece of 3/8 hose...

600' of 8 plaite with 30' of G4 chain. I wish I would have got a chain put on other end as I wanted to switch it around this spring but couldn't find anyone to do the splice.

The windlass is installed over plywood section of bow

My dealer called before and said that Parker was willing to look into problem under warranty but not perform the fix that FM sent. They want me to bring the boat there so they can test vent lines, charcoal filter etc and if I want to try the fix that they sent it was on me as they feel I am by...

I thought so. I looked at earlier when I went fishing. I can see why they used a larger plate as I don't think that hole is large enough to get to it correctly

Can you take a picture of where they put the tee? I went to my dealer today and asked them to contact Parker on my behalf as they seem to dislike talking to customers. I might just do the repair myself but to be honest this has been a design flaw from the get go and Parker should take care of it...

BTW have I mentioned Parker customer service sucks. I sent them a detailed email and they give me their one line standard reply, have dealer check vent line WTF can't these people read? I want them to authorize either my dealer or outside vendor for this repair, as I don't want tp be on the hook...

I will take a picture tomorrow when I go to boat or you can send me your cell and will send it direct to you

I spoke with FMT today and they are going to send me a kit to fix this problem. On my suggestion there is another pick up tube to the left of the one being used, they are going to ask engineering if they can send me a vent fitting in that spot instead of drilling a hole in the tank and adding a...

Ok, so Florida Marine told me to remove a screw from my sending unit next time I fill up, and if it fills up they will email me a fix for this problem. Well my gauge showed I needed 95 gallons, it filled up and kicked off full at 100 gallons, so as I have said for the last 4 years it is a vent...

I wrote an email to Florida Marine Tank and explained my situation. They requested a picture of the tank label and I sent it to them. I still haven't heard back yet.

I just saw a video release of Linwood on Facebook stating that Correct Craft has acquired Parker and he will remain as head of company. Not sure what this will all mean down the road :shock:

I have no choice but to trickle and top off on a canyon trip. 20 gallons less on a 179 gallon tank is cutting it too close for comfort.

I just tried to call them and no answer, I sent a detailed message an hopefully they will send me some info, would love to give it a shot.

I still have to drip in my last 20 gallons...……...would love to see a fix for this issue

I have the ACR light and as JohnK stated you will experience glare from the rail but it is vital tool for me when I leave the dock at night to go tuna fishing, my route to the inlet is filled with markers and crab, conch traps. A couple of friends have mounted a piece of starboard on the front...

If I fish over 65' of water I will have to stop about halfway and sweep the rode down in the well or it will build up under the hawse hole and a problem will ensue lol. Fishing 130' or more requires 2 sweeps lol

TELL him to fly up and do mine I will buy him a case lol
