    2005 yamaha 115 problem

    Surging at idle also? Or only at mid to high rpm? That's a tough one since it sounds like you've worked on everything between the tank and the injectors. You double checked all those connections that were just worked on to make sure air isn't getting in the fuel line somewhere? You could rule...

    2120 Helm window leaking

    If you can tell that the latches are not pulling snug then adding a few washers to increase the height of the block that the latches contact would be a good place to start, as you suggested. If that fixes it then you could find a more permanent fix that achieved the same thing. I’m not sure...

    92inboard2510. How many fuel lines should I have?

    I don't know inboards, but I would think only one line is required to provide fuel. It sounds like it set up to have some redundancy, which seems like a good idea. Are the two fuel pumps wired to run at the same time? Maybe there's a switch somewhere that selects which pump runs? It would be...

    Off white color color to match older Parkers

    I agree that all coolers seem to be plain white with no options to match the old Parker color. Your best bet might be to pick a cooler you like that someone makes seat cushions for and then paint the cooler. If you prep well and use a good primer and paint that’s specific to plastic you can get...

    Steering wheel knob?

    The first pic has a strap on it but if you look at the other info it can also mount as a bolt through.

    Steering wheel knob?

    Inspection Pie Plate replacement

    Seems like the original company has been bought out. The new stuff they sell under the same name has a different part number so I dunno if their gaskets would be a 100% match. But if they're not responsive then the quickest, easiest route to a new gasket might be Tempress, they have a variety of...

    Fusion MS-RA 70 plug and play amplifier

    That radio has preamp outputs, but I don't think there's anything that's truly plug and play and doesn't require getting out the out the wire crimpers. You'll have to hook up your speaker wires to the amp. And wire the power for the amp and probably the remote turn on wire.

    Parts Wanted Back Rest

    Do you have a picture of the leaning post? Are you adding a back rest because there is nothing there now, or are you trying to replace the cushion on an existing one?

    Classic Pilot Chair Cushions & Covers

    I don't think so. I think it's essentially just flexible paint so the prep and adhesion promoter is key. I've heard of using clear coat as a last step but I didn't do it, just allowed a long dry time and used 303. Here are the steps I kept in my notes so I could reproduce the results if needed...

    Classic Pilot Chair Cushions & Covers

    I think this is it: https://www.westmarine.com/buy/wise-seating--standard-pilot-chair-cushion-set-only--17096090 If the piping at the seam wasn't cracked I'd suggest using the vinyl paint for a budget fix. I spent about $100 on SEM paint and followed all the prep steps and had good results on...

    What are these pedestals?

    They are not structural to the hull, just a mounting spot for batteries. Try drilling (but not all the way through to the other side) somewhere away from the existing holes to see if the moisture is everywhere or just at existing holes. If it’s all over you might look at having some work done so...

    Rear Helm for 1994 2520 PILOT HOUSE?

    If your outboard has electronic controls instead of mechanical then it would be pretty straightforward. Adding a steering wheel might require changing both helms but I'm not 100% sure on that. You might just need to plumb a second helm into your existing set up. But yes, with a newer outboard...

    Inactive - NOT MY BOAT - 2530 for sale

    This is not my boat but thought members might like to see a 2530 for sale for what seems like a pretty good price. And the broker selling it thinks it's a 2520 so you can go into negotiations knowing that you're dealing with someone that maybe doesn't know what they have. 2006 hull with 2015...

    Fiberglass work

    The good news is that you can always grind down the parts you don’t like and try again. After grinding any mistakes, make sure to hit the areas that didn’t get sander down with a scotch brite pad and water to give yourself good adhesion of the next layer. Epoxy resin leaves behind some sort of...

    Wiring for dual voltmeters

    I agree the perko switches are not fun to deal with. Sounds like hardwiring at the console will give me the same info the Yamaha gauges give now. A BEP cluster is on my short list of projects but I’ve been trying to pace myself financially on this boat over the last 9 months as I’ve tried to...

    Wiring for dual voltmeters

    I'd like to get two voltmeters so I can have one for each battery. As far as I can tell, my yamaha gauges can't tell one battery from the other, just that there's a power supply that I control from the bilge 1/2/combined battery switches. Anyone have any examples of how they've approached this...

    Suggestions appreciated for electronics upgrade on 2015 Parker 2120 SC

    That's a good looking boat! Looks like you have a good space to work with. Check out the 1243xsv as another option. I think it's a little more fishing friendly and support some good transducers (and a little cheaper too). Seems like the transducer that's best for you all depends on what depth...

    Rear deck hatch

    I think the hatches in the cuddy are the same and can be swapped with your rear hatch if you just want one on the deck that’s a little less beat up. And although they don’t make the same one anymore I think you can still order the old model gaskets if you just want to replace that.
