Sent you an email on Sunday evening.

Sorry Candace ...... that anchor puller was sold with the boat. But we never had a single problem with it.

The hull weighs about 3100-3200lbs. The motor weighs about 500 and the 150 gallons of fuel weighs 1,000lbs Whatever gear you add to the boat would need to be factored into the carry capacity of the trailer. The weight of the trailer also needs to be factored. In my case, I purchased a...

Here ya go. This is the stringer diagram for my 23 DVCC with a 155 gallon fuel tank.

Me? I'd jump at the opportunity. You can safely assume that the diesel engine will run just fine today assuming it ran fine 4 years ago. Diesel fuel is much more stable than gasoline. The outdrive will need immediate servicing. It will cost you several hundred dollars to replace the...

Kind-of. I found a 2801 that needs re-powering. I also have a pair of Mercury 3.0l 150hp engines. I'm looking for fact-based evidence of someone who may have powered a 28 Parker with a pair of 150's who can provide empirical numbers of what is expect-able performance.

The Yamaha SWS isn't a bad prop at all. It's actually quite good and very, very similiar to the highly acclaimed Mercury Mirage Plus. I've run both on my 23DVCC and can't really tell a difference in performance, handling or efficiency. And the 17" SWS SHOULD be the right prop. Economical...

That's what I remember too Jim. I just found this thread in the archives of Classic Parker: 150s on a 28?

I know that most 28 Parkers come equipped with a pair of 250 or 300 engines. But I seem to recall that someone put a pair of 150 engines on a 28. Does anyone recall this boat? As I recall, the boat was in Virginia

I think I'd follow the label instructions...... as well as all of the free advice on the Internet that says not to use Rain-X on plastic

I promise you ..... it's not hard.

I built it myself. https://www.thehulltruth.com/boating-forum/982033-building-custom-sized-cooler.html

As Jim said ^^^^^^^, move your weight forward. The trim tabs only need to be used to make small adjustments as people and weight moves laterally (port to starboard and vise versa) to keep a level running attitude. Other than small adjustments, I never use the trim tabs on my 23DVCC. If your...

Dang ..... 50 gallons of extra fuel on the deck!! Y'all like to run!

I think I would try to move some weight forward....... all Parker boats behave poorly with weight behind the leaning post. Try to move your ice box up front and you might find that you don't need to change the trim tabs at all. As you can see, I built this 250qt cooler to address the exact...

Yes ..... you read that right ..... $11k for a 25MV Parker that needs a full restoration. No floor. Needs stringers and transom https://fortmyers.craigslist.org/col/boa/d/naples-25-ft-parker-hullneeds/7154853740.html

What the OP describes is very common with all motors but especially Yamaha. It's called "prop chatter" as others have already mentioned. Normally, using a rubber bushing in the hub of the prop removed the chatter at low RPM's but such doesn't appear to be the case with the OP. My Mercury...

Great product. I've owned 2. But I never knew that you were based in Parrish, FL (Manatee County)

$7k ..... you can't possibly go wrong. The motor alone is almost worth the asking price. I like the fact that you are buying without a T-top. You can now have a custom built top to whatever design, size and shape that you desire. Cost you $4k for a beautiful, functional top.
