    side bolsters 25se

    Really good info , thanks. I make lots of stuff for my boats and thought about making bolsters . Any more info on what you did ? A couple of the things that I liked about the all foam products were no additional holes drilled and light weight. IMO the last thing I need is any more weight in the...

    side bolsters 25se

    Antidote............. are those Seadek?? I wanted some stick on bolsters but read they were way to hard compared to traditional vinyl and foam. Many that have the foam say your knees still take a beating with the foam. Although they look nice I need them for fishing. After thinking about it, it...

    largest trim tabs installed on a 2520xld w/ single outboard??

    ok............ I am assuming on my 2520 xld, if I can reuse the ram I would have to reposition it so it's in the center of the longer tab or maybe add a second ram for each tab? Anybody tried this ?

    largest trim tabs installed on a 2520xld w/ single outboard??

    I did go w/ the power tech 4 blade but the boat still seems heavy in the stern at lower speeds. I have the lenco tabs now , any input on upgrading and using existing parts?

    largest trim tabs installed on a 2520xld w/ single outboard??

    I am looking to upgrade and if I do want to go as large as possible . I mostly only use the tabs for leveling but the boat is much better at slow planing when the tabs are down to even ( parallel) with the hull . This makes me believe that bigger tabs at the same angle would be better yet...

    What's the best way to make my new 2320 Parker w/F300... slower?

    Thanks for the info. With mine the droning seems to be engine noise / vibration transmitted to the hull which turns into a drum and resonates pretty bad . A v6 is not inherently smooth engine and the loads on them in a boat amplify the problem.

    What's the best way to make my new 2320 Parker w/F300... slower?

    do you ever get a droning or resonance between 4 &5k ?? at certain spots in that range mine can be bad resonance wise. It's never there above 5k and just gets happier and quieter . it may be my prop and load combo as the boat really pushes easier at the faster speeds, just can't go that fast...

    What's the best way to make my new 2320 Parker w/F300... slower?

    IMO, you are on the right track. I have a 2520 xld with the same 300 and going to a power tech 4b 13" pitch tranformed the boat in the snotty west coast swell and wind chop. on the heavier 2520 the lack of bottom end power is very pronounced. I can now hold a steady 18 -20 mph at 4000-4200 ...

    Fuel line blocked ?

    Mpellet, thanks for the function description. having the necessary items to remove it at sea seems prudent . maybe I will inspect it both to clean it and to know I can get it apart if needed at sea. I have found some fuel fittings firmly gooped together in the past. fuel flow problems are...

    Fuel line blocked ?

    For Sale 2020 2520XLD

    I tow my 2520xld w/ a chevy 2500 hd ( 8200gvw) . the small block 350 gets the job done but it's no rocket. the truck itself does fine as its rated over 10,000 towing.

    Bedding material for new deck hatch installation ?

    fwiw my go to is the white sika flex poly u when it's above the water line . it does not go off in the tube as fast as 5200 and at $5-6 a tube it doesn't really matter. it's great around the house to, dries fairly quickly , some what removable , sticks well IF you prep correctly, remains...

    Electrical System Breakers- Why Two?

    good thoughts here and agreed , the mounting on the battery in the bow will be stout to say the least. I realize i will be doing some battery durability testing but I have no issues w/ utilizing my warranties. some of our discussion brought me back to another plan I considered earlier , to...
