    That new mercury 300 v8 is intriguing. Have you looked at that or other options ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    new purchase

    They are great boats and hold up well as long as the previous owners have taken care of it. To assess the value post up pictures and specifics (motor , electronics). I would strongly consider having a survey conducted before purchase so you know the problem areas which you will have some of when...

    2001 2530DV - Single OB Repower Shaft Length

    That’s curious to hear. Only reason I can think of is the bracket may be higher on new models than on previous years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    1994 Parker 2320 extended cabin open back project

    My season in the north is over and winterized the boat last night. Do we have any members in the gulf shores Alabama area ? I will be headed that way this coming March for spring break and would love the opportunity to experience ocean fishing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need gelcoat help

    Here is a repair I did. It’s not perfect but I’m happy with the results. I used thickened gelcoat for the repair. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need gelcoat help

    I’ve used cabosil to thicken gel coat to apply on my keel with good results. Add it a little at a time to get the consistency your looking for (it changes quickly) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need gelcoat help

    I’ve used the same gelcoat from Cecil with good results. I used a heat gun to warm the area before applying it and after as well to gently keep the area warm to help the wax rise Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Roller trailers can put pressure points on the hull as well if stored on trailer for an extended period of time. Bunks support a hull much better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    1994 Parker 2320 extended cabin open back project

    Generally our season ends about now and starts again in May. Long winters but we make the best of it. What coastal area are you in? I have a navionics chart of Florida that came with my previous a series Raymarine display if anyone would have a use for it. (Spoken for) Sent from my iPhone...

    1994 Parker 2320 extended cabin open back project

    Towards the end of the season my a128 started acting up. I contacted Raymarine and they set me up with a new Axiom 12. I finally have it installed and I can’t wait to use it. It has a quad core processor and is amazingly fast. I have a wired remote installed near my throttle as well for easy...

    1994 Parker 2320 extended cabin open back project

    Season is basically finished in Michigan. Weather is turning cold. I did some research and learned that the extended cabin model 2320 was only produced between 1993-1997. During that time 20 were produced and 14 of those 20 were sold to the private market. So when they say this is a rare model...

    Electronics package

    Raymarine is unpopular with some people but I have had very good luck with it myself. Recently I had an issue with my display and their customer service went over and above to make it right for me. I’ve used both Garmin and Simrad as well and personally don’t feel they are any better (IMO). I...

    2320 .....with twins?

    I was driving thru my home town on my way home last night (in northern Michigan) when I saw my vessels twin in a parking lot. I turned around to take a look and was astounded to see it setup with twin outboards. I checked the hull number and it’s a 1993 model. Does anyone know if this is a...

    hello everyone from esva

    Only my starboard front window opens. I hope to remedy that in a few years. How does your vessel perform with the 250 hp? I’m running a 225hp and it could use a bit more hp IMO Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
