This is one heck of a deal. I have had the same radio (minus dsc) for 5 seasons, never the first hiccup. My Icom's for sale, $44,000, includes free Parker boat. :D

You'll get a lot of comments for Garmin :roll: , Raymarine :roll: , etc. IMO, you should go straight to the top...FURUNO, see here: http://www.furunodeepsea.com/products/c ... index.html (I think you'll need two batteries)

1-Parker installs their drains in transom, BELOW the wood reinforcement, in solid fiberglass. 2-In the event of a transom drain plug failing, won't leak while boat is on plane. Not so with a hole in bottom. 3-The flange of a thru bottom drain plug only adds resistance and disturbs water under...

Congratulations 8) Will a picture be forthcoming?

Nice 18. Congratulations. What's the Parker in background with the twin 150's and a bracket?

NOAA Saturday forcast lower Cape Fear...W wind 10k, 70 degrees. Plenty of kings just offshore (small 10-25#'s). Around here, "East is least, West is Best" for fishing. I've called everyone I know, all busy w/Christmas stuff. Admiral, my regular fishing partner is busy this weekend. Arrrrrgggg.

If you leave out the optional "cooler insert" under front console seat, you would have a two and one half foot by one foot access hole. I slide 5 gallon buckets in and out of console, not to mention at 6'5" and 200#'s, I can lay inside console for rigging). :? IMO, the new toilet console...

Bennett Marine says at least 1 inch chord for every foot of boat. In your case minimum 18x9. Your lucky as Parkers have traditional flat transoms (no cutesy styling offsets) and you can add all the tab you want.

About the same as B-Faithful's, except you don't need a chartplotter....approach your #'s, when you get there, shift to neutral and let boat drift off. Look at GPS and follow the compass heading back to waypoint, go past #'s throw anchor and set. Let boat drift back letting out line until...
