Need help with replacing original panel switches, 2008 2300CC. What works as a replacement or any idea of the manufacturer Parker used for the panel?

Keep us updated , good luck

I stand corrected it was such nice lay up of glass it looked like wood With out careful looks d light. Using a light yeah,there is a half moon like area pure glass and not the thick core I. The rest of transom. Smart by Parker helps to avoid any potential rot in this area.m

Year ago when Dale was active here, he had great pics of the solid build and over-built wood on Parkers. On my boat, the whole transom is encased sealed big beefy wood. Break the seal, ie: drill into, tap with screws, and trouble can start.

Life Caulk or the Boat life caulk, good idea I forgot to mention that brand, thanks. The drain plug area is now a scared spot. No touchy by strangers. 😉

The winner is ….. Remove 3 screws and replace the flange. I did get a bigger wrench, and soaked plug in PBlaster best I could with the vertical. luckily before hulk power was used I stopped with the wrench. ‘real easy to remove the 3, 3/4” screws ( yes only 3/4” could be easy to rip the whole...

You’ll enjoy the 2300. Noansweres for your question, but they can go in about 2 1/2 feet of water with a soft mud bottom. 1 person , 1/2 tank of gas, were the specs before forward progress was suspended until floatation dynamics changed 😂

thansk. You think I can get out the flange without bringing chunks of boat with me. any other ideas to get just the plug out without touching the flange? Ya, i did the plug since new and first year someone else touches and this 🤬. Ya the plug is got rounded from a trial I suspect in trying to...

I use transom tie down straps that are basic short rackets as mention by Warhog. Check US Cargo Control,mthey make straps of all kinds and lengths.I would say 2” wide and either endless or with 2 rubberized hooks and all in for $15 you’ll be done.

Sea foam has alcohol in it. It’s is good for cleaning up small engines, 2 cycle engines like chain saws and lawn mowers and such. I Would not use it on a boat or motorcycle, engines I care about. In test Stabil basic red beat it . stabil marine, and Marvels Mystry oil added to gas on 4 strokes...

2008 2300 CC has porta potty in console. front platform insert, combing pads added. repowered with Suzuki 250 , 16 x 17 SS prop. orig Yamaha 1750 hours was a 250 . no issues ever until she died. Salt water damage from thermostats or else covered engine unknowing then caused one side of cam to...

I ve always coated the plug and threads with Axel grease. My marina launched my boat last year so no idea what went one. it is good and stuck and won’t come out. Any experience in removing the 3 screws and outer brass flange on a Parker? . Any suggestions :

I went from Yama to Zuke , Zuke is heavier . Move up one hole , mount higher one hole, from the Yama mount as a starting point.

Yes, there is a market for used outboards, ask you installer or list on Craigs , be reasonable with the price and it will be gone.

RE-powered with a Suzuki 250 from my Yama 250 on my 2008 2300 DVCC . I had cables for shift on the Yama and now with the Suzuki. Don’t even notice them.

It sure is a complete job to barrier and then bottom paint. That said, a 18 up north, and if it is seasonal use, recreationally. I would scuff up bottom a little with 80 grit sand paper by hand and apply a good water based bottom paint and get boating. You’ll build up enough layers in a...

You’re gonna love . Very fishy boat for multiple conditions and species.

Made one out of good reinforced clear hose off the roll at the hardware store and GHT connectors. It’s lasted 6 seasons so far.

The price has creeped up over the years. I would still shop at that price though.
