I have never seen a Parker with a bow thruster before:

This is the first by Parker. This boat is a real dream they way we had her rigged. I have had it out twice. The thruster makes it dock like it has twins strected apart!

Wow! No small feat with that install ... bow thruster hole across the lifting strake.

 

[Bryan 2530]

Wow, must go good with that 350.

Oh the Humanity... all that and a roller trailer

I'm guessing with the 2nd steering station and the F350 and those bow thrusters.... hummmm, I'm gonna guess 80 to 85K asking price.

Those bow thrusters are like cheating though... takes all the skill and fun out of docking on a windy day.

Oh the Humanity... all that and a roller trailer

I love the roller trailer too. I couldnt live without one as powerloading solo with a cabin boat is too much of a challenge.. Besides the ramp I use in Sea Isle City NJ is so gradual that I wouldnt want to have to risk my lower unit either.

I was actually being sarcastic.... I happen to like my bunk trailer and wouldn't have it any other way. (I load and unload by myself all the time) I'm sure the trailer is negotiable....

Come to think of it... wouldn't be surprised if they were asking 90.

MSRP from Parker with the options we have installed is $97,429. The bow thruster ads $6370. We have then gone with a Raymarine E80 system installed with Radar, 1KW tranducer, Taco Sport Slam outriggers. Jensen stereo with Sirrus Sat. Adds anther $11,799. With or without the trailer.

A dealer in your area can get one just like :!:

I am using the boat as a demo currently.

1200 gear/persons full of gas cruise 30.9knts @ 13.7 GPH. Not bad for this size boat. You don't want to know what it burns at 40 + knts. :lol:

Wow, impressive fuel burn #'s at ~31 knots. That's about 2.5mpg.(statute)

As for the bow thruster, I can say as a current single OB 2520DV owner, it's a great idea !! The engine that far back from the boat's hull makes manuevering pretty tough.

WOW that is pretty nice i can say that and i dont care if that is cheating on a windy day,looks awesome!!!!
