Finally, New to me Parker 1801

[Matrix]

After many years of drooling, I have finally joined the Parker family with a new to me 2004 1801 w/F150, 45 Gallon Offshore bait tank/leaning post, aluminum t-top, raw water wash down, double axle trailer, Furuno FF, Garmin GPS and Icom VHF. I cannot wait to splash her, hopefully next week.

Congratulations,

150 is just what that boat needs. Question: you sure that's a ss T-Top? If you launch this boat often, might want to consider some tall trailer guides as the first time you encounter some wake, your rub-rail can come down on that low guide.

Congrats and welcome to the site.

Those guides look adjustable. I'd move them out a few inches, and move the board with the carpet up about 12"

Your right about the T-top, force of habit. I will also look at adjusting the guides. It is not visible in the picts, but there are some light marks on the Parker logo from rubbing the guides. Pulling them out slightly should prevent that in all but the worst conditions.

Nice ride. That's got everything I wish I had on my new to me '97 1800. Good luck with her.
