New here

[12Parker2320]

Hey all my buddy and I just recently moved up from a 20’ NR to a 2012 Parker 2320. We hope this might be the best forum to seek information and ask questions. I’ve noticed that on forums like THT and BD that any Parker question or inquiry gets the standard “Parker 2320 pounds the snot out of you.” We’re well aware of the ride difference between a forward helm pilot house that can be stern heavy and a CC boat. We are new to glass boats and hoping to learn from those with experience. I’ll research this forum before I start asking questions but just wanted to introduce myself

Hey Andy!

I think you'd be hard pressed to find another community on the internet with a higher concentration of your exact boat than this one. Also, I've found that most folks around here tend to be pretty friendly. So I hope you find the type of information you're looking for here!

Feel free to ask any question you have regarding your new boat, we'll do the best we can to help you out!

Nope not at all. I took advantage of the sellers market with the old boat and came up quite a bit. With that I knew I wasn’t going to get the best deal as a buyer in this market. I bought this Parker through a friend of friend for 72k. It was set up nicely with good electronics, big radar, blue water bait tank etc. the 250 had more hours than I would have liked but it’s a newer 4.2 and the compression was great. Main thing though was I trusted the seller and the boat was pristine. Did you buy the newer two tone you attached? I only ask because it looks like a really nice 19 that was for sale. Think it was going for 89k which was a hell of a price for how it was outfitted

The person you bought your boat from I know his brother when I looked at that boat you bought he was asking 78k
You got a pretty good deal there congratulations
Yes I did purchase the two-tone boat with the 300 just got it last week out of Maryland I live in Windsor California just north of Santa Rosa
Hit me up if you want to go out to Bodega sometime

That’s the one, what a gorgeous boat congrats! I’m jealous of the 300 and ya he’s a good guy and pretty well known I’m finding out. He got after the blue fin pretty good this last year. I will definitely hit you up, I can’t wait for this next season

Very interested. I just got 3 more avet MXL’s on seekers and a Shimano Talavera. Trying to get my first albacore trip in this season. Still need the tackle though for trolling

Did you use uship or some other shipping company? Wondering what was your total cost for a surveyor and shipping. The east coast prices are hard to beat and that boat you bought was priced low for how it was equipped
