Took the plunge. New 2320 :)

[5150dude]

I am happy to finally be able to change my profile from "wanna-be" to be a proud owner of a 2320 I just bought at the Fred Hall Fishing Show here is So CA. 250 yammie, bait-tank, full electronics, dual batteries (the list goes on).
Plus a 3-day long range trip on the Royal Star.
I am naming her the "Helana" after my mom who would have been very proud of my decision.
Thanks to all who helped with advice and suggestions. I will be having a buch of questions about a windlass, anchors, line, fenders, etc.

Congratulations Dave!

The 2320 is one of the most popular models represented here on ClassicParker, but I'm guessing you already figured that out. :lol:

So many nooks and crannies to think about,,, so many decisions to be made about setup....but HEY, you are in the right place to find all the answers you need! And you are starting out clean, with a blank canvas!

Remember,,, you get extra points around here for posting lots of pictures of your new Parker! 8)

Very Nice Dave !

My next one will be named after my mom as well. Gone before her time, but never forgotten

Im another 2320 Parker owner in Orange County (Huntington Beach). I bought my boat new last spring.

I'd be happy to show you some of the things I've done so far and discuss some ideas for future modifications if your interested. Drop me a line.

good luck

Congratulations Dave!
Sounds like your patience paid off!

A 3-day long range trip on the Royal Star?
Was that a dealer incentive? Sounds interesting!

Yeppers. The dealer bought a block of 15 tickets and offered them to the buyers at the boat show (Fred Hall Fishing Show).
