    New 2320 cabin door

    We just got in this 2017 2320 to Washington State. I like the looks of the new style cabin door. Window is longer vertically for better visibility. Door and window are more rounded to match the two windows to the side. Door handle looks a bit better than the last one too.

    SeaDek installed in 2120

    Looks great! Is it more comfortable or have more cushion to it? Thinking about doing the back deck for wear protection and more comfort standing at the rear helm all day. I know they have different thicknesses. They also do some cool gunwale bolster type applications.

    Undersized Fish Box - 2520 XLD

    I would be very interested in this project. Up here in the NW, almost everyone wants in-deck boxes, except some hard core Parker owners who wouldn't have them. They like their deck integrity, and I see their point. Because you can't gravity drain the boxes overboard, except into the bilge, which...

    Newbie looking for Parker Advise

    Obviously both great boats for what they can do. Hard not to advise to go 2320 now, for what it sounds like your history was and future usage will be.

    When is Yamaha 6 year warranty promotion?

    The last 6 year promo ended on November 22, 2016. Hopefully they'll come out with another one you can utilize. Seems like they're happening more often.

    New 2017 2820 Openback

    I bet you'll be over 60 MPH with that set up. Not that you'll see it often, or that it really matters. We've got a guy that saw 63MPH in good conditions with the same set up. He passes everybody going out and coming back. Those 300's Yamahas are good motors, and good power for the boat...

    Deciding between new 2320 and 2520 XLD

    Having run both the 2320 with single 300, and 2520 XLD with twin 200's on the same day, back to back, I can honestly say you've got a tough choice, with no bad outcome. Really just comes down to how much you're willing to pay, and what it's worth to you to go for something you'll love, to...

    Spray from 2015 2520 XLD stern.

    Couple questions, and fairly new to the forum so bear with me. Is this spray issue all or mostly on the 2520 with single outboard? I've got twin 200's, and don't notice anything out of the ordinary. A bit of spray from one side, but didn't think too much of it. What problems is the spray issue...

    Best kicker for 2520

    Yamaha 9.9 has been perfect for salmon trolling on my 2520 XLD. Lots of folks getting away from the TR-1's and tying to the main, with rear helm steering and throttle controls, and Garmin autopilot on the main. TR-1 works great when it works. All that movement can lead to break down's with the...

    Garmin 7212?

    Running the 7612 up front, 7610 out back. Nothing but good things to say about them.

    2320 Questions

    Just love the 2320's. We're ordering them with 300 Yamaha power now, and it's perfect. Lots of guys running 40-50 miles offshore for tuna with them off WA coast. 225 power works, 250 better, 300 perfect. Too many factors to give a definitive answer on height, you're just going to have to get a...
