I’m in the Bradenton / Sarasota area and would love to see a “gathering of the Parkers.” There is a handful in my area, not many, but at least one new one in the neighborhood. I could convince him to join in as well. He has the same 2300 SE, but a 2004. He just bought it a few months back...

Wow.... you did a great job... Now I'm even more intimidated. Most places I’d use the windlass would be in 60-80’ of water…. So, a free fall sounds like the best route. How is it on your batteries? I’ve got a 24v system, but I can definitely see me pulling and dropping 20x a trip. I will...

I appreciate the link to the instructions for uploading pics.... But I'm still confused.... Your instructions is what I did originally, but the error message I get is that it can't upload JPE files... My computer shows them as JPG... What am I missing? Sorry I wasn't clear the 1st time... My...

That looks Sweet... Is it part of the Parker decal or seperated from it? I'm more concerned with the Alignment skill of the installer. :oops:

You are dead on.... The tower serves best for the Snook, Reds, Tarpon, Cobia, Triple tail.... My Snapper, Grouper, Kings, etc are mostly location / seasonal fish. The towers is a bit like cheating... God I love it... Fin

Well the boss has spoken.... She said I want " Cortez Fishing Edition" I'll need a couple extra for the cars.... What do we need to do to seal this? Thanks Fin (nautical)... actually my 5yrs son's name really is FIN. Kinda Ironic you abbreviated my login to that... :lol:

I also see a bit of a flare in my future.... let me think on what I want under the parker decal... (Meaning... I gotta ask the boss what she wants) I was going to some pics, but I'm not sure how... Any help... Thanks, Finnautical

I can't stand to have done this much to the boat and have one of the decals smeared... It seems trivial, but damn it took me 18+months to get this thing this far along and the decal keeps reminding me that I’m not finished. I’ll post the pics tonight and let you know what size the decal is...

I have a 2300 SE with a 2005 f250. I can't say exactly what prop is on the Motor. It is what came with the yammie. WOT: 6000rpm 40mph. That is all jacked up and trimmed out.. It cruises nicely on plane at about 3000rpm... (30-32mph) and will stay on plane at a fairly slow roll... Next time...

Hello all...I'm a native Floridian, living on the gulf coast. I’ve always wanted a Parker, but never could afford one. So, I waited…. In 2004, Hurricane IVAN slammed into Alabama leaving in its path, a lot of boat restoration opportunities. With it, a batter and beaten 1990 2300 SE Parker...
