I feel your pain Flukenewsty. I had a 21 SE and I went through the exact same thing you describe here. It isn’t easy to diagnose. I replaced the sending unit, replaced the hoses, had the tank scrubbed twice, etc. Ultimately, a pressure test revealed the culprit. In hindsight I should have...

Never mind jpg1969. I just re-read your post and see that, like me, $2,300 only gets you the control box. I had a brain block...couldn't fathom that for TWICE the price that's all you got. I assume it had to be a kit that included those other three components. WOW,just wow. not liking...

Jpg1969 did the $2315 include the control box, station selector, start/stop, and kill switch? I ordered mine from SIMyamaha and they sent the control box but not the other components. Part number On box isn't matching order part number either. I hoping to get this sorted out with SIMyamaha...

I had water in my fuel too. I spent ton of money and time chasing solutions...new hoses, racor w clear bottom, changed and resealed sending unit, changed fill cap, etc. finally had the tank pressure tested. It failed. I had small pin holes,in the tank letting water in (and letting fumes and...

Thanks CaptMatt. I have been thinking of moving the batteries to the console too. So much room in the console...almost too much.

We are super excited about our new 23 DV. We had the maiden voyage this week end, and as expected she ran great! We are loving the DV ride vs our old 21 SE. See glamour shot below.. My only complaint is the wiring …low priority area for Parker (IMO). I was adding a chart plotter this...

Thanks for the stringer pics. That helps.

Does anyone have pics before the deck goes on? Wondering how the gas tank lays.

Ok, I know these pictures arent the best. At this phase it basically looks like a bathtub. I'm hoping to post more soon. It will likely be when I take delivery in a couple of weeks.

Thanks Jersey Jim. Brent I took a tour about a year ago and that fueled me to sell my 21 se and order this 23 dv. I ordered it with the front seating delete. The whole family is super excited. Hope to post more pics soon.

Thanks to Jeff at Parker and Josh at Central Marine. Super excited to see the progress. :lol: :lol:

Eroc15 please post more pics. Great t-top and upper station!

That's good feedback. Thanks Johnkn. Congrats on the new boat. You have to post pics when it comes in.

I like Warthog5’s tagline “Just cause it’s new, doesn’t mean it’s worth a damn”. I have a 16 year old 21 SE that’s like a brick. You can’t break it, believe me I’ve tried. It’s time for me to trade in and move up…looking at the 23 DVCC. This new rigging and the larger console aren’t my...

http://www.daremarina.com/new_galleria.asp?pov=4581217 Finally had time to post a pic, I think...first time posting a pic on here. Hope it works. I've looked at several dealer sites here in the southeast and it appears all the newer model bracket boats are rigged this way.
