    Wanted Parker 2320

    I have glass on the underside of my deck and it is a 1996. Check the pics in my post in the "projects" section and you can see clearly the top and bottom fiber glass. I had to scrape out the soft wood around the hatches and scrub the fiber glass. The pics include a good image of the hollow...

    2320 Soft Deck Repair

    I am amazed how it rides in a 4' head sea. This is only when I am running real light. I think its the combination of light motor, lots of power, and the doel fin lifting the stern to get the boat level.

    2320 Soft Deck Repair

    Its a 1996 with a 2012 250 Etec. FYI - The Etec is several hundred pounds lighter than a 4 stroke plus the Doel Fin (not pictured) really gets the boat up and out of the water to greatly improve the ride in 3-4' seas, especially if I keep the tank at a qtr tank or so.

    2320 Soft Deck Repair

    I noticed the deck seemed a bit soft around the hatches and probing found that the wood core between the two sheets of fiber glass had absorbed moisture. This makes the deck lose its carrying capacity as it relies on a stiff core to keep the top and bottom sheets in their position as the top...

    13" Moeller Fuel Tank Sender and 150 gal tank calculations

    Well there is a complement to Murphy's Law and that is, Despite your worst efforts things will work out. The original sender on our 2320 was acting up and finding the tank drawing online showing about 14" tank depth, we opted for the Moeller 13" sender. Well, I figured with that huge...

    Uh-oh....Repowered 2320 is "Underwater"

    UPATE - I installed gasket all around the transom door and problem solved. The water still inundates over the transom notch but it does not get into the deck area. Full Transom and bracket would be nice but we do a lot of drift fishing and having had inboards all my life, the less sticking out...

    Uh-oh....Repowered 2320 is "Underwater"

    I have an update - I bought weather resistant gasket from mcmaster carr and put 1/2" thick sticky back foam under the hinged transom door. I tried 1/8" thick going up on the sides of the door but that was too thick. In any case, it stopped the deck from getting flooded while drifting when a...

    Uh-oh....Repowered 2320 is "Underwater"

    Dale, No mods to the boat and the original was a 2 stroke Yamaha that was 100 lbs lighter. All I have mounted in the transom are two batteries and the oil reservoir. I also called Parker prior to repowering and they said that it would be no problem. The bilge is dry and I never saw it in the...

    Uh-oh....Repowered 2320 is "Underwater"

    What did I do wrong? I bought a 2320 and based on comments, decided to repower with a 250 Etec and thought it would be no problem as they are lighter than other 250's. http://www.akmining.com/boat/evinrude_outboard_11.htm With a full tank of fuel (150 gallons), the scuppers are 1/4" above the...

    Howdy - new 2320 owner

    We just bought a 2320 that was on craigslist - we had it surveyed and the worst thing was a crack in the door and undersized washers on the Yamaha 200 mount that cracked the glass. Well, I think the best way to fix the crack is to screw some polished SS or alum flat stock around the window...
