    Is my trailer set up correctly?

    Thanks fess and i agree with you but that was old pic and since have the big single yellow strap that goes across the whole boat. Plus with the boat off the trailer a bit using tie downs off the transom eyebolts creates a rather steep angle for the strap (they are not really holding the boat...

    Is my trailer set up correctly?

    Can anyone help determine if this trailer is set up properly or can use adjustment and or forward bunks/keel roller? For the past few years I never trailer-ed more than a few miles and rarely gone over 30 mph so it wasn't really a concern. We recently relocated south Fl and I'd like be able to...

    Anchor banging around in bow 23SE???????

    Anyone have a nice easy solution to stop the anchor from swinging and slamming? I been using kids life jackets and sponges wedged in there but not cutting it. I'd like a more permanent solution. Curious what everyone else does. Any ideas? Tnx

    23SE winter cover?

    Its that time again...... I was wondering if anyone knew of a cover i could get for my 23SE on a trailer so i don't have to shrink wrap it. I don't have a t-top so i was thinking one of those covers that strap around the trailer and have elastic would be nice? Any recommendations be appreciated!

    Mold growing on gear stored inside console?

    Thanx daleH! Now why wouldn't Parker put vents in a CC to keep this from happening since it is the only real storage area on the boat besides the front cooler seat.

    Water in bilge on new 23SE?

    Water in bilge on new 23SE?

    Geeze so we all have this? What do the guys who keep wet slipped do? Guess i gonna need a portable 12v pump. Yea i thought that bilge hatch is real weak and may leak. What about the console, i noticed mine is not siliconed and thus water getting underneath wonder if its leaking in there...

    16 degree deadrise vs 21 degree deadrise

    Coming from a Grady Marlin i can attest as having 2 engines and a sharp entry will help offshore. I had my grady for 9 years and putting the tabs down i was able to cruise offshore to the canyons or sharking grounds very nicely...but even a deep V or sharp entry will not be enough for a 30 or...

    Water in bilge on new 23SE?

    Hey was wondering if anyone else with a 21 or 23SE is getting water in bilge? I went on the boat 4 times and every time i check there is more water in the bilge...no drips around the thru hulls as far. Otherwise love the boat so far, great handling & fish ability. My worries about 14 degree...
