    Electrical Circuit Breakers - 23230

    I had a similar issue when i upgraded to a bigger pump. Just install a relay by the pump with its own inline breaker connecting the pump and relay directly to the battery. run your dash switch wire to the switch side of the relay. That will fix the problem for you...

    West Coast 2320

    The motor is mounted in number 1. Swells in the first 3 minutes were 4-7 at 10 seconds with 1 to 2 ft wind chop. After the 3:30 minute mark when i was on the bar swells were 4-8 and 2 to 3 ft wind chop. the difference is the current was ebbing at 2.5 kts in that narrow shallow channel so that...

    2320 Questions

    I have a 2006 2320. The highest point on the boat are my rocket launchers. My radar bolts flush to the roof part that hangs over the window. That being said I get my boat under a 10ft garage door. I do have to unhook from my regular stinger and put a 8-10 inch drop stinger on to get that last...

    West coast bow rail height

    The rail height hits me the same as the gunnels in the cockpit. Feels really safe up there.

    Drift stability of 21/23 ft DV Parkers??

    2320 with 5 guys in 1-8ft seas 2-4 guys on one side no problem. When the 5th gets there it heels over pretty good but will not roll over. Boat has a awesome drift that is very predictable at least for what we do on the west coast live bait longfin fishing

    Lack of baitwell on 2320

    You can always get a deck mount tank like we use on the west coast. I have a 55 gallon tank and when its not being used for live bait i store my bumpers in it and I have a lid that goes over it so it also becomes a rigging station and a place to toss gear when you take it off, place for lunch...

    Help with Radar Install 2320 Pilothouse - Folding Mount

    I had the same problem except my rocket launchers were even and inch to high. bought a 10 or 12 inch drop stinger and now unhook switch stingers and back in with an inch of clearance. less hassle than rigging up a foldeing radar.

    Another hypothetical question, hull, motor, weight

    Yes i like the permatrim I think it turns the bow down faster coming over the top of a swell than the tabs for a smoother ride at faster speeds and better fuel economy. tabs are just used to balance the boat in those cases. When it becomes a washing machine then i start using the trim and tabs...

    Another hypothetical question, hull, motor, weight

    Scott with a 250 and a really heavy load where your total weight all in is around 8400 lbs I bet you see 1 - 1.4 heading into nasty chop or swell and 1.6-1.8 riding with the swell. The heaviest my 2320 with a 250 has been was about this weight which is about 1300lbs over the capacity plate...

    let me rephrase this

    My numbers match jims 2.2 loaded to 2.8 really light. Ill add 1.8 if boat is heavy and its very rough

    Parker 2320 fuel tank size changed

    Noticed on the Parker site the 2320 tank is only 137 gallons now instead of 150. Any speculation on what caused this change? I sure love the 150 gallon tank in mine.

    Ray Marine

    Raymarine is a lot better now that FLIR took over. I put a C127 12 inch in my 2320 and it is great. The internal GPS will aquire sattelites through my pilot house and the roof of my garage. The 127 also has the built in sonar module which works as well as the DSM 300 on my C70 the detail is...

    2320 and 2520 fuel burn questions

    Stacy it was a looong day that we pushed until almost dark hoping for that late afternoon bite with 1 fish to show for our efforts. Only saw 4 other boats out there and i knew 3 of them - everyone had a tough day. jsol the 2320 is an awesome boat that fishes like a much bigger boat since its a...

    2320 and 2520 fuel burn questions

    06 2320 yami 250 with 12x24 tabs, perma trim, rev 4 17p prop. full of fuel and 2 - 3 guys 2.4 mpg 4700 rpm at 29mph in perfect conditions = 1-2 ft wind chop. If i have to buck 3-5 ft wind waves with a little trim then 18 -22 mph at 2 - 2.2 mpg rpm doesn't seem to matter. worst case - If...

    Cracking deck on 2520

    I actually had two cracks form in a similiar spots on my 2006 2320 almost like mirrors of each other. When I ground it all out what i found was NOT rotten deck but 1.5 - 2 inch holes in the plywood that were used to spray floatation foam in. The holes were never plugged with a wood core or even...

    Bait tank tabletop

    I built one out of starboard and just used a couple pieces of treated 4x4 wood blocks screwed to the bottom for weight and friction to hold it there. I remove it totally if I need to fill the tank with bait otherwise I store my fenders and lines in there. My next project is going to be a filet...
