    Planning for Marine AC for 2520

    A few years ago, I embarked on trying to get AC for my 2005 Parker 2520. I am in Virginia and the family does not enjoy boating during the summer heat. We use the boat mostly during the fall striper season. I may use it a total of 20 engine hrs per year. With adding AC, I am hoping to use...

    Can anyone measure dome light on 2520?

    My dome light broke on my 2003 2520. I left the light on the boat without measuring it. Can anyone measure the diameter? I want to buy a replacement. Found some threads where folks replaced with 7 inch and another with 5.5 inch LEDs. Any help is much appreciated.

    Thinking about an autopilot

    I have a 2003 Parker 2520 with a yamaha 225 4 stroke. The electronics include a networked HDS 7 and HDS 10. I am thinking about adding an autopilot. I would use it to help steer the boat as I troll for stripers. I do not travel far from home port. Would a Raymarine EV-100 with a type .5...

    Parker livewell hose size. I have a leak!

    My incoming water line to the live well has a leak though a small hole.. Does anyone have an idea to repair it? What size is the factory hose (inner diameter)? I tried a piece of rubber patch on the hole held tight with a hose clamp without success.

    New 2520 owner

    After much dreaming about Parkers, I was able to convince the Mrs to let me get a Parker. With the advice of members here and on THT, I bought a 2003 2520 with Yamaha F225. Has less than 500 hours. I had the engine scoped and it had no signs of corrosion. I bought a new trailer to tow it on...

    2520 XL cockpit question

    I am purchasing a 2003 2520xl. There is no seating in the cockpit area. Is there enough room for two to four white vinyl padded deck chairs (wise or similar brand)?

    2003 yamaha F225 4 stroke purchase question

    I found a 2520 with a 2003 yamaha F225 4 stroke. I have read that these are prone to corrosion. I have asked the mechanic to pull the power head and check the exhaust, etc. If it comes back clean, should I still worry and walk away from the deal?

    Questions. Considering a purchase of a 2520

    I am considering buying a 2520 with a 4 stroke yamaha 225. I want to fish but need some flexibility for it to be a family boat (cruise, tubing). I have several questions: Can the 2520 pull a tube with two persons in it? What is the average cruising speed owners are getting? Top speed? Any...
