Agree. Construction changes were not made until late 2022 and only on a few models. The intro of the 22 and 24 CC models was the real change. One must remember that all the complaints about rusting SS materials happened during the Parker ownership time.
What are the major differences between the 1801 and 18SE? Had a 2018 1801....good, roomy, durable boat. If you do a search you will find some of the modifications made to my 1801. Good Luck with the new boat! Also from South Jersey.
Assuming the boat is powered by Yamaha...it will not support charging lithiums. At least according to Yamaha's manual. You would think the newer models would be compatible but apparently not.
Does anyone have experience with an AGM Group 27 Starting battery? I can find a lot of AGM Deep Cycle batteries but not so many Starting batteries. Using a BEP cluster. TIA
Go with a custom fabricator, better product and only a few hundred dollars more. Mini T top below...not for everyone but wanted to make fly fishable. Done in NJ.
You should be able to "overlay" your radar over your "chart" with or without a Garmin SteadyCast. Works on my Garmin 943xsv. The SteadyCast is a nice addition as it shows the true heading of your boat while at drift/anchor/ or a speed to slow to allow the GPS to "fix" the heading of your boat.
