As mentioned above, the XLD would be your deep V and XL would be your MOD V. If you can see the boat, as mentioned above, look at the # of strakes to easily determine what it is. If it is indeed a Deep V that changes everything and 250 is certainly not enough and you would be disappointed...

Yes, being a Modified V the 250hp is adequate HP for that boat. Would 300 be better, maybe, however many have bought the same boat with 225's in the past. It's not a Deep V and you should have no issues pushing that boat just fine with a 250.

I don't know if your boat has insulated storage however the new ones do (and I would assume yours is also). The following is listed on the new ones "Standard Features" on their website *** Bow Seating with Cushions and Insulated Storage Underneath

Was just reviewing some of these stringer schematics because I am looking at possibly purchasing an old 1800 boat project and noticed the following. These stringer schematics are for both the 40 & 60 gal tanks I believe. If you look closely you see there are 2 different bulkhead locations...

I think I would just remove it before I would cut it. Since you have the 3 sided enclosure for colder weather, maybe you don't need it (the windshield) at all for warmer weather. Also, if you end up selling the boat some day you can reinstall it.

The 2320 is a nice boat usually holding their value so be patient looking. Best of luck

Thats a lot of boat. Those 25' Parker CC w/9.5 beam really feel like a 28+' boat. Enjoy

What year and model boat do you have?

I know you are wanting information on the CC only but here is my experience. It really depends on what you are using it for and where you will be using it the most often. I had a 2320, which is the same hull as the 2300 DV CC. It was a really nice boat but it's strength wasn't necessarily the...

I certainly wouldn't think they would use 5200 on something like a cup holder. They probably just caulked it with some marine proof sealant or just used the sticky gaskets that comes with those cup holders (see link pictures below). Probably will come out with a little patience and force...

Hey John, I'll do my best to help however, there are many individuals here that I hope chime in with better ideas. Seating - since we can't really see what you have (other than a bench in the house), what are you looking for that you don't have now? If you are refering to inside the house, I...

I will offer my opinion on your questions as I have owned both Grady White and Parker boats. Let me start by saying both are nice boats and you will probably be more than happy with either of them. How is the ride on the 2540 dc in comparison or in general? - Basically, the 2540 is the same...

I am sorry, I still can't figure out what you are looking for however, Cecil marine is very helpful and sells quite a few parts for the Parker. You may want to try them, even if they are not showing the item on their website. Good luck, https://www.cecilmarineonline.com/hard-parts/

Reef, can you show a picture or explain what the "wing window" is? I may be having a senior moment but can't figure it out, therefore can't offer suggestions.

John, very nice looking boat. I recommend you add your location to your profile so if you post questions maybe someone in your area will respond. Pretty easy, just click your profile and put your general area under location.
