    Buddy heater in cab?

    I flip between Coleman and Ozark Trail (Walmart) and don't notice any different. Could be your right and reputable and disposable propane bottle products are two different things. But I have no issues with either on my heater or Weber Q grill.

    Buddy heater in cab?

    Been using a Mr. Heater in my cabin for 15 years. Single small green propane bottle sized. I put it in front of pilothouse door sometimes and other times in v-berth footwell area. I only use it when I'm in the cabin, usually underway. I have solar exhaust fan on roof. No issues here.

    1996 Parker 1800 115 Yamaha 2 stroke $8500

    I had the money in hand and the truck running to drive down from MA to buy that boat last March but you contacted seller first and scooped it up. If I was still in the market I would be coming to get it but found virtually identical boat (only Johnson 115) in June. It should sell no problem...

    Sunscreen Stains!!!!

    Yes, aerosol sunscreen leaves nasty orange stains. Usually with crisp feet outlined so you can figure out who the culprit was :-). This happens every time our son takes people out on one of our Parkers - we don't use the stuff. To get it off we simply use Clorox Cleanup, which takes most of it...

    Fuel Vent Parker Pilot House 2003 Replace?

    I just replaced the same plastic one on my 1800. I had to make hole bigger but super easy job. On my boat I can get right to the hose though. I went with the flush mount style like attached picture shows. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    WTB leaning post and livewell for 1800

    I have a 1998 1800 and I’m not in love with the reverse position seat/livewell/dock box it came with. Not sure if it’s factory. Looking for a leaning post and maybe a livewell for underneath. Here is what I am replacing. Let me know if anyone has anything for sale that might fit the bill...

    Brand new 1801 cushion set

    I’m searching for a leaning post for my 1800 and came across this on Craigslist: https://capecod.craigslist.org/bpo/d/up ... 15425.html It’s a new take off upholstery set for a 2018 1801. Does not include leaning post frame. Talked to the gentleman for a while really nice guy. Not the one I’m...

    length of control cables for 1800 center console?

    Thanks, Megabyte, for the suggestion. I called yesterday and they were very nice. They were swamped so I had to call back again today but they did get me the information and apologized for the delay. I didn’t think 24 hours was a big deal at all, especially since they were doing me a favor. They...

    length of control cables for 1800 center console?

    Does anyone happen to know how long the control cables are on a 1998 1800 Center Console? I realize I can pull them and look for the markings or measure, but if anyone knew I would order them and be able to do the swap much quicker. I tried a search but no luck. Thanks in advance.

    Is an engraved HIN a concern?

    My 1989 2520 also has engraved HIN. It's factory.

    1996 Parker 1800

    Congratulations NorthIslandFlyLT. I was number two in line to come down from MA and grab that and you beat me to it. My truck was loaded and I had a fist full of cash but I could tell from the pics that the first person to see it was gonna buy it. Beautiful boat and awesome price. Congrats!
