I had a deposit after 3 days, just took us that long to get together to finalize.

Sold

Unfortuantely its time to sell this hard to find Deep Vee Parker 2520XLD with every possible option including twin 225hp Yamahas, autopilot, seaspension seating, trolling motor with spot lock, 6 person life raft, 2nd station and so much more. This thing is a fishing machine and ready to be...

Great setup. Did you get rid of your engine gauges? Are you running them through the Simrad? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s worked out great. I’m sure the motor wouldn’t have to work as hard if it was mounted on the bow but I really like being able to launch and retrieve it easily and hear the beeps when using the remote. I also didn’t lose any space on the boat and that section of the boat doesn’t bounce like...

Got em on, I also wanted to ask your thoughts on your new Permatrims. Thanks, Dave Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I ended up raising the motors up 2 holes(still have room to go up 1 more if needed) got my running numbers and just put on 2 Powertech 4 blade props. Huge improvement in just about everything, hole shot, planning speed, top end. Sounds crazy but it’s because my Yamaha painted stainless props had...

I was thinking the same thing, but was following someone else’s parts list that was listed in a forum. I did leave enough slack in case I have to swap them out but in the meantime I have them completely coated with dielectric grease. Do you think that will help with the corrosion? Sent from...

It’s expensive but you can get a lithium ion 36 volt battery that takes up the same space as one 31 group battery and only weighs 30 lbs. They’re also supposed to charge quicker, hold a longer charge and last longer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks got em on. Did you do the motor height and props at the same time? Just curious which had a bigger effect. I’d also like to know your thoughts on the Permatrim after you’ve put her in. What size did you go with? Good luck with the launch. Dave Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Also wondering if I’d be better off adding a permatrim as opposed to changing props.

I have a 2006 2520XLD with twin Yamaha 225’s mounted on an Armstrong bracket and they are mounted in the first hole so that the motors are as deep in the water as possible. Is there anyone else with the same setup that has raised their motors? If so by how much? I’m also currently running Yamaha...
