I am going to replace my Horizon 500 with the Pro Fish 700. OtherLlne....did you get the free fall? If so are you satisfied with the free fall feature? The only negative I have heard is that you need to be careful not to stop the anchor during the free fall. Commnets? Thanks, Mike 26 LC...

This appears to be a very clean 2001 Parker 2530 in Maine. The asking price is $69.9. I decided to pass on it due to the expense of trucking it here to San Diego. The contact is [email protected] if interested. I found it on YachtWorld.com.

We love livin' in California, don't we!!

Great info.....thanks guys!!!

Kevin......I just found a clean 2530 and am making an offer this week. If I get it, I will post the pix. If not that one, I will find another. The one I am looking at is on the East coast, and I will have it delivered here.

I am looking for a 2530 extended cab.. I have found a clean one and am going to make an offer this week. If I don't get that boat, I will find another. I hope to have a slip at Sunroad Marina. Yeah, I hope to get out fishing at least once a week also, but I hate it when work and home stuff...

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the info! More basic questions: ...how much paint to put a coat on the bottom of a 2530? ...how do you prep before you paint the bottom? Thanks!!

Thanks, Jeff. I appreciate it. If I get the boat, I will have a bunch of questions! Where are you fishing and how often are you getting out?

Basic questions from a newbie here........1) How often do you need to repaint the bottom (Parker 2530). (I have heard every two years.) How much (West Coast) should I budget for this? 2) What is involed and how much should I budget for typical annual maintenance on twin Yamaha 150"s with 600...

Hi Jeff......I am a newbie also... I am looking to buy my first Parker, hopefully in the next few weeks. Were you impacted by the fires? We are downtown, so all we had to deal with was the smoke and ash. Have a friend that lost a house. Bad stuff! Anyway, hope to meet you sometime.

Thanks, Dale. Great info, I appreciate it. Hey, is that a flyrod under your arm? I am a freshwater flyfisher trying to learn how in saltwater!

Hi All.....Kudos to all of you for such a great web site and online community of Parker owners and fans. I live in downtown San Diego, close to the bay. I am getting very close to becoming a new owner. I have been lurking around the site for a few days, and learned a ton. I grew up around...

I am looking to buy a clean used 2530 extended cab. Prefer outboards, but willing to consider the diesel also. I hope to find a boat here in So California. I expect to be posting soon as a Parker owner! Thanks...
