pelagic, I think you are right. I have an outstanding mechanic that comes to the house or slip. I can tell you getting old is no joke! Thanks again. Tiger 3

pelagic 2530 Thank you. I want to install a mast light on top of my T top. The boat is a 2018 1801 cc. The wire is in from the T top to the console. All I have to do is connect the wire to the running light switch. I took the four screws out holding the switch panel and there is no slack in...

High everyone, it's been a long time since I have posted. (two Parkers ago). I picked up a 2018 1801. I want to add some electrical accessories. Question is: what is the easiest, most practical way to get to the back of the switch panel to wire the accessory switches. Do the switch's come...

Capt. Paul, Sorry you had to go through the installation just to find out what a piece of junk the 450 is. I just got mine back from the service center. $ 177.00 in repairs. I spoke to Powerwinch in Colorado. No help. I don't know how they can continue to sell this unit. I thought I was...

Capt. Paul, Not to break em. But, I have a 450 on my 21 PH. Nothing but trouble. Had to go back to the service center three times right out of the box. Now when I hit the up switch the rode comes in but as soon as I release the switch the rode goes back out. Oh, also now the unit won't free...

Reely Nauti, Whren I set and retrive I follow the instructions as per the Powerwinch manual that came with the winch. The person at the Powerwinch service center said there was a problen with this model winch at the time of manufacture. Something to do with washers not doing what they shouldd...

I have a Powerwinch 450 on my 2120SC. The winch is three years old and has been a problem from day one. The person who installed the winch did an excellent job. Shortly after the installation the winch would not retrive. I had to take it off and take it to the Powerwinch repair center in my...

Dale, Thanks for the come back. When you say " compass power leads " you mean for the light ,right. I was thinking about trying the lead shield. I have plenty of sheet lead. thanks again, Bob

I had a flowscan installed in my 2120 sc. It was installed to colse to the compass and now it is affecting the compass. Is there anything that I can do short of removing the flowscan. ie: some type of a shield around one or the other/ I really don't want a 2" hole in the dash. thanks for any...

Dale, That is exactly my point. With the quality product Parker turns out it is not consistant that they would not demand a good quality ( 316) from their suppliers. you are right about lesser grades of SS. I experienced this buying at a big box store. I have to disagree, all stainless...

I have a 2004 2120 SC and really like everything about the boat, except that most of the screws arounf the window frames, all the compass screws and the bolts inside the cabin that hold the outside grab rails have rusted. They all have to be replaced. I would think that Parker would use a...

Dale, Thanks for your reply. You were correct just needed to be topped off. Thanks again, Bob

The other day when I pulled my boat out of the slip, to my surprise, I had no steering. I have a 21sc with Sea Star steering. After turning the wheel back and forth the steering started to respond. When I turned the wheel clockwise there was no noise but when I turned the wheel counter...

B-faithful I have the 21 Parker. Hope to see you in Nov.

B-FAITHFUL I saw your father just a little while ago working on a light. He is about 4 slips down from me. A great boat you could eat off the floor. Oh, and by the way a great dad, too
