What year and model? My "extra" switch (labeled "ACC") goes to a bundle of wires attached the transom (in the bilge). I'm assuming it was for a live well which I never added (yet). 1999 2520

I paid $5-6k a few years ago. 2520 free standing station. Suzuki digital controls.

Oh my

Let us know how you make out.

Correct. They cut the glass off to expose the wood. Put a heat lamp or halogen work lamp in there and dried it out. reglassed then gel coated. Judging by your pics, mine was worse than that. The entire edge split open, maybe 6-8" up from the bottom of the bilge to the floor.

Any decent fiberglass shop can fix that very easily. If I remember correctly, my cost was less than $2,000 and that included them doing the other stringer in the same location at my request (just in case). I forget the year, but it has to be close to 20 years ago now and it's still fine and I...

I think that would be me.

I'm running two C-10's (which are the same gauge). I know the majority of people hate them due to reliability issues but mine have been fine. 600 hrs, fourth season. Mine are inside a pilothouse and not exposed to the elements, maybe that's why?

Any pics?

Yes, he does.

I started with a 3X16X18.5 water grip and ended up with a 3X16X17 water grip. BUT I'm a MV, John's a DV. curious to see how this ends up.

What year is that hull? Looks mint condition but a "classic" hull.

I noticed it also when I repowered my 2520 with a DF300 (transom mount). When I first noticed it, I thought, man that doesn't sound right (the motor), then I'd have someone take the wheel while I stepped out on deck to find the noise was only in the cabin. If I crack a window, it seems to go away.

It does start to "blow out" in sharp turns if I don't throttle back. My hull is a 1999 MV, at some point shortly thereafter, Parker started making changes to the transom cut out depth. I have a buddy with a 2001 MV transom mount 300 Yam and he has a 30" lower. Never had a problem in a...

I have a transom mount Zuke DF300 that's a 25" lower.
