First let me say I am very pleased with my 2004 23 SE with Yamaha 224 FS with 1900 hours. It is wide open and has caught a ton of fish all along the east coast. It is very stabile in rips or big waves. I fish on a number of other boats one of which is a deep vee with a V8 350 HP Yammy and...

My 23 SE has great electronics and needed rod holders and other stuff that help in navigation and fishing, but I like to keep things off the deck if possible when fly fishing or even running. Other than the needed stuff, it is pretty plain. Thought you guys may enjoy seeing a 23 SE that is so...

A bud of mine has an older 21 SE that has no Parker Logo or pin stripe on the sides. I know we are all proud of our Parkers--in fact I have a Parker decal on the back of my Suburban. This boat looks very neat and sharp with no decals. I buff and polish my 23 SE often and lightly go over the...

Sorry now I shared this event with fellow Parker owners.

A number of guys have asked about fly rod holders for center consoles. I do use I-Fly vertical holders and fly rods will fit in my vertical spinning rod holders, but it is nice not having fly rods sticking up vertically. I designed and made these three years ago when I purchased my 23 SE. They...

In both my 21 SE and my 23 SE I have had times when putting stuff in my console either by me or a buddy has loosened the spade clips either on the back of the circuit breaker panel or the fuse block. The most recent time was up at Montauk, and I only noticed it when I was ready to return to the...

My 2004 SE has 800 hours on it and has been perfect. There is nothing I have had to fix or ask the dealer to fix. The boat is towed long distances and of course the F225 is a heavy motor. I tow with the motor tilted just high enough to clear the bottom of the boat, not straight out. Withing six...

My 2004 F225 has 600 hours on it now and just purrs. I wonder how many hours we can expect before a major overhaul is needed. I have heard stories about the CG running Hondas for 5000 or 6000 hours but do not have any first hand information. I am not going to mess around with mine. When it...

The format of this board is really nice. I also liked the original Parker Marine board and was disappointed when it folded. I did not read it every day and missed the dust up that caused the problem. I liked the fact that Robin Parker was able provide answers to questions that the average Parker...

Glad to see this now Parker forum. I have owned three new Parkers and currently run a 23 SE with F225. I find it the perfect boat for chasing stripers, blues and albies up and down the coast. It is not too much to tow long distances but handles all the water I want to fish in. Look forward to...
