    what do you think a fair price is

    Hey guys/gals, i am finally going to sell my 2510 deep vee with hpdi 200s. It is hard to price it up as there are never many on the market. And i find those on the market priced a bit high to move. I do not want this boat to sit idle any longer. It is perfectly maintained but shows like a...

    SIPHONING FUEL

    Yep, it's that time of year here. A couple years ago i did the fuel pump method of getting a bit of gas out of my tank. This year I wan to stick a hose thru the filler neck/hose, use a primer ball and suck out like 20 gallons. Does any body know if Parker put some obstruction somewhere in...

    sink drain

    I have a 2002 2510 I have owned since new. It has served me well. But, i am having a super difficult time locating a part for the sink drain. The boat has the galley package. The sink and drain had to be replaced. I can not find the piece that was originally equipped on the boat the...

    FUEL PUMP FUSE

    Good day, Not a Parker issue but....'02 z200txra hpdi continues to blow the 20 amp fuse that runs the fuel pump. The boat will run for 12 or so minutes before the fuse blows. I replaced the entire vst can with a spare I had, then replaced that fuel pump. Not the culprit. some fuel relay...

    twins w/out counter rotation

    Well, the day has come when I need to replace a counter rotating lower unit on a hpdi 200. I have talked with a few mechanics, and done the appropriate web searching, to get the skinny on running twins without opposing rotation. some say with hydraulic steering it's not an issue, other say...

    new deep vee 23 and 25

    No, I do not have any inside info but was wondering.... Personally I do not/did not see the "need" for Parker to build a 34. Obviously they did. I have a dv 2510 that I fish the heck out of. Wouldn't a smoother riding 23 and 25 seem to make more sense than a 34 pilot house? A deeper vee...

    boat leveler co tab swithc

    Good day, I need some thoughts. Boat Leveler Co. was the supplier for Parker, at one time, for the tabs. The switch had a soft, urethane cover that kept the switch water tight. The switch cover has ripped, 7 years, and the part is no longer available. BLC supplied me with the new water...

    mounting inside the factory electronics box

    2510 w/ hardtop and electronics box. The electronics box really is inadequate, imo, in terms of size. My JRC radome got crushed by a falling tree and of course is not available. The new furuno screen and bracket does not fit in the box, where the old screen was mounted, it is too tall. I do...

    kudos to Parker Marine

    I have a fuel filling issue with my 2002 that without "surgery" I do not think can be fixed. It is apparent that the fuel fill hose actually dips below the fill in the tank thus creating an "S trap" ( unfortunately chit happens ). It's not a matter of venting or rerouting, been there, done...

    upper Chesapeake in December

    Forgive the ignorance.... Typically, what's happening in the upper Chesapeake during the first week in December? A business trip in Chestertown is planned and I was going to spend a day fishing after work. Anything worthwhile? Thanks Art

    The first overnighting trip

    As many of you recall, back in August I asked for some suggestions about how to make my families first overnighting trip a good one. Thanks to all for your responses. We spent 3 full days , 2 nights on Cuttyhunk Island. We had an awesome time, highly recommend a trip there. Peaceful...

    overnighting

    The family is going to try overnighting, actually 3 nights probably, next week. Going to Cuttyhunk and Menemsha. My wife has been on me to go campming, which we do not do, so I convinced her to use the boat as the tent. I've been compiling a list of ideas and needs for the few days and am...

    I'm lovin' the Parker!

    Went out last night, a real 6-8 swell with 2-3 chop on top, 16-20 knots SSW. The first I've ever seen chop, 3' chop, on top of swell, kinda like a staircase, pretty cool. After a few tips from another 2510 owner on how to improve the ride, " why don't you try slowin' down " and playing with...

    help diagnosing 200 hpdi problem

    I have twin 2002 200 hpdi on a parker 2510. The port motor seems to be loading up. As I plow through the waves the engine cuts out/sputters when I come off of or plow into a wave or chop. Say I'm cruising @ 3800 as I was tonight. Seas 3' and sloppy the port momentarily drops to 2200, 2400, 2000...

    Am I the only one?

    It is a rhetorical question. I can not find the time to make any headway on my boat to-do list. I have my transducer in a box, sitting on the shelves are: new fuses in the pakages, new light bulbs, spark plugs, 10 micron filters w/ new ss filter housings, new 45 gallon bait tank, pirahna bait...

    the redesigned 2510

    Just gave a quick look at the redesigned 2510. The boat has a more modern appearance due to the flow of the side windows, They are now rounded instead of angular and the frame is color matched to the gel coat. Two other major changes I noticed, two minor changess. Major: A transom design...
