Due to unfortunate health issues I am putting up my boat for sale. Below is a brief synopsis of the boat. If you use the search engine, a complete pictorial of the boat building is shown. 2007 Steiger Craft Miami 2007 Suzuki with 130 hours. All service and maintenance is documented in a log...

Looking for a source for maintenance parts for a 4.2 Merc Cruiser Diesel. Filters, impellers etc. Any one have a supplier in mind? Had been using a dealer in New Jersey and now his prices have gone through the roof. Example, raw water pump impeller is now $80.00. Ouch Thanks Tom

After looking at the boat in the backyard this morning, I decided to take a ride and look at the beautiful area that we hold to so dearly here in New York. This is the entrance to Gull Pond where I keep the boat docked in Greenport. This is the town ramp inside Gull Pond This is the...

Jim at BOE has a one day sale on the Garmin 3210 bundles for $1479.00. Great price and a great unit. Just passing this along to all the people on the site. Tom

582L's are hard to find in good working order and along with appearance. Why not just go far a new Furuno 600 watt machine.? I am sure that Jim at BOE can give you a good price. Tom

http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/enav/AIS/AISFAQ.htm Has anyone looked into these units? Might be a good alternative to radar. Worst Marine is showing 3 units. Tom

Not a bad price if you want to put 5 pound of electronics in a 3 pound bag. I myself prefer individaul components. Radar, GPS and Fish Finder. This way if one should fail (GPS Radar) you still have some sort of backup for navigation. Imagine a single main unit going down when in heavy rain or...

I have access to Yamaha ring free. The amount is equal to 500 gallons of gas. Doe's anyone feel that this is acceptable product to use? The ring free is for lack of a better word free. Or should I just stick with the Suzuki additives? Thanks Tom

Looking for feed back on a custom made witer boat cover from Fisher. The product looks to be of good quality and they say that with normal maintenance it should last 8 to 10 years. Getting tired of paying for shrink wrapping in the fall only to throw it away in the spring. I do not want to get...

Gentlemen, The owner of the house where I dock my boat has a 2002 model 2510 Diesel I/O. The problem is that the original windshield is too short in height. From what I understand, the newer models have a taller one. Is this something that can be a direct bolt on from Parker, or would a custom...

For your consideration, I have a Furuno FCV 582L fish finder for sale. The unit will come with the yoke mount and power cord only. Originally mounted on a 2002 2510 Parker and was removed this spring for a FCV 585. This is guaranteed not to be DOA. Asking price is $400.00 or best offer. Tom...

I am surprised that you have not commented on my last post about garboard drains. With that I guess that you have no thru hull fittings that could down your boat whether with or without a valve. Let alone a thru hull transducer. I was merely offering different options on what is available to...

Looking for some info on breaking in a new 225 Suzuki. The owners manual is very vague on how best to do it. I realize that running WOT is not recommended, but what ranges of RPM's would be best. Changing engine speed often is mentioned but should I run it on the high side more than low or vice...

Ordered the 23 Miami a few weeks ago ans as promised attached is some boat porn of the build so far. Originally I was going to power with a 5.7 Mercruiser Mag Horizon. After speaking with Al Steiger and sea trialing one with a 225 Suzuki, I change my mind. The Zuke rode out effortlessy and was...

The boat is equipped with a 4.2 D-Tronic Diesel with a Bravo 3 Outdrive. The existing batteries are mounted on either side of the engine on platforms under the hatch. They are a PITA to remove in the fall and reinstall in the spring. :evil: :evil: :evil: They have to be turned end on end to...

Finally got around to shooting some pics of the 25 Parker at the dock where I keep the Mako. I'm new at the pic posting so here goes. I am quite sure that all of the members here love boat porn as much as I. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Question for the Gurus, 2002 2510 with the 4.2 D Tronic diesel coupled to a Bravo 3 out drive. Is there a better way to sound proof the engine box? The original insullation is for from sound deadening. The material is about one inch thick and given the ehgine size there is not a lot of room to...

The owner of the house where I dock my boat has a 2002 parker with the diesel I/O package and a Bravo 3 out drive. It is the 25' walkaround model. Two years ago the temp was running high and he was told that there was barnacle and snail growth in the 5/8 ID hose in the drive assembly along...

Hello to all. Great site that you have put together with tremendous knowledge. I also belong to Classic Mako and was lured here by Megabyte. The house where I dock my boat, the owner has a 2002 25' walk around with the diesel I/O option and what a great riding boat. I am going to post a...
