    New to me 1801

    I keep my 1801 on the Magothy but trailer where the fish are. Throw a set of tabs on it and the bay chop is fine. I've had a trolling motor on mine for about 8 years and wouldn't be without it. It's a Minn Kota terrova 24v 80lb w/60" shaft which was longest shaft available at the time. It...

    21 se T Top

    At the behest of my dermatologist (and my desire to have her stop carving stuff off of me each year), I put a FishMaster T-top on my 1801. It's only disconcerting when the winds are over 15 on a hull narrower than yours. My only regret is not getting a real T-top fabricated for my boat...

    Removing Bow rail from 1801 - temporarily plugging holes

    First I applied a thin coat of epoxy to hole edges and let it dry. I then used stainless fender and neoprene washers on topside and underneath washboards. I checked one last year and no problems after 5 years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Trolling motor on 1801 advice

    I have a Minn Kota I-pilot (60” shaft) on quick disconnect bracket with batteries (and charger) in the console. I used 6 ga wire from batteries to Battery Tender trolling motor plug. (This is best TM plug I’ve ever used.) Whether you pick MK, Motor Guide or Rhodan, 24V and 60” shaft with an...

    18 parker t top leaning post

    Despite our resident Oscar, poopooing, with a little bit of blue Loctite, I’ve been very happy with my addition of a FishMaster T-top. I have 4 rod holders, an antennae mount, and light mount bolted/clamped on for almost three years without any follow up tightening of bolts. My...

    2004 Parker 1801 Leaning Post Question

    I have the same leaning post in my 1801 and it's aftermarket. It's a Neptune II (due to tackle storage under seat).. I can't remember who the manufacturer is. I also have the backrest which slides into the outer two rod holders. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Console Set up and Simrad likes/dislikes

    I'm on the other side of the bay bridge and have two HDS7 Gen2 on my 1801 w/transom mount transducer and structure scan. One unit is always showing split screen of sonar and downscan and the other has map and sidescan. Off topic, but FWIW, I find it amazing the number of folks who don't use...

    I have a minn Kota 80lb riptide with i pilot on my 1801. - The spot lock will hold you at CBBT. - I've never worried about damaging the motor beating into a head sea. - I've only pulled the TM off the boat when staying at hotels on fishing trips to help keep honest people honest. - I...
