Sorry for the late reply. I'm moored in a neighborhood boating association on the west side of Bird Island. You may want to consider Britannia or Seymours. You might be able to drop a mooring off Scudder Beach as well...

Congrats! I'm in Northport Harbor and will keep an eye out for you!

I use an Anchor Shade as well but wonder if anyone has tried this option which looks like it would work... http://www.ttopcovers.com/shadekit.htm#

I treat the inside of the window frames with Woody Wax once or twice during the season. The exterior is untreated but I rinse after every use with Salt Away (use a spray bottle with the solution then hose off with fresh water.) Starting my fifth season and zero sign of any pitting on anything...

Super heavy duty custom made mooring pennants. Two 8' double-braid 3/4" pennants on stainless steel thimbles on galv. pear. Used one season. $100. Were great for my 2520XL but my mooring ball was too small to support the weight of the thimbles and pear so kept rolling over....

After too many Gull Sweeps went missing after storms I switched over to Bird Spiders. I have an 8' one mounted to a sand bag (tied off to grab rails) on the roof of my 2520. I never take it off even under way. I also have another one I often sit on the transom which keeps the rear clean. The...

This past week 150-200 bottlenose dolphins were seen cruising through LI Sound and dipping into the harbors. The video attached to this new story shows the Northport Harbor Master commenting aboard his trusty Parker... http://www.newsday.com/news/local/suffo ... 1736.story

I've always used a double pennant on my 2520 and have had no wear to pulpit or rub rail. I have been using 3/4" double braid with stainless thimbles attached to a pear ring. I found the weight of the thimbles, pear and shackle to be somewhat heavy and made my mooring ball list to side. I'm...

Well, let me rephrase. I bought a new Parker off the lot and it didn't have a 2nd station. So, having it 'factory' installed at build wasn't an option. The dealer offered the 2nd station as a dealer-installed option when I bought the boat but said the price would be the same if I instead...

I had my dealer install the bulkhead steering station on my 2520XL a year after I bought it. They did a great job and included a custom sunbrella cover that still looks brand new after 2 seasons. This is still my favorite upgrade. It cost about the same as if I had ordered it with the boat.

I recently bought and received one from this seller. He has no picture on his listing which I think hurt his bidding. I was the only bidder at $.99 and won. He has another for sale with no bidders. Great deal for whoever needs one. This goes for as much as $62 elsewhere. Stainless mounting...

Please find a craigslist link to a listing for my good friend's 27' Albin. I know some Parker fans also appreciate a nice Albin now and then.... http://longisland.craigslist.org/boa/651186862.html

My bulkhead steering station seemed a bit naked so I added a flush-mounted compass and stereo remote over the winter. Both were found on West Marine clearance tables...

I bought a tube of 'gasket grease' from a local pool supply store. It is a silicone gel that I apply to all rubber on the boat. I lubed up the rubber gasket on the cabin side windows and it really helped stop any water intrusion.

I'd love to hear from anyone who is using the Rocna or Manson Supreme style anchor. I'm looking to replace my danforth knock-off and would prefer something up on the bow roller that is less intrusive. The sharp ends of the danforth style stock always scare me that I'll scrape a hull during a...

As am I, in Centerport. We'll see you out in the Sound!

Our 2520XL is our family's third boat. Our last boat was a walkaround with flushing head, shower, sink, fridge, the works. We never used any of them. Every year I had multiple water systems to winterize and still ended up replacing pumps, hoses, etc. Two years ago we decided to simplify and...

Not sure how old your WA is but I would assume it's worth calling the Parker factory direct to see if they can sell you a replacement. At the very least they can probably point you to their supplier if they don't make them in-house...
