A quick follow up: I let the boat sit in the slip a couple of days with the 1/4" tube installed and went back to see if anymore water/fuel had leached toward the stern. Yes, I got 1 more quart of mostly Gas. This was much stronger smelling than any of the first 5 1/2 gallons I had previously...

Thanks for the reply. Yes I was concerned about that. Here's what I decided to do - It was not easy but I hope this helps someone else on the forum: You will need to remove the deck plate to get the most work space possible. There is only 3/4" between the rear of the fuel tank and the bulkhead...

Hello All, I recently replaced my fuel sending unit due to a crack and leak around the seal. However, some fuel and water was able to leak off the top of the tank and down the backside into the foam and sealed fuel tank compartment. Today we shot some video through the rear deck plate while...

Hi Marty, Sorry for the late response - been fishing like crazy this year. Many Bluefin, some over 200 lbs. To answer your question: I left my motor in the 3rd hole from the top. I did not go that extra hole to full height. Rough seas would have caused the prop to blow out. I think it is in...

My 2007 2310 has a Max HP rating of 300.

- It really has to be the exact same boat and configuration for an accurate comparison. I was hoping to get lucky and find someone who tried it. There is a dramatic difference between these boats, even between the same model. Eg. With Bracket Vs. No Bracket - HP, Prop, Bait Tank, etc. Anyone...

Hello All, It's almost time for a service and I may want to tweak the motor a little more - but first I want know.... - Has anyone raised the motor all the way ?? What can I expect ?? Most of you have seen my mods: http://www.classicparker.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=15993 2007 2310 DV...

Here is an update on removal: One of the guys on my dock is an Auto Glazer- been doing it for 30 years - He installs lots of windshields. He gave me a can of Quick Release Agent, a combination of mineral spirits and isopropyl alcohol. -Says to spray it on and wait a couple of minutes and it...

Today I spent about 3 hours digging out about 1/3 of the job. After digging out the main portion of silicone, I would then soak a rag in Mineral Spirits and push it down into the seam with a puddy knife and let it sit for 5 minutes to soften the remaining layer. After 5 minutes its back to...

The Caulk Seams on the Deck of my 07- 2310 have gotten ratty after many seasons of fishing/washing. Its time to remove, clean, and replace what appears to be silicone caulk use from the factory. I am able to dig out most of it with a scraper - but was wondering what to use for the last bits of...

I completed this install a couple of weeks ago and want to update others about the outcome. -I believe it is important to other Parker Owners to have accurate information to reference, and this site and its members have been good to me - so here goes. My boat is a 2007 2310 DV with F250 Yamaha...

The 4 Blade Mercury Rev 4 will allow the boat to hold plane at a much lower speed.

Believe it or not that transducer should work, but might not give the best sonar readings. I have used that method on my Kayak (Shoot through the Hull) 1/4" Polypropylene on my Hobie Revolution. I have used transom mount transducers (epoxied inside the hull of my kayak for years) Lowrance HDS...

Hi Ryan, Did you center the actuator, or offset the trim tab on your installation ? I have a haulout planned in 2 weeks and am trying to gather all the info I can for the install. -Can you give me the Part #s for the 12 x 18 Tab Plates ? Thanks Bill

How did you repair the hole from the original transducer install? It looked like it was going to take a lot of work.

Its a damn shame that many "so called professionals" can't do a proper install to save their lives. -Since my install problem I have discovered a wealth of transducer information on where to mount it. The closer to the keel you locate the transducer the better. On the Keel is the "Best...

Heres an update. Yesterday I spoke with Eric Denton at Parker. I told him about the problem I was having with the transducer in its present location. -I asked him where to mount a flush mount TD on my hull (2310 DV). He said the factory mounts them 6 - 8" off the keel with the tilted element...

Thanks for you help. We will get this sorted out with a little help from our Classic Parker friends, so anyone who does an install in the future has a better experience. It will probably require me to buy another transducer, and do another install. I just spoke to Brian at BOE, and he was...

Do you have any pics of the underside of your hull where the transducer is mounted ? -I think you have a modified Vee, so you may not have that chine forward of the transducer mounting location. Also, from the looks of your mounting location your transducer would be much lower down the dead rise...

The yard is being a dick about it. The Marine Engineer was touting his vast experience in the marine industry, but had a yard worker with little to No experience do the actual install. -I had to make them adjust the transducer to the correct - Towards Keel Orientation...
