    Reupholster & New Cushions

    I got a quote today to reupholster the coming pads and the seat / backrest in front of my center console. Additionally, make 2 cushions to go on the bow area raised platforms on my 23DV. The quote was $3,000. Is it just me or does this seem excessive?

    Transom Damage

    Sunday morning I picked my boat up from my dry slip at my marina. I had them put the boat in the water overnight Friday night as I knew I was going to take the boat out before they opened (6:00am). I pull the boat in January to do the annual engine maintenance and get it detailed. Once I had the...

    Boat Brokers

    I getting closer and closer to the decision on whether to keep my boat or sell it and move up in size. My question is what's everyone's opinion on using a broker to sell it. I know I'll have to pay them a decent fee but my boat is two hours away at the coast and my current train of thought is it...

    Yamaha Command Link Multi-Hub Assembly

    When I had the NMEA 2000 network installed in my boat I had to make the decision to disconnect either my speedometer or tachometer from the Yamaha Multi-Hub because of the number of ports required for the NMEA. I want to add a second multi-port assembly and connect it back to the original to...

    23DV Helm Dimensions

    I have what I know is a strange question. I want to order a helm pad for my 2015 2300DV but I do not know what the distance is between the center console and the baitwell that the leaning post is mounted to. I can't measure it because my boat is two hours away. I just thought I would ask if...

    23DV Updates

    Had some unexpected surgery a couple of weeks ago so I figured now would be a great time to do some upgrades on the boat since I’ll be out of commission for a few weeks. The first thing that I wanted to do was to get rid of the factory captains chairs and have a leaning post built & installed...

    Parts For Sale Parker Captains Chairs For Sale

    I just removed two Parkers Captains Chairs with the leaning post swivel up cushions and pedestals off my boat. I'd like to sell them (reasonably locally) as I think they would be a bear to ship. I'm honestly not sure what to ask for them. I'd be willing to accept something reasonable for them.

    North Carolina Parker Owners

    I messaged member Andy earlier and we were discussing a possible meet up for all Parker owners on the forum that live in North Carolina (the home of Parker). Not sure if we should try to meet up with our boats or just drive to a central location. I wanted to float this idea out and determine the...

    Jabsco Rule Pump

    A while back my Jabsco Rule Marine Tournament Series 1100 bait-well/raw water wash down pump went bad. I ordered the replacement cartridge and it works fine as far as pumping water. My problem is that anytime I’m in rough water it pops out of it’s housing. Just yesterday as I was heading back in...

    The End of the 2300DV?

    I heard from a new 2300DV Parker owner today that Parker is going to stop building that hull. He picked his boat up in Florida and said the dealer told him this. Has anyone else heard this?

    Any tips/tricks to pulling trolling motor power supply wires down the fuel fill chase into the center console area on a 2300DV?

    Free Anchor Pulpit

    Pulled my anchor pulpit off my 2300dv in preparation for the trolling motor install. I don’t see needing this in the future so I’m offering it up for free (pick up only) if someone wants it. I’ll be glad to ship it if the person who wants it pays the shipping. It is surprisingly heavy.

    Trolling Motor Add

    Pulled the trigger today on the 84” 36 volt Rhodan trolling motor and Ionic 36 volt lithium ion battery for my 2300dv. I got lucky and found a high volume dealer that said he should be able to get the motor in about 5 weeks. I plan to photo the install and write it up for Classic Parker and will...

    Electrical Question

    So a few weeks back I had rough trip which resulted in quite a bit of sea water entering the bilge. A couple of weeks after this outing I noticed that when I turned my battery switch off I heard an “electrical pumping” sound from my vhf. I then noticed that when I turned my battery switch off...

    Cleaning the backs of captains chairs

    My 2300DV has the “plastic” frame captains chairs mounted on top of the baitwell. What have you found to clean them?
