    Finally Got the Drone Up While Offshore

    Oh, it felt so good to be back on the water! I'm not longer in a Parker :cry: but... any boat is better than no boat...lol

    Finally Got the Drone Up While Offshore

    I hear you... on my way to Cape Cod, picking up the new boat. I originally planned to ride her home on the water, but that's just not happening right with this weather. I'm bringing a trailer..:(

    Finally Got the Drone Up While Offshore

    Beautiful boat, and that calm ocean... Just checked on WIndy, my prowling grounds w/10ft waves tonight..

    boaters license...

    you can get boating safety certificate without DL endorsement for non-tidal.

    boaters license...

    Thank you for correcting my statements. I did appear to have it backwards. In NJ - Boating Safety Certificate required for tidal, DL endorsement needed for non-tidal only - correct?

    Bean Bag Deck Chairs

    E-SeaRider. I have about eight of those... LOVE them.

    boaters license...

    NJ is perhaps a bit more anal... Boating safety certificate (requires a course participation and a proctored exam - that is for non-tidal waters only. For tidal/ocean, needs an endorsement on the Drivers License. USCG Auxiliary offers courses and exams, most are taught by very experienced...

    2320 SC SL w/ F225

    This one: PowerTech OFS4 - without hesitation. Ken of Prop Gods. I posted a short write-up on excellent performance of this post #63 What's the best way to make my new 2320 Parker w/F300... slower?

    Proud New 2320

    WHile I completely agree with @Mpellet on the virtues of anchor ball retrieval system, it works best in combination with windlass!

    Boat For Sale And just like that... 2021 Parker 2320 SL SC w/F300 & loaded

    @BillC sorry to hear that! I do not have full information and had various updates over the last month that were not making all kind of sense... I think they mean well, NJO, and certainly Josh Webster who was the listing agent - I would vouch for him, he is an outstanding guy and a straight...

    Boat For Sale And just like that... 2021 Parker 2320 SL SC w/F300 & loaded

    Honestly, I'm not sure what's going on with my little Parker... She's in a brokerage, very good dealer in NJ. And boy, am I happy I don't have to deal with that... - apparently they already had two consecutive contracts written which both failed one after another at financing, now they have a...

    Raising a pilot house roof

    That is an excellent point; also one of the reasons I chose the 2320 - low floor/cabin and low windage which comes in very handy in my crowded marina in Northern NJ. --

    Raising a pilot house roof

    I agree in this case switching boats might be more doable as this is not a simple project, and the boat is fairly new. If she was twenty+ in need of new electronics and a gas tank etc. - be a different story.. As an aside though, I absolutely do not see prices plummeting, albeit they will...

    Raising a pilot house roof

    That would be an expensive project! if done right, to make it structurally sound. Personally, on something like that I would probably put in larger windows as well (one area where I feel Steigers have an advantage). Or even slanted forward windshield - that would be a major improvement as far...

    Wide open throttle rpm

    It will depend on the prop... Ideally, correctly "propped" it should be hitting 5,500-6,000 at WOT. But, if we are talking 18yo engine/boat (what are the hours?), there could be a lot of additional factors.

    Atlantic City Boat Show

    I did not see any 2520 XLDs at the Edison or the AC NJ shows. All I got is this, below, so the 2520 would be somewhere in between... these boats were basic, no second helm, radar, trailer etc. and I was told those were already sold. My dealer told me there is no more 2022s in stock in NJ, they...
