    Plastic Fuel vent cover

    Has anyone seen any of the fuel vent covers made of starboard for sale anywhere. I though Cecil marine had them at one point but I'm not seeing them now. I'm not having issues with water getting in, but mine is cracked and I'd rather just replace this thing than upgrade the whole vent fitting...

    Washdown pump quick connect fitting leaking

    Anyone else had trouble with the quick connect fittings on a washdown pump? I have a jabsco that I think is not even the high pressure one but it has a spray coming from the quick connect on the pump outlet side. The o-ring is on the fitting and the retainer clip clicks into place with no issue...

    Steering stops at center when turning wheel

    While I'm steering, my motors stop at the center when turning slowly but will continue if I give it a hard push. I thought I just had an issue with low fluid or or a bubble but purged and filled yesterday. If I turn the wheel quickly it's working great, but if I turn it slowly the motors will...

    Cabin storage

    Just wanted to post a cheap storage idea. The dash is a great spot to stash phone etc but I had some other small items I wanted to leave on the boat. I found this car seat back organizer while looking to add some storage in my jeep. But it measured up to the same width of the side wall panel of...

    Inactive - NOT MY BOAT - 2530 for sale

    This is not my boat but thought members might like to see a 2530 for sale for what seems like a pretty good price. And the broker selling it thinks it's a 2520 so you can go into negotiations knowing that you're dealing with someone that maybe doesn't know what they have. 2006 hull with 2015...

    Wiring for dual voltmeters

    I'd like to get two voltmeters so I can have one for each battery. As far as I can tell, my yamaha gauges can't tell one battery from the other, just that there's a power supply that I control from the bilge 1/2/combined battery switches. Anyone have any examples of how they've approached this...

    This a seacock or ball valve? And how to replace based on pics?

    The thru hull that supplies raw water to the head is having issues. It turn freely about half way then gets stuck as it gets closer to full open position. I expected it was a ball valve but I don’t see where it would thread onto the base. And now that I’m looking closer at the pics I’m seeing...

    Wood in Transom

    I’ve read that the transom in Parkers have wood throughout. I’m curious if the area around the drain plug is just fiberglass? Looking at the plug from within the bilge on the 2820, the area surround the plug is not as think within about 4” of the plug. Is this part 100% fiberglass? I’m mounting...

    Good Raw water washdown pump replacement?

    What are the specs on the factory raw water pump? And for a replacement, would you use the same again or go for more gpm? My pump is thoroughly dead and unrecognizable due to corrosion (see pic for comic value). I have a separate baitwell pump so this is for dedicated washdown but I do need...

    What's better for 2820: Twin 150 or 300/350 duoprop?

    I have a 2820 that either needs a lot of work on the twin Yamaha 250's or a new power set up. I don't have far to get to my spots and I don't need to get there at 50mph so I've been interested in the twin 150 setups I've heard about in this thread 150s on a 28? A lot of folks want max HP in...

    2006 F250 Wiring Repair Question

    The joys of project boats... I have a set of F250's that sat for a few years that I'm trying to do minimal repairs until I figure out if they're any good. At some point the cowls were left off long enough for a mouse to get in one and nibble some wires but it doesn't look like he was in there...

    Bow Rail Stainless or Aluminum? And source for 1 1/4" rail fittings?

    Does anyone know if the bow rail on a 2006 2820 would be stainless or alumninum? The front of mine near the pulpit has a damaged section I plan to cut out and replace with something a little taller. It seems like stainless based on how hard it is to cut with a hacksaw but I don't want to order...

    Bow rail stainless or aluminum?

    Does anyone know for sure if the bow rail is stainless or aluminum? Or were they available in both? This is on a 2006 2820. 1 1/4" diameter rail. I tried the "magnet test" and did not notice any attraction between the magnet and the rail. But I also started to cut a section with a hack saw and...
