2320 setup

[crusty]

Bought this 2005 from the original owner with 517 hrs. It was garage kept and well cared for. I ended up removing 2 tank racks on the starboard gunnel and putting 4 on each side. It is drilled for the additional mounts so racks for 12 tanks can be put in literally in minutes.

Bonefish Boats in Odessa Fl did a great job on the pipework. The sunshade comes back about 5' from the house and they made me an additional piece of canvas(not pictured) that slides onto the outriggers to shade the cockpit back to the transom.

Thanks to Grouper Jim for giving the Permatrim a favorable review.

Added trip Optimas w/ the original Yamaha harness going directly to the start battery. Then ran an auxillary Yamaha charging cable from the reg/rec to the Mastervolt isolator then to the two house batteries.

Added a pulpit to make room for 600' of 1/2" brait and 25' of 5/16" stainless chain and tensioner. I will never go back to 3 strand for ground tackle. The brait piles nicely into an incredibly small area and is really nice on the hands.

Bonefish Boats added the nest for a 22 gal aux tank(many hours of hookah diving without gas cans in the cockpit). They also installed the Rupp outriggers. The "hoop" can be raised to make a handrail so we can stand on top of the house in calm weather at or below trolling speed. I removed the factory horn and reused the hole for the satellite radio antenna.

Here is the hoop raised. I actually had some kids who sat on the house and pulled the bar down in it's resting place like a rollercoaster ride.

Standing atop the house is fantastic for watching divers or spotting weedlines/debris while trolling.

Added an additional berth cushion to close the hole and create more storage underneath. Made sure I got one from Parker instead of having it made locally to ensure that it would match. Oh well..

 

[crusty]

Gotta love more storage.

10" Bazooka bass tube fit nicely behind the bench seat. Originally I had Boss Audio waketower style speakers but I really did not like them. Replaced them with Klipsch speakers that sound great.

Bonefish Boats created these rodholders from the original Parker rocket launchers for kitefishing duty. I installed 2 15 degree and 2 30 degree swiveling rod holders in the gunnel so that we could use bent butt rods. The rod pictured is a very reasonable $179 Daiwa with a Shimano Talica II 20 filled with 130lb Jerry Brown hollow core spectra. This is my favorite setup for bottom fishing, I simply took our swordfishing tactics and downsized everything except the braid.

Wow!!

We need to talk. I am having a survey done tomorrow on a 2320 and if all goes well I will have her home shortly!

I am also a diver and would be interested in the tank racks, shade, and the speaker setup. Great job!
