just found your channel great content earned my sub, quick question on the hds fishfinder can it be coupled up to a monitor i've got a 24inch 12v tv that i don't use from a caravan...all the best scott
I am looking at a Parker Pilothouse 660 (around 2011) and it has no bench seats in the cockpit. I see yours does have a wooden bench seat that doesn't look like something that Parker supplied with your boat. It looks more like the folding wooden bench seats I had in my Arvor 215AS. Did you buy it, make it or did it come with your boat? I'd be interested in doing the same thing.
Hi Kevin firstly thanks for subscribing to the channel I appreciate that i’m not sure mine was built in 2011 and it does have two bench seats in the fold up I think you can see one in that video It came directly from Parker so I’m not sure mate I think you can have them custom-built to your requirements
Oh OK - interesting. I have to make. decision on this one quite quickly I think because these boats don't seem to hang around long. I visited the local importer recently in Littlehampton and they told me I'd struggle to get the 2011 seats now - and the newer model seats are a completely different colour (brighter white). I reckon I could make those wooden bench seats though so I was encouraged to see yours in wood. The boat I am looking at has an ancient HDS5 though and there looked to be very little space on the helm for a bigger unit. I see you've managed it though. Did you move all the original gauges? It has a 115HP engine too rather than a 150HP. Another thing that makes me a bit nervous. I have loads of questions :D :D
Lovely set up mate
I have always admired your boat Mark as a cracking fast fisher, you have a lot of technology on her as well, thanks for sharing
Fabulous Boat Mark! Interesting video, and very comprehensive instrumentation. Nice one! Stay safe & well.

Did you fit the powered windlass yourself or did yours come with that already fitted?
