1. **State the problem:** Find the equation of the line parallel to $y=3x-2$ that passes through the point $(2,11)$.
2. **Recall the rule for parallel lines:** Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the given line is $3$.
3. **Use the point-slope form:** The equation of a line with slope $m$ passing through $(x_1,y_1)$ is
$$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$$
Substitute $m=3$, $x_1=2$, and $y_1=11$:
$$y - 11 = 3(x - 2)$$
4. **Simplify the equation:**
$$y - 11 = 3x - 6$$
Add $11$ to both sides:
$$y = 3x - 6 + 11$$
$$y = 3x + 5$$
5. **Final answer:** The equation of the line parallel to $y=3x-2$ passing through $(2,11)$ is
$$y = 3x + 5$$
