Excited to be a new Grady owner! Took delivery of a 2005 282 sailfish a week ago, and I've begun the needed tlc to bring her up to par...need some help finding the right rubber / weather strip seal to use on the drawers, cabinet, livewell and cooler doors. Here's a picture of current seal I am trying to replace throughout..
Thoughts?

Anyone ever replace these seals? Does everyone only use grady parts from the dealer?

Hi - good luck with the 282. I have a 2004 that was just repowered with F250 Yamahas this past week. The repower was due to the infamous exhaust corrosion in the 2002-2005 engines. If yours has not been inspected it might be a good time to do it.
I never had to replace those seals but are they damaged so they can't be silicone back in place? I generally try to keep my boat close to original specs especially when replacing anything that is stainless in on the boat. GW uses high grade stainless 316L that holds up to the environment well. Pumps I usually try to stay with the same brand/ models so that the original mounting holes are reused.
The Sailfish is a great boat that I'm sure you will love!
