Anyone know of or had any experience with a good mechanic in Morehead City area? Looking for one that is well experienced with the HPDI motors to help trouble shoot issue I am having with one of my motors that is shaking too much. I have tried a lot of variables and just can't seem to find the...

Folks, I had a bad case of dock rash last weekend and have to do a gelcoat repair and also repair a section of the blue stripe on the side. I have been searching for the striping, but seems some of the former sources have since dried up. I can spray paint the stripe which I have done before and...

Anyone else not getting notified via email when someone posts on a watched thread? I used to get them all the time, but in last few weeks not getting any. Have checked my settings and spam folder and not seeing anything coming in.

Anyone every had a new pipe build for their hardtop? Not sure if I would call it a tower, but the existing factory aluminum pipe keeps getting cracked and I have had several weld jobs done and re-inforcements/gussets installed as well as additional stress pipes installed over last few years. I...

Hi folks, was just replacing some of the Euro design Green LED switches I finally found a source for, and in doing so, and guess it is cold enough pulling on the wires, a couple of my ETA 1658 breakers broke off at the threads. Any idea of good source for these? I did find them online, but...

One of the Winter projects....just getting started....Not bad for a 1991 Grady! :)

Hey folks, we have been talking about our pulpits and anchor retrieval issues over time in many posts. I think I am ready to make an upgrade to my fitup. As we know/have learned, the original pulpit anchor roller is very narrow and was suited perfectly for the Danforth type anchors. However...

Hey folks, I am very curious here and hoping somone on this site is an expert in VHF radio output..... I have 2 ICOM VHF radios. I have the upgraded Shakespeare 8900 model antenna's that have the silver solder that is supposed to be better at performance, so feel I have a pretty good system...

Anyone know where a source is for replacement cam latches that will fit on the cabin cabinet doors? One of mine just broke last weekend.

Guys, curios if your full swim platform is fully caulked all around, including across the top of the bracked in the motor well? When I got mine, it was sealed and I have continued to reseal when working on the platform, etc. However, I wonder if it should not be caulked and allow the water to...

Anyone ever broken off the original style plastic rod holder hooks that are under the walkway in the cabin? I just broke one off last week in rough seas due to my TLD50 Bend Butt rod being too heavy I guess. Thinking of making an alternate out of Starboard this winter as a project, but would...

Anyone ever lost their trim plane before? Seems one of mine has come free and sheared the pin from the hydraulic ram. I called Bennett and they gave me the part number to replace the same one that was made apparently for Grady which has the upfins. They are 18X9 size. Bennett will not help...

I don't get it on how these cases happen on most of these ramps. When I lived in Florida, the ramps were very slick and I do recall some cars/trucks being pulled out of the water. However, some of these are heavy duty trucks and they are going in deep and the ramps don't look to be that steep...

Anyone ever replace their gunnel flush mounted rod holder inserts? Mine are pretty worn out. I found some replacements available from CE Smith, but not sure what size these are. Just throwing this out there if anyone has already figured out a source and size. .....

Ok folks, this is a new one for me. Is it possible that the windlass can freeze up due to the cold weather? I was working on the anchor connections last week and had no issues lowering/raising and testing the retrieval. Temps were cold, but above freezing as far as I recall. Now, I go out...

Anyone know the source/manuf. of the new telescoping boarding ladders? What I like about them is the dual rung steps that allows more support for your feet. I can't find these online anywhere so far, so not sure they are Grady exclusive or not....

Hi folks, thinking about mounting a spreader type light under the pulpit for purposes mostly to show the anchor rope and anchor when retrieving in the dark. This light would cause no glare from the helm, but aid someone up front to see what is going on, etc. Might be able to see the rope from...

Hi folks, trying to to right by moving boat inland today from Hurricane Matthew harms, I took a rock in the windshield and shattered my front port side glass! Now I need to find the options for repair. Has anyone gone through this before? What were your options? I have contacted my...

I know a lot of discussions on props, but want some real world experience here on a couple of thoughts I have. Thinking that I might benefit by moving to 19 pitch from my current 17 pitch. How much, that is the question and hope to find someone with same hull design that has the 19's to see...
