Hi Guys, I've got to snake a new transom mounted transducer wire to the electronics box. I can see the 'hull harness' tube on the starboard side behind the transom door. My question is where does this tube come out up front? Is it behind where the capacity plaque is below where the throttle is...

I've got a 2007 Grady White Gulfsteam 232 and am looking to mount Taco 1.5" Outriggers to the hardtop. Is the hardtop sturdy enough to support the outriggers with just backer plate? Or do I need to weld a plate in to the aluminum frame to support them? Thanks in advance.

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a Garmin 741xs with GMR 18HD Radar. Before I start drilling holes, I'd like to hear of any installation lessons learned and tips. My understanding is the installs are plug and play but want to avoid amateur mistakes.

I'm thinking about adding radar to my 2007 232 and hope you guys can help me narrow down my search. Which combos are most recommended and most commonly installed on this class of boat? What should I expect to pay? Pros and Cons of different set ups. Do you guys install your own units? If so...

After being quoted $1,400 for the factory Gulfstream auxiliary cushion supports, I am now moving on to pursuing "Plan B" or "Plan C". Guys I tried sleeping on this boat without the center cushions and I just can't get my 6' 1" frame comfortable. Plan B: Does anyone have a support set they...

I have yet to use the Yamaha "Command Link" Fuel Consumption Feature. Has anyone used it and how accurate do you find it to be?

I am curious to know how far out other Gulfstream owners take their boats. I have a 2007 with a single F250 that was new to me last year. I have put several hours on her doing trips to Block and Montauk and one 25 Miles Offshore getting used to the boat and its capabilities. I would like to hear...

I am purchasing a pre owned Gulfstream that has never been bottom painted. I would like to know what is required to prep the gel coat for barrier coat. I prefer not to get the dust flying and so am thinking about wet sanding by hand with 80 grit. Do I just need to make sure the surface is dulled...

I am purchasing a 2007 Gulfstream and am wondering if the lower bunk filler cushions and their support came standard on that boat. Thanks in advance!

As I sit here scouring boattrader.com and craig'slist waiting for boats to start showing up for sale, I am still not 100% convinced a Seafarer 228 is the ideal Grady for me. I like the idea of being able to easily trailer it without a permit. The Seafarer also appears to be a fair deal better on...

I'm looking at potentially purchasing a boat with a 2008 F250 that has 560 hours on it. Other than the corrosion issues I've read about.... 1. What should I be looking for in the maintenance history of the motor? 2. What can be done as part of a high level physical inspection without taking...

I'm going to look at a 2006 Seafarer 226. The boat and motor have approximately 500 hours on them. The motor is a Yamaha 225 Four Stroke. The boat is equipped with hardtop, pulpit, windless and trailer. The hull is bottom painted. Any advice you can provide as to what I need to be looking for as...

I am looking to buy a clean 228G and am curious to know when the last major design change(s) occurred (hull or otherwise). Judging by pics on Boattrader.com and Boats.com, it appears 228's built in 2000 look nearly identical to a current model. Any info. you guys could provide would be greatly...
