    Just Sayin......

    I was able to squeeze group 31 batteries in mine, went with full river at the recommendation of my buddy who owns an off grid power company. Sells thousands of batteries a year. They were a pain to get in but once I do my repower to 4 stroke I can get rid of my oil reservoir and will have plenty...

    Yamaha F250 vs. Honda BF250?

    I have limited knowledge on this but am currently considering a repower on my seafarer and the thing that will sway me Yamaha is the Helm master setup.

    WTB Grady 228 Seafarer

    Thank you, I didn’t really understand the depth of addiction to these boats prior to owning one. Got really lucky with it I think, I still don’t really understanding the pricing in today’s used boat market but given that it was a single own and has never seen anything other than freshwater on...

    WTB Grady 228 Seafarer

    I just bought a 98 with 400 hrs. Never put in a slip was always garage stored in a heated garage. I paid 33k. I was hesitant at that price because I feel like prices are going to plummet with the economic issues on the horizon and it has a 225 ficht which I wasn’t pumped about. I ended up not...
