I rather have 2...

    Poor Grady-White support for older boats.

    Well, I contacted GW a couple of times and I could get the answers I looked for. The Lady that answered my questions was great, to say the list and my boat is a 1998. I was amazed w/ the C. S quality. (just my 2 cents).

    Not enough power?

    Weather and work did not help, but as soon as possible I will. - By the way I decided to get ( 2 ) two stroke motors (weight is an issue) and expect to do the change myself (Of course i will be here many times when doing it). Thanks

    From single to twins.

    I decided to change my single motor and install twins (will get 2 two stroke one due to weight), just get the following info, "The American Boat and Yacht Council has guidelines for the distance at which twin outboard engines are to be separated based on the size of the engines. Their...
