We’ve had both DC and CC boats, the latest a Grady 209. We found the CC was more open and flexible four our family of 4 plus another family of 4.

These guys can rebuild them for you. I replaced the seals and O-rings on my 93 Yamaha 150 trim cylinders and they worked great after with no leaks. Just need a special too to remove the cap. https://five-star-marine.myshopify.com/

P.S. wiring diagram is in the attached.

I have the same boat and had to replace a breaker and two switches in the last year. Use your multimeter to isolate the problem, pull the switch or breaker and find a match. I found the switches at Del City: https://www.delcity.net/store/Illuminated,-Euro!Style/p_796736.h_796752 and the ETA...

And get an extra long shaft so its stays planted in the waves.

I think your best bet is to get a local marine upholstery/canvas shop to make them for you. It won't be cheap.

I agree, 70 HP is adequate. I had a boat that size and took 5 people out and pulled a skier with a 70 HP. It was a long drag to get the skier up but we did it. I think a 90 would be perfect and you should be able to find a used one for a reasonable price. No way I'd put a new motor on a boat...

I always enjoy the New Hampshire palm trees in the craigslist pics. Where are you located? If I see something legitimate I’ll let you know.

I’m in the same boat looking for cushions and decided to just have some made.
