    New to me (2000) Grady 263 Chase In Annapolis. Need fiberglass help

    I used Jeffrey Deckman Fiberglass in Essex to redo a couple hatches for me over the winter. Quick turn, a good price and a great job. 443-506-7459. Just remember this time of year will be tough for quick service.

    Opinions- New enclosure GradyBlue or OffWhite?

    Gulfstream fish box

    It’s the same box that is on the 30 marlin and it’s big. It’s well insulated. It will hold ice but will hold it much longer if you buy a cheap foam yoga mat and place it on top of the ice. Works like a charm.

    305 express vs 330- sleeping accommodations

    The 330 allow you to keep the table up and still have the v-berth. I am 6’-1” and have owned both the 30 and the 33. There is no comparison as far as sleeping. The rear berth is also much more comfortable. Now let me understand something here...... you wife wants the bigger boat? What...

    Perko dual battery switch

    Place one switch on #1 and the other on #2 and forget it. Dont use “both” unless you have to. Never switch through “Off” with the engines running or you will blow the power heads.
