Yeah I would still like to borrow it. The middle of july will be fine. The best way to contact me so I can give you an address is by email at mattvosnick@gmail.com. Thanks

Sounds good thank you Matt

I live in West Point. Do you normally come through WP on your way to the river or 360?

I have a 2007 222 that I need to install new transom tubes in. Grady sent me the brass thru hulls but I have not put them in yet. I need to get the tool.

Go with either an etec or yamaha hpdi. I repowered with a 225 honda on a 96 and the stern was heavy. I would have put the hpdi on if I had to do it over again. Matt

I called Grady White customer service yesterday and they told me the biggest fortress that would fit in the anchor box was a FX-11. They did a test with 3/8 line, 300 ft. and a fx-7 and that fit but they did not try rope when they used the fx-11.

Bama, did you ever have a hard time holding with the anchor you had on the 222? The reason I ask is I had a hard time holding last year and plan to either get a bigger anchor or more chain or maybe even both. Thanks, Matt

That happed to my 2007 222. I replaced the sending unit and everything worked properly. A grady dealer had mine in stock, can't remember the price but wasn't to bad. Easy install to do yourself also.

Bennett M120's. I installed them on a 96 209 and they worked great. That is what Bennett had suggested when I contacted them.

I second the m120's. I installed them on a 209 and they worked great.

Check BOE marine, I think they have a sale on the M120's for a great price. I have bought a few things from them and they are very helful and you will receive the product quickly. If you call them, you will talk to Jim on the phone and he can give you advice. If money is an issue, you may...

The 209 was a 1996 model. Before I purchased the tabs I contacted both grady white and Bennett to see what they suggested. The M120's are plenty of tab for your boat. When I put them all the way down the bow shoves into the water and my top speed drops about 10mph.

Yeah it will get the bow down and ride much better. I put Bennett M120 sport tabs on a 209 and it was night and day difference. It is worth every dime.

I just replaced mine on a 07 222. Fuel sending unit cost $85 from a grady dealer.

Bama, good luck with the search. I've been pleased with the 222 so far and I updated the E80 with the new software. I just called raymarine and they sent me an update chip for free. I even got the navionics platinum plus chip for $255 when most places wanted $500.
