    Broken anti-siphon valve on a Tournament 192, how do I get the pickup tube out?

    Can you get a large EZ out inside the fitting and try to thread it out? Might save a lot of aggravation.

    Potential Buyer - Tell me about Grady moisture issues

    The Gulfstreams of that era are less likely to have moisture issues due to the transom design. Get a survey and decide from there.

    Wide beam hull delamination

    Has anyone done the repair and can relay a real world cost? I was going to look at that same Marlin but curious as to how the repair would be executed and how they arrived at the 20-30k number?

    Wide beam hull delamination

    Reviving an old thread, I know. Does anyone have first hand knowledge of cost to repair(approximately)?

    Voyager 248 Speed Question / 300hp

    I have the same setup with a 250 Honda. WOT is 43mph depending on seas. You would probably hit 46 if I had to guess.

    Fuel issue

    Could be your fuel lines degrading from the inside out. Were they replaced with the tanks? Was there a switch from non ethanol to ethanol fuel? The ethanol will scour the tanks and lines and clog your filters.

    Cabins of the 226/228 vs. 232 vs. 248/258 vs. 268

    Any of those boats are “tight” for overnights. It can be done, but living space is cramped and the water lapping up against the hull will keep you awake at night. Just my opinion.

    305 Grady White Express, 2007 for sale

    Thanks. Not convinced it’s the same boat but I’ll see what I can find out. OP was pretty elusive about the details and the lingo used doesn’t match the age of the poster. Just an observation.

    rub rail

    Try wiping down with acetone. Will clean it up nicely. Be careful not to get the residue on the hull. Works well. Good luck.
