Both great boats with differences already described. Depending on how old, the actual build of that particular boat, can increase potential moisture issues. At the very least, check the transom and the area near the near diesel generator exhaust. Those has been the hot spots for potential...

Lots of good advice given. I would have someone who has familiarity/expertise with yamaha engines look at the engines. If you were to have problems, most likely the issue with be related to the engines. Like others have said, you learn alot at the survey and can use your common sense if you...

I think you should consider whether you love the 305 boat or you really like to move up or on to something different next years. The new engines may give a a bit a renewed love for the boat but then you may still get the itch for something different. The boat will be twenty years old soon...

I always put in zero degrees swivel rod holders in the gunnel of my various grady white boats between the two factory placed holders for trolling for tuna.

I am averaging about 65 hours a year. I do full day trips and a lot of half day trips. Engines are always on. 99% fishing. My guess is 50% of the time is trolling. Hopefully, I can get my hours back up next year. I used to do 100 per season.

Hi Im in falmouth. Just bought a new to me 306 canyon. I was wondering where do they have non ethanol gas? Thanks! Jeff

I appreciate the input. My plan next year will be to try to master stern docking in at the private slip, where it's fairly easy to dock and see if I like it enough to carry it over to a Marina when I switch back. The key for me, bow in or stern in, is to not to get too bow thruster dependent...

I was just looking for some opinions. I am hopefully moving back up to a new to me 30 ft Grady 306 Canyon. I went down from a Marlin to 257 Fisherman , which I really enjoyed, but missed going further offshore. When I had my Marlin, I docked bow in because I felt that the easiest method in...

Sounds like a nice boat. Good Luck with the sale.

Those Gulfstreams are great New England boats. Nice beam and heavy for its size. Enjoy!

My ding is pretty good. I think it has me a little crazy since it is 2.5 year old new boat with ding. its somewhat similar to SDFish but maybe a little smaller. I will deal with it after our short season. Thanks again for all the input. Nice repair SDfish!

Thanks for replies

Hi Everyone- When I picked up my boat and took it to a slip an hour or so away, I noticed that my cowl on my 200 had a slight gouge. It looks like a propeller hit when moving around boats in the yard( my guess). My question- did anyone ever had a cowl fixed/repaired for gauge or dent etc...

new wire...

Hi Everyone, I have twin 200 2021 yamaha engines. The touch screen display never seems to completely line up with the actual trim position of the engines. It always appears that one engine is not at the same trim/tilt as the other engine. Sometimes it's flashing yellow for one engine when...
