My biggest concern with the whole bilge pump set up was that a one inch hole in the bottom of the hull would flood 10 times faster than the water would drain through that small conduit into the rear bilge. And the forward bilge certainly couldn't keep up.

Use the "hockey stick" method when you install the pump, and you won't be hanging upside down when you need to service it.

I wish I had a clock which recorded the time I spend on my boat in the driveway, and in my slip.

I got my re-power back Aug 29. Since then, I have used the boat 10 times, 43.6 hrs, 406 nm, 187gal.

Yes, I still have it. I no longer own a Grady, nor frequent this forum, so best bet is to text me at 919-923-2521

Are the Plano boxes 3600's?

Grady used plastic, not Marelon, through hulls and deck drains on their boats for a long time, as many on this forum have commented how they crumbled when trying to remove/replace. Maybe not below the water line, but an inch or two above is not much comfort in choppy seas. Happened to me on both...

I don’t recall ever seeing a Grady cockpit cover that went only to the back of the seating area. Most either go to the windshield, or to the back of the hardtop or bimini top. Maybe that is what you meant, a slant back cover.

Tennis ball cans in a plastic bin with a lid. No labels needed, you can see what is in each one. Labels are usually plastic film that just peels off. Free at your local tennis court trashcan.

I would start out by adjusting the straps until the Bimini is level. Undo the two rear straps, and walk them forward until the frame collapses in the bow. Straighten out the canvas, and then wrap it and the straps around the frame. Prop the whole thing up on a boat hook, or a deck brush, in the...

I find it useful, especially with twins, but I find it annoying when working on the boat, and will sometimes just up-plug it, because mine beeps every few seconds when only one motor is running, even with that key off. Unless you are the original owner, maybe a previous one, or a mechanic...

Best bet for a split hatch would be Rusty Ron’s/Island Marina(252-706-5706), here in Morehead City. He buys all of Grady‘s leftover parts, blems, returns, etc. from the factory. Has a huge warehouse of Grady parts, but is not cheap, pretty much in line with Grady pricing.
