    I went from a 1994 208 Adventurer with a 150 Yamaha to a 1997 272 Sailfish with 2 225 EFI Yamahas and am very happy. So is the wife with the addition of a stand up head.

    max 2 stroke engine hours

    I picked up this Spring a 1997 272 Sailfish with the original S225TXRV's, 375 hours on the motors. I just passed 400 hours on the motors and they are running fine. My last boat was a 1994 Adventurer with a Yamaha 150 S/W series, I had that for 7 years and it never gave me any trouble, it was...

Both Port and Starboard sides have access from the gunwhales as well as access from in front of the seats. I made plywood covers to prevent anything from gaining access from...

    1997 Sailfish with twin Yamaha 225's

Could there be air in the trim/tilt system? The engines also flop over to the Port side while in the raised...

    Grocco GM-50 level monitor

    When I power up the panel all 3 lights empty, 1/2 and 3/4 full lights illuminate and the alarm sounds. I do not see a reset/silence button and I know that the tank is near empty, also I have been noticing a couple of gallon water accumulation in both the forward and aft bilges every time I go...

    New for me in 2010

    Great site!! I just picked up a 1997 272 Sailfish with S225 TXRV's EFI (370 hrs) which I launched on Saturday. All went well with the inagural run. My first Grady was a 94 Adventurer with a 150 TXRS which I had for 6 problem free seasons. A few of many questions I hope can be answered. What can...
