    Express 360 Owners - Advice appreciated!!

    I have owned my 360 for 3 years and have had no issues at all with the thru-hull fittings or the ease of getting to the important ones. In fact very little issues period. We took our boat from above Jacksonville Florida to the Bahamas and spent 2 weeks living on board. The only hiccup was with...

    Love my Grady 360

    Hi Shannon, Is your boat a 30 or a 36? I really want a trailer but I hear that because of the width it falls under a whole different set of DOT rules "Wide Load" and all that. Do you have to deal with that as well. Have a great weekend

    Love my Grady 360

    Thanks so much. I really like the upper helm on your boat. Did you add that? We looked into adding one last year.

    Love my Grady 360

    We have always owned Grady Whites but by far this 360 is my favorite. We have taken it to the Bahamas, fished all over Georgia and Florida and had a ton of great adventures so far. I highly recommend anyone thinking of stepping up to take the plunge.

    Here is what they did to raise the seating on each side of the helm. The cool thing is that it also added to the storage available.

    360 Express Abaco & back - Davit - Dinghy

    I totally agree about the seating. On our boat, the previous owner had the seats raised on both sides by building custom fiberglass extensions or boxes and now everyone can see out and they look like they were designed that way. I will take some pictures to show you what they did which was...

    360 Express Abaco & back - Davit - Dinghy

    We are about the same. With triple 300 4 stroke Yamahas we burn about 40 gallons an hour at a speed between 26 - 28 MPH and properly trimmed. I thought those engines on your boat looked brand new. Wow! great find. I am looking at possibly putting a tuna tower on and removing the back structure...

    360 Express Abaco & back - Davit - Dinghy

    What a great boat! When we were looking to upgrade from the Grady 28, we were actually looking for the 33 express. We ended up with the 36 express simply because an elderly client of mine had one for sale with low hours. It sounds like you are definitely getting "Our Time" ready for this trip...

    360 Express Abaco & back - Davit - Dinghy

    Yes it has a motor. There is a dedicated battery on top, inside the Satellite dome. The satellite did not work so we took the parts out of the dome and ran the wires to it and secured the battery to the base. The dome has an up and down button and there is also a remote control lanyard. I will...

    360 Express Abaco & back - Davit - Dinghy

    I purchased the Davit from a guy in Alaska who makes them. Found him on youtube of all places. We had to modify it and add two additional supports to handle the weight of the Dinghy when swinging it over the side but it has worked good for us. You can see his videos on youtube by typing "Jahrig...
