    Grady Seafarer 228 - Accessories

    There isn’t a particular mix that is perfect. As a boat ages the gel coat fades so each boat’s gel coat is a slightly different colour. A fibreglassing shop may be able to mix a colour to suit if the have access to the boat.

    Oh yes, there are people like that.

    228 Seafarer upgrades questions. MFDs - 2 9s? 1 12" or 16"? Auto-deploy trolling motor and shaft length?

    I’m looking to flush mount a 16” TZT3. I cut out a template and it should just fit. I would love a 19” but I think it would be too big. I prefer one larger than 2 smaller ones. If you had two 8” units together they will be wider than a16” unit. The 16” unit will be higher than the 8” units so...

    WTB Adventure 208 / Seafarer 228

    A big plus for the 228 is it doesn't have the aluminium transom bang cap which is a well known cause of wet transoms.

    Small cracks lead to transom replacement

    I don't think the cracks were the cause but are due to an already wet core expanding as it froze.

    Hairline cracks in 2020 228 hardtop?

    I thought the same. I have a feeling mine have the same. I’ll look next time I’m at the boat.

    2004 GW Gulfstream Outrigger Mod (or deletion)

    I had some anodised aluminium brackets made. No need to weld mounting plates which means removing the fibreglass top and removing the wiring from the tube being welded. Extremely strong.

    Hairline cracks in 2020 228 hardtop?

    Are they cracks or scratches do do with the welding process.? Are you sure they weren't there before? If you look at the edge of the of the aluminium plate in photo 1 do the cracks extend into the plate?

    Need some measurements please for a older Seafarer Hardtop

    Looking at the photographs the walk around width looks the same as a 228 meaning you would need to move all the vertical support in a substantial amount the retain the walk around space on a 228. That is a lot of cutting and welding to make it fit. I am thinking a custom made one may be cheaper.

    Does anyone have the new SHARROW propellers on their Grady white 330

    In June last year it was announced that Yamaha would be producing Sharrow Propellors by casting instead of CNC. Was expecting the price to drop significantly. But it hasn’t. Wondering if Yamaha is producing for new boats rigged with Yamaha outboards only. The attached article has a photograph...
