    Grady 360 Express Electronics

    Looks great. I've wondered why is the radius on the lower right corner larger than the lower left? Also, what is the small white wire exiting the paned on the right side? Thanks.

    Using Electrical Outlets While Undereway

    The 2009 330 has a generator so outlets should work when the generator is running

    Comparing 330 Express Years 2004 and 2008

    I've been looking for a 33 as well. One feature that I really like on the 2008 and newer models is the fold-down ladder. I hate the Armstrong ladder mounted on the transom of older models. It's a great ladder, but you can't deploy it from teh water and it is somethig else to get lines tangled...

    Canyon 456

    1700 HP with the new Yamaha 425's! This will become the big tender of choice for mega yacht owners. I'm not sure anyone else will be spending that coin for a dayboat. I was really hoping for a big cabin model too - not because I could ever buy one, but because I'd like to see more 330's and...

    Help identifying mystery parts on my newly acquired 26 Isla

    Re: Help identifying mystery parts on my newly acquired 26 I #2 looks like a fitting to pass a wire through the HT. It looks like it was filled in with putty, but they typically have a nut on top with a rubber grommet in it that seals around an antenna wire as the nut is tightened.

    help tank is full but only 1 bar showing on yam gauge

    I had the opposite issue with mine (Read 3/4 full when empty) and I suspect your has the same cause. The design of the senders used to use a float inan enclosed cylinder. When Ethanol blends became common, the ethanol swelled things up causing the float to become stuck. Apparently there is a...

    275 underpowered with twin 150

    I have an older Islander with T150's and used to run it weekly to the canyons 60-70nm offshore. It planes fine with the 150s and most of the time the sea conditions limited my speed, not the engines. You mentioned wakeboarding - that would be a stretch. I'm not sure even with the 250's I'd...

    Why are Grady Whites darker than other boats?

    The new colors are painted on the hull, so maybe they leave the factory cream and get painted elsewhere :mrgreen:

    Lowrance antenna module

    I have a LGC-2000 that is new and never used. Not sure if it will work with your system but it is NEMA 2000. I originally had issues with radar taking out the antennas - I think I was the original test bed for resolving this issue at Lowrance. Anyway, this one should have the fix to resolve...
