Correction 2016. 90 + hours.

Had some follow up questions. I don’t need to sell the boat—just getting older and don’t need it. Annual maintenance performed last month by Southeastern Marine. Will probably buy a smaller boat down the road for the grand kids one day. I’m not selling but turning it over to Mickey at GW long...

My third GW I’m parting with for lack of use. Low hours—I think under 100. Zero issues and all Grady maintenance. Location Richmond Va.

I should have been more specific. My 275 is on a lift in a boathouse so I guess down is ok??

Today’s dumb question. When leaving the boat for extended periods, is it better to leave the engines in the up or down position? I have twin 200s. Thanks

I have a 2016 Freedom 275 with very low

Yes port side seat is wide enough for 2.

Thanks for the response. Twin 200s. No wakes-- straight ahead and tends to heavily favor starboard . Like it wants to slide over on its side. Trim tabs help but it seems I am constantly adjusting dependent on crew. I am first to say I'm not a pro even after 3 Grady's but I'm wondering if I was...

I have gone from a 208 to 225 to now a 2016 Freedom 275. A fine boat with great amenities. Here is my problem: I am having a hell of a time keeping it from sliding on its side. I play with the tabs etc but every time I get in it with a different number of people I feel like I am losing control...

More pics-- I hope. Have not used it much but sure feels much bigger than my 225. Still getting used to twins and keeping attitude of boat steady.

And no wood in the boat at all I am told. The moving of the wet bar makes sense to me although it's my first 275. Got the fridge-- hope it works well. Just put it in water with dealer and went maybe two miles. Seems very solid. The tell me the gauge set up is different. Maybe I can get pics...

We have moved from a 208 to a 225, now to a 2016 Freedom 275 . Loved 225, but with a big family it was getting tight. It's at dealer now. Here are a couple of shots at the dealer (Southeastern Marine). Dealer tells me there are some nice changes, including being roomier. Hope to have her in...

Possibly looking at moving from a 225, which I love, to a 275. For those that have one, what are the must have options on the 275? Thanks

True to form , came down for holiday weekend, and as soon as I start to troll, my 2008 225's buzzer sounds and overheat comes up. Tried to clear peehole, just dribbles water. Motor is a 250 with only about 250 hours. Water pump? Thx

I lost a port side front cushion on an 08 225. I knew they were expensive but was amazed when quoted over $500 . Anyone know of altenative soucing for these? Or something that would be a workable soulution, if not perfect? Thanks
