    282 Sailfish repower

    The weight difference is 242 pounds. Get the engines and leave a fat guy at home when you go out.

    Power reduced

    Sounds like this would be Grady’s problem. Wouldn’t this be a warranty issue?

    Insurance Recommendation Needed

    I pay around $800 a year through State Farm. I have my auto insurance (4 cars) and my homeowners through them also, so I think I get a pretty good discount because of it. Maybe try the company you have your car and/or homeowners with?

    Grady White 228 Pilot House

    I was on a 23’ Parker at the Atlantic City Boat Show a few weeks ago and also noted the short gunnels. The thing that really surprised me though was the lack of under deck storage and/or fish boxes in the deck. The same style boat in the Northstar seemed to have a much better layout.

    Higher Fuel Prices

    I’m really lucky, I’m a half mile to the inlet and a three mile run to the Townsend Inlet Reef. The bay fishing I do is all within 2 or 3 miles from my marina. The party sandbar is maybe 1000 yards from the marina also. I do feel for you guys though.

    I subscribe to this YouTube channel “Jigging Jerks” and he just had a video about the NY regulations.

    Higher Fuel Prices

    My boat doesn’t go in until the first week of May and it has a full tank of 110 gallons. Hopefully that should last until well into June and maybe by then the prices will have come down. Trying to stay on the glass half full way of thinking.

    Higher Fuel Prices

    I did not wish this becoming a political argument on this site. I just wanted to point out that the federal government made $4 billion on leases on wind farms off of NJ. I wanted to make the point that this money could be reinvested in clean renewable energy without spreading the cost to the...

    Higher Fuel Prices

    More drilling permits have been granted under this administration than the last. Maybe the oil companies have once again taken advantage of a global situation to obtain record profits. Why aren’t the Saudi’s opening up the tap? Because why would they when they can get $100 a barrel now. In my...

    236 Fisherman Video

    Thanks for the video, I have a Fisherman 236. I haven’t had any of those bigger issues but the screws do back out on my windshield and I will be using his trick to fix them.

    Higher Fuel Prices

    A recent sale of the rights for wind turbines off the coast of New Jersey went for more than 4 billion dollars. Energy companies must see this as a viable source of future energy to make that kind of investment. The federal government now has that $4 billion to invest in renewable energy sources...

    Higher Fuel Prices

    Watching the suffering in Ukraine puts the sacrifice of higher fuel prices in perspective.

    Comparison of CE251 vs Fisherman

    I agree with Rocketguy88. I also have the 236 and the added safety is a big selling point. Unless you plan on just boating on back bays, skinny water or lakes I would go with the 236.

    Is yes worth it?

    Extended warranties are just bets. Manufacturers are betting that their product won’t break and the consumer is betting it will. I seem to think if the manufacturer is pushing the extra time on the warranty they must think they have a pretty good product. Most of us here have had experience with...

    new Grady quick connect engine flush

    A heads up also, with this option to remotely flushing engine/engines comes an extra hose running through the umbilical to the outboard. I had a problem with the grommet located at the connection to the outboard, it was constantly coming loose. I would reattach it and put on another wire tie. I...

    new Grady quick connect engine flush

    The Grady couplers have a check valve built into them so when uncoupled the water from the engine while running can‘t come back through the coupler. They do not work like a typical Milton connector used for pneumatic tools. I tried using the Grady connector when i first got my boat and found...

    Help : Wheelchair Access Door for 1989 Seafarer

    Is the boat trailered or in a slip? If in a slip would a handicap hoist like used at swimming pools work? Could it be something requested at a municipal owned ramp? Anyway good luck in your very noble cause.

    Comparison of CE251 vs Fisherman

    It should all come down to what are your priorities when using the boat. I have a 236 Fisherman and the main reason I got it is to fish. The walk around capability fishing was my number one priority. On the other hand it is a great boat for pleasure rides. The bow seating with the swing away...
