Exact same boat, same problem, I'm not a big guy. Constant hassle and my #1 irritation with this boat. This boat is of course a compromise as all boats are, they do a lot of things well, nothing great imo, there's always a tradeoff. I do go forward and use the bow of my boat all the time, so I...

Mine requires a 'shove' as well. It's likely the same Delta that you have. My 11 year old comes in handy for the task. I've heard some guys have wrapped lead around that round bar that goes between the two 'wings' of the delta and it has made them self-deploy. I may get to it some day and...

Nice! I fished poplar and choptank area this past sunday, nothing great to speak of. A guy I know was just south of the target ship, west of smith island, a couple days ago and slammed nice sized blues and one cobia on light tackle. I fish this area pretty regularly, run out of the South River.

Amen to the Battery switch, has saved my bacon a couple times.

The tripped main gets me every season at least once, its a guarantee.

This isn't a political statement, just interested to hear how you'd solve the global shipping crisis or ongoing chip shortage plaguing nearly every industry across the world.

Do you recall what fridge you put in? Mine is original and showing it's age, I was going to see about replacing. The outlet is right there, and like you I was thinking I could just jump off of it and use the breaker for the outlets to do the fridge as well. Probably once a season I'll...

Good luck in your search. I think you'll find a fair amount of inventory down on the Chesapeake, lot of 228's running around out there. To Mustangs point, if you wait a few months you'll have more inventory to work with, and prob score a better deal. I bought both my Grady's in the fall. If the...

Grew up fishing Raystown and Erie, we did it on a Ranger, Bass Boat. My dad and I had our butts kicked running back into Presque Isle Bay more times than I can remember. Either one will serve you well, the 228 is just 'more', not a light boat which may be a factor with your tow vehicle. Are you...

I don't recall unfortunately, I want to say they were not.

Brand new 232 in the showroom at my local dealer, outfitted with 150's. That should tell you something.

That was a fun day, I love checking out Grady's! I was down at Tri State last weekend actually, they have a brand new Gulfstream in the showroom, 180k. It was outfitted with twin 150's.

My 02 doesn't even have those, the metal bang cap extends underneath to the vertical piece then it is sealed with caulk, poor design but it is what it is, to fishtales point why they didn't just glass the whole area is beyond me. I'd just reseal with 4200, that's what I do, re-caulking is a...

Starting to see in on the Bay, I'm on the South River. We have a few that have gone 'corporate' nearby. I also see mid-sized speculators getting in on this, in my day job I'm a commercial lender, so I am seeing financing requests for Marina's a lot lately. My old marina has changed hands, no...

It’s not winning any beauty contests. But it works. Under the labels they are just plain switches.

I have a panel off of my 2002 282. I'm near annapolis, i'd hand ya the whole thing if you want it. Just changed out and sitting in my garage.

I've used this stuff as well. Probably similar to partherys brand, which I may try as well. I hate the water spotty look...

We'd like to have a new boat as well, this has been a discussion for us lately, started by the Admiral of all people, for all the reasons one would want a new boat. Unfortunately, they don't make the 282, so it would have to be a Marlin. To me, the Marlin is more boat than I need most of the...

Good luck! I spent about a year looking for my 282, last ones of which are now 14 years old. Not an easy boat to find, but easier than the 265 which i tried for then gave up due to lack of availability. Saw a nice one on the chesapeake two weeks ago anchored up at Lowes Wharf.

I had a similar issue materialize late last season, a simple test of the batteries revealed my culprit. Mine are wired the same as Legend, so it would occur when I cranked stbd.
