    Inverter Systems??

    Battery capacity and inverters have come such a long way-that’s not the hard part. Recharging the batteries in a reasonable amount of time is the next hurdle. Solar won’t cut it and most twin outboards won’t either. However, the new Yamaha 450 and Mercury v10’s specifically mention the...

    Grady White 330 Express Bow Thruster - Replacement

    Mine looks exactly like that. Mine is factory installed. I think it's done on purpose that way. for the life of me, I can't remember but I feel like that hump on the bottom is there for a reason.

    Repower 330

    speaking of insurance...when I repowered my 2004, I asked to have the agreed value increased and had to provide the paperwork for the engines. At that point, they asked about the Hp increase and wanted to see the boat was rated for it. I provided a copy of the sales literature off the grady...

    water proof covers VS shrink wrap

    Agreed it's a waste and a quality winter cover is the gift that keeps on giving. What about weight, though? I'd hate to get a winter cover I need to have it forklifted onto my boat. How heavy is a winter cover for a larger, say... 30' plus boat?

    Sharrow Props

    VCR's were also 1000 bucks... microwaves very expensive too when first introduced. They got dirt cheap as time went on so maybe there's hope for us average boaters.

    Sharrow Props

    Very accurate... the ratio of money spent vs confidence doesn't add up motor vehicle cold air intake: few hundred at most and you can find dozens of people who have put the same on your same exact vehicle- Low buy in and a pretty accurate idea of what you will get for the money even if you...

    Grady Express 360

    I'd much rather go for the newer boat Personally, I'm not the best captain on the earth but even a dope like me doesn't see the need for helm master. That 330 will have a bow thruster and the engines on a 330 are very far apart. A little practice can make up for that. Seakeeper is whole...

    Sharrow Props

    There's lots of products we buy for our boats that we will never get the money back out of...As a group, we boat owners just piss away money. If normal folks knew the real truth, most would say we were insane. And don't even get me started if our wives actually found out the truth. I'm among...

    Sharrow Props

    I volunteer to be the first V8 verado powered 330 express to run sharrow props. Sharrow can PM me for the address to send my free props to! If they get 15% better speed at 4500 rpm I'll even pay full retail! lol

    Sharrow Props

    I've also seen the tests. where do they show how these test boats were optimized with conventional props before they were tested against sharrow? I'd love to give them a try but I'd hate to get banged for 10K and find out they are 5% better lol

    Repower 330

    I bet a spare ecu would solve that issue. Swap the factory one back if you need service.
