Do both the head sink and the galley sink drain overboard? I had it in my head that they both went into the shower sump or forward bilge but guess I need to go look at the schematic again. That would make things easier for sure.

If I can remember I'll get a picture of mine when I get down to the boat later today but on the 265 the optional summer cover uses the same snap points as the curtain set and runs all the way around the top of the glass, over the two aft facing seats and down to cover the fish box. It's great...

I haven't but am interested to hear how it goes. I still use the fridge, nice to always have a cold beverage available, but AC would be really nice as well. The raw water pickup for the head is right there in the cabin sole and could be an easy enough place to access. I know this will freak...

Gutted everything and went with all Raymarine when I did mine a couple years ago. Pair of 12" Axioms in the dash (one Pro, one regular), Quantum wi-fi Radar (never had any connection issues), new AP setup, dual sounders, dual networks (RayNet and SeTalkNG), etc. Added a FLIR a year later...

I like it. Wondering if the indicator lights would be a distraction when running in the dark, I've got a roll of electrical tape in the glove box for this problem but is there a cover or can the brightness be adjusted?

Actuators are custom as noted and the stock kits you can buy online won't work without modification (and not even sure about that). I had mine done by the Grady dealer, think it was $800 something all told, about half of that was labor. When I looked into doing it myself I imagined a lot of...

Great to hear, thanks.

I've been looking to do the same and this was a leading candidate. Good idea about the sensor up on the dash. How big is the display? I'm likely going to redo my instrument panel (again) and could incorporate this into the planning.

I went all Raymarine when I redid the electronics a couple years ago as their 12" MFDs will fit a flush mounted 265 dash with only a little cutting required and I wasn't convinced Garmin would fit as they were taller units. Very happy with the total package to include the AP.

I lost a fuel cap and used the fresh water tank as a temporary replacement until I got a new one. They were the same Perko cap just with a different marking. Got my replacement fuel cap from West Marine.

I may be a bit of a pariah in the 265 family but I do use my tabs - albeit sparingly. I also added a trim tab indicator a couple seasons ago so I'd have a better idea of where they're at. Without one I never quite knew if I'd gotten them fully retracted just by the sound of the pump and now...

Be interested to hear how the tilt roller works for you. I've been thinking of doing the same for a while now as about 2 of every 3 times I drop the hook I've got to go up forward to get it started as it just hangs up on the roller.

I like those adjustable outrodders, mine are fixed and I run them in the forward gunnel holders, they put the rods close to straight out from the boat and just a bit above horizontal to the waterline. I have a pair of flat line release clips for the two aft corner rods that we use when trolling...

Replaced mine with blue LED, Partsam 3" round nav lights in chrome, 6-2835-SMD, $16 for the pair from Amazon. They're a near identical match and installation was easy but they are pretty bright and I honestly don't use them much, granted they were listed as transom mount stern anchor lamps so...

Congratulations! Welcome to the club, they're amazing boats.

Copy, thanks for looking.

Anyone know this boat? Got a buddy who’s looking to move away from his inboard cruiser and of course I’m pushing him towards a Grady. From the listing it seems like a pretty solid deal. Engine hours are a little low and electronics are somewhat sparse and likely original but she looks clean...

I've got the Quantum 2 paired via wifi with my Axiom MFDs. In the two years now that I've been running it I've had zero performance issues and zero connection issues with the wifi. Happy with it.

My compass hasn't changed but the components around it have and that was my culprit. AP pump on my 265 was mounted under the instrument panel, compass is centerline right in front of the helm and maybe 12-15" from the pump. Pulling the old one out I didn't notice any movement but dropping the...

Fin-Addict Marine (contact Brown, sales@finaddictmarine.com) has the 265 dash templated for max surface area and has done several for folks on this site, mine included. The piece they did matched up perfectly with the outer line of the overall dash panel area and was enough for me to mount a...
