    360 Question

    No separate switches but like ElyseM said - Just turn up the set point on the one you don't want to use. I do that all the time as I rarely use the little cooler box but always cool down the fish box.

    360 Express w/ trip F250

    The 360 with the trip 250's is plenty of power. Figure you will average .8 MPG at almost any normal cruising speed. I get .8 MPG from 29 MPH - 33 MPG running from 4400 - 4800 RPM's. I typically run the boat at 4600 - 4700 as I like to take it easy on the motors. This gets me 31 - 32 MPH in...

    Grady 33 Express Questions

    I don't know whether you are looking new or used but you can get a used 36 in great shape for less than a new 33 fully rigged.

    Grady 33 Express Questions

    You might consider a 360. The setee in that boat turns into the equivalent of a small double bed. You can only sleep one on it but it is EASILY accessible and quite comfortable unless your wife is 6 feet tall. You can see the TV from there or anywhere else in the main cabin. then YOU have...

    360 Settee Cushion

    There is a separate cushion. It is located in the storage area behind the settee and underneath the v berth. Pull off the back cushion of the settee where it goes under the v berth and you'll find the cushion in there.

    360 Express Owners

    I have that boat. she gets .8 MPG anywhere in the range from 4500 to 4800 RPM. Above that it goes down and below it it goes up. Cruise speed ranges from 32 - 34 MPH depending on wind/tide. Weight makes very little difference. Helm seats 4 plus the captain comfortable. Sleeps 2 in the v...

    268 w/ 250 ox66

    I had one like that and traded it for the same hull with twins.......Night and day difference. The twins boat ran with a much better attitude and took the slop way better. Hold out for one with twins.

    Repowering 1997 Spirit 175

    You had a perfect motor on the boat. 115HP is plenty. I prefer Yamaha but since you are already rigged for Evinrude why not just get a new one. Otherwise, you can still get 115 HP Yamaha 2 strokes.

    It must be at least 22 feet, and have sleeping, cooking and toilet facilities. A microwave counts.

    33 Grady White

    Do a search....There are many posts about this same subject. I had a 330 with 225's and no thruster. It cruised 1 MPH slower and burned LESS fuel that my buddies with the 250's - Turning the SAME RPM. I never needed more power and was happy to save the fuel. WE took that boat offshore plenty...

    outriggers, generator and a c/heat are they worth it

    You'll want the Genset and the A/C. Outriggers really only get used for Tuna so if you're not going you can always add them later. You can troll for shark but you can create a shark spread without the riggers....

    Where are all the 17 spirits?

    They're hard to find....I got one for my son two years ago and it took awhile to find one that was any good. We spend the first winter putting new hardware, thru-hulls on it etc... He has had a ball with it...GREAT boat....

    minimum hp for GW 19' tournament

    Nowhere near enough power for that boat. Minimum for even decent performance is 140.....It'll run with a 115 but not the way it was intended to. Most people power it with 150 - 200 HP. 70 won't even plane.

    Noise on F225

    Yup...It's a bushing...Shift shaft I believe - Usually only makes the noise in neutral or low idle. The problem is too tight a tolerance on the bushing. They can remove it and give it a quick tweak with a file or replace it with one that has a higher tolerance (New Spec.) If yours have never...
