I have a 2022 GW freedom 235 with a Yamaha F300. I’m not able to find that in their site. Do you have a link you can share? Thanks.

I have a Freedom 235 and the manual is not really helpful when trying to see the setup of the wiring and plumbing? Has anyone received a detailed service manual?

Hello all, I am wondering if anyone has gotten or no where to get a service manual for a Grady White Freedom 235 that will show you the complete wiring, plumbing, and hull structure diagram. The owner manual does not show this in detail. I called the GW customer service and still waiting for a...

Hello Rocketry, thanks for the info. Do you mind sharing the photos? Yes, the battery would be a tight fit. Did they give you any ideas how they would place the batteries?

When I run my hand on the hull area that’s peeling, it’s rough. All areas around it is smooth.

I was able to take a pic of it if that helps. The strands are the coloring of my hull and not clear. Thanks.

When I took off a thin strip (3/4"x1") of it, the film could be stretched, but becomes brittle and splinter after stretching a little. It doesn't look like shrink wrap. The pieces are on the side of the hull, so not on the edges. It is a mystery to me. I don't necessarily want to polish...

Hello all, I have a new 2022 GW235. I've only taken it out in freshwater three times now. I have cleaned it after each time I've taken it out. I plan to wax and polish it in a couple of months. The other day, I noticed a few hazy looking small film strips peeling off of the hull. It almost...

Thanks for the advice! Someone mentioned using a remote for the windlass. Do any of you have a preference on which wireless remote for the lewmar windlass is easy to install and works well?

Yes, I have 3 plait rode currently. Probably will go to 8 plait later, but trying to use the 3 plait until it's mostly worn since it is new. Has anyone also used any type of tape or way to mark the rode so that you know how much you have used and still safely go through the windlass? I was...

I have heard of a guide pipe where the rode comes into the locker from the top o help guide, but not sure if that would help. Anyone used or made a small rode guide? If so, does it really help?

Yes, I have a swivel in between anchor and chain.

Hello all, I have a new GW 235 with windlass and experienced some jamming of the anchor rode rope when letting anchoring. Do anyone have any suggestions in how to eliminate the jamming in the windlass and tangling in the box? I’ve let it all the way out and let it come back in, but still get...

The Rhodans seem like a trusted brand as well, with definitely an option of a long enough shaft. I’ll give this some thought. The only concern is how smoothly will it work with Garmin instruments. Wish the Garmin Force came in longer shaft options. Thanks!

Thanks Mustang for the video! This is helpful in seeing what it looks like and where they placed it. The ™ doesn't really take much room on the bow when it is stored, so you can still utilize that space. The boat is well taken care of and very clean too! The minn Kota TM seems to have a...

Hello all. I am a new Grady White owner. I was wondering if anyone has placed a trolling motor on a freedom 235. If so, what trolling motor do you have? What is the placement? What length shaft? I'm fitted with Garmin equipment, so I was looking at the Garmin Force, but the longest shaft is...

Thanks for the info all. This is helpful. Looks like my Yamaha cl7 is hooked up on the 12PIN XOCR cable in the back. On my ActiveCaptain app it says it is 20.40 version, so it sounds like it’s updated to the most current. Not sure if it somehow connected through the Garmin network without...

Thanks Sauza45. By any chance do you know what software version your cl7 is currently on? I'm not sure how outdated mine may be.

Hello all, I just got a new GW235 with Garmin 1243xsv chart plotter, Yamaha CL7 display, VHF, and Fusion Apollo radio/remote, Yamaha single Helm control. I was updating the software on the 1243xsv and noticed that the other screens did not update. I had to update each by itself (except for the...

Good thoughts everyone. I was hoping that the Jeep would be enough so I wouldn't have to look for another vehicle. I do love my HEMI V8 JEEP. I may have to consider borrowing from one of my friends his CHEVY Silverado 1500 with tow capacity of 7,600 lbs for the longer trips and use the JEEP...
