Hey - I have a 1989 Grady Tournament and recently, it appears that my fuel gauge is reading past empty. The gauges are brand new, just over 2 years old, that were put in with my re-power. The gauge was also working a week ago. However, I did check the colts to the gauge and I am getting my 12...

JB - lots of info in this forum about this, I did it myself also - here is at least 1 thread that I started on 89 tournament - viewtopic.php?f=3&t=22746

Not an expert on these things but the first question I'd ask is, what is the condition of the transom? Then what is the weight of what's on there now and what is the weight of the two verados you have and are contemplating putting on. But the condition of the transom would be my first concern.

Hey, PS Guy - the repair looks good. What did they use and who did you use? In New Jersey at all? It looks like they used brass fittings again - not sure I'd go that route though. $3500. sounds like a good price since I have been seeing around 6,000 but I think it depends on the material used...

Thanks, doc! Yeah I did jump on it to look for any flex and do not see any.. (I forgot to include that part). The bubble is not on the transom though..it's a whole other issue maybe aside from the transom problem - it's on the starboard side of the hull, is that an odd place to see...

Hey guys! I was wondering if you guys can help me with a possible transom issue. My boat is a 1989 Grady White Tournament 195. I re-powered 2 years ago and at the time, the marina who did the install said the transom "looked good" and was able to handle a new heavier 4 stroke. But now it looks...

Okay, so I put her on the trailer this morning - here is what I have: [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img] And this one here is a pic of the sonar image going about 1000 RPM's. [/url][/img]

Thanks, Dennis and Doc - yeah, let me get her on the trailer to take a picture of the transducer mounting - it's supposed to rain tomorrow so probably over the weekend. I did know about the garmin shield to eliminate the rooster but I didn't want get it until I knew the mounting wasn't my...

Hey! So, I am a rookie with these fancy electronics. When I bought my Grady 10 years ago, it came with a fish finder on it already installed and I didn't have to do anything and it worked. Although it was an old finder, black and white screen, I didn't have colors and cool features and pretty...

A Day in the Bay

Haha, not so sure about that, Dennis! That was quite a project you had there though. That would take me all summer if not longer.

Hey mboyatt - yeah just to be clear, I don't lose power on the engine, otherwise I would just bring it back to the serviceman since I am still under warranty. :-) For example, my RPM's were up at 4000 but my GPS speed read 13mph. The engine itself isn't losing power, it sounds just the way it...

My '89 'Tourny 195 has a 60 gallon tank on it.

That is one funny $#% story, Dennis!! lol Anyways - so now that I have the boat back in the water.. I have a new problem that did not exist last year - some cavitation or ventilation. I bought a new yamaha 150 - had a service dealer install. All last year everything ran fine. But now, it seems...

Hey all! Sorry just getting back now! But just to update - the floor is back in and it's pretty darn solid! Amazing! I guess though I know how well of a job I did by how long it takes to have to do this again! :dance That all said - thanks everyone (ands especially Dennis) for all the...

Hey, got a maybe silly question - for the fiberglass, which side lays down on top of the foam? I have silvery back side and the other side is fiberglass strands -… does it matter?

Love this forum!! :D While on the topic I am looking for a bimini top for my '89 Tournament 192 - Are those still replaceable? I think the last time I called Grady White and they said they did not. It looks like there are 3rd party companies...

So, I got everything I need to start and complete this project - I can't believe the foam Divinycell would/will/hope be strong enough to support the floor. Wow.. a little nervous.. :-) So here is what I was wondering - I am going to wet out the foam but do I let is cure before handling it...

Thanks! I'll keep the thread posted as I progress! In the meantime, have a great weekend!
