It does slope slightly aft. But looking at this old pic with bottom paint. Not enough to make any real difference. Ugh! Predicament!

I dont think I can raise them. Maybe an inch at most. The hose is already pretty flat. out the side might give me more clearance from the waterline.. Ill take a look this weekend.

No intentions of the boat being wet slipped again. Its in/out service right now. Stored on the hard. Next season will likely get moved next door to the boatel. Covered storage rack.

I knew going in my transom needs replaced. Patched it up for the time being and its solid. This upcoming winter or next it will be getting replaced. By default, I'm a planner. Down the road I plan to repower with 4 stroke twins. Seriously considering not reinstalling the transom...

Thank you. Now i see how they attach.

I aired out my 264 a few weeks ago. Wasn't intentional, but it happened... Heard the engine rev off a washing machine wave. Nailed the landing! LOL

I have a few broken snaps for my enclosure, cushions. Most are an easy fix. Bought snap pliers and a large assortment of snaps. But the side snaps along the glass, are they standard snaps attached to the little slide brackets? Or do you purchase them already together? Can't...

Manual would be my suggestion. Hydraulic have their place but mostly used on shallow water boats... flats boats or bass boats. Since you are just trying to raise the motor slightly and leave it there, manual would be the way to go.

soft top? or bimini? totally different animals. A soft top yes. It will either weld of clamp to the frame rails. Measure the rail size and have at it. Bimini? I havent seen one yet I would trust to hold my rods.

From personal experience. The Chesapeake sucks for boating. LOL. Confused seas is an understatement!! I'm in it every weekend. You will really have to play with different settings over and over to figure out what works for you boat. I realized yesterday that my 246 like being...

Its Tri state marine. Grady White, Parker and Sea Pro dealer. The actual dealer is up the street, buy they also own the fuel dock/tackle/bait store on the water.

There are at least 20-25 gradys on the creek., LOL! I think there is a gulfstream on the eastern side past the fuel dock.

Im on the the eastern side of the creek.

Now I know why. Grady dealer right up the street. Some of you guys have to be on here. :)

Should look like this.

You can figure out the first part is you know the year and length.. I think. The last numerical part is also on a sticker on the cylinder head.

I highly doubt it was undersized..... It would take a hell of a lot of pressure to snap an anchor rode. Unless it was 1/8 line. The only real possibility was something sharp underwater that chaffed the line. what size boat? anchor? and line are you using?

YouTube. Its an easy splice. (harder due to 8 plait) should only take about 30 mins.

It's a long run from up here. LOL!! Bucket list fish is a cobia on my own. I did catch a few small snapper blues just south of the target ship (buoy 68) . Little a-holes destroyed all my live spot. I did see a few Gradys on the water. One may have been you.
