    Hours on Engine

    Average use is 100 hours a year IMO. That 500 hours is nothing on the engine if it has been maintained. Have it checked out by a Yamaha Tec and go for it. 8)

    Freedom 255 DC

    The center line includes the Euro transom. So shave off 2'6". The Cockpit SF is trivial. 11 SF? Not enough difference in my mind. I guess they are about to drop the 225 Tournament. It might be one of the best selling Grady's of all time and it is about to expire. I love mine and it is perfect...

    Gulf Fishing Closure

    Well Snapper season opened in the Gulf today. Looks like it will be short lived. 31% of the Gulf shut down. Damn you BP. :twisted:

    Freedom 255 DC

    I am not impressed. No more room than the 225. It looks like a 225 with a Euro transom. The closed transom and bracket are better IMO. I guess you gain a longer running surface and some beam with this model.

    If I didn't already have a dock-box

    Ok I am getting one this weekend. Is the gas shock decent? You think it will rust up quick and stop working? Great find Capt. Bill. :D

    If I didn't already have a dock-box

    Well how did the install go? Did you have to drill holes in the bottom or were there pre drilled/knockouts? Mine is going to have to be bolted down so it doesn't walk off.

    The Oil Slick...Kind Of Grady-Related.

    Still too many unknowns. Not sure what to believe at this point. Some say it is worse than they are saying and others are saying the new media is making it bigger than it is. No doubt there will be some oil here but how much? Really sucks for the Charter boat guys here. They were already dealing...

    F250 Reliability

    No those F250s are not even broken in. They will last for 1000s of hours if maintained. Just have them checked out. You may be able to extend that warranty as well. I bought an 06' with 87 hours on the F250 and no warranty left. It runs great and should last for years. Buying used is the way to...

    Other boat builder forums

    True but Grady White stands behind their products better than any other. That is the difference. Premium customer service comes with a premium price but well worth it IMO. 8) The THT know it alls and bashers are entertaining. 99.9% of them have never seen a Grady White in person much less ever...
