    Water tank for winterizing F250

    Bob Here in MN I'm done for the season> My Grady is parked in the shed until next April. I winterize by running motor to operating temp, drain oil and replace oil filter.

    Water tank for winterizing F250

    :hmm Bob, I don't know why they dont work. I have the rectangle dual feed muffs and they worked on my F-150 and F-115 motors. I too think if is a mater if fitting properly. Too loose a fit because of the radius of the lower unit? So the other day I just cut down a 55 gal drum and filled it...

    Water tank for winterizing F250

    205 Tournament w/ 150hp Outboard - Underpowered?

    I have a 2009 205 with a F-250, personally I wouldn't want anything smaller. Perfect match! It took me a while to find this combo too. I believe they put a 150 on is to keep the cost down

    225 Freedom

    Thanks Vic, how do you like your 225? We ended up buying a 2009 205 instead of a 225. I'm allready slightly regretting not getting a 225. :-|

    Brown stain on the hull

    Here in MN we have a lot of iron in the water, which leaves a brown colored stain. My Grady sits in the water and I pull it out every 3-4 weeks and work on the stain. I will try that cleaner on it.

    Covering a Moored Boat

    Frank, my mooring cover will be custom made using the Sunbrella fabric! It will have a ratchet for tightening the cover down. You will be able to put the ratchet on either the port or starboard side so one can cover the boat from the dock! My 205 DC will be in a wet slip all season here in MN...
