    1996 Grady White Adventure???

    wow, awesome. I use to launch out of Dana Point a few times a year when I had my 23ft Sea Ox years ago. When we go down to Solana Beach we sometimes see Charter Boats fishing off the reefs. I always wanted to bring my 1996 208 down there and fish the areas, but I would like to run with someone...

    1996 Grady White Adventure???

    OnoEric, Hows the fishing where you live? Where are the areas you fish with your 208 down south? Where do you keep your boat (oceanside)? Do you ever fosh the reefs off Solana Beach?

    I think its the port engine. Why would the bracket be "Torn" Apart? Maybe he hit something on the port lower and it cause the gap with the bracket.

    1996 Grady White Adventure???

    thats a great deal. Its an awesome small boat. Have someone look at the boat and do a survey on her if you are worried. If you don't buy her let me know about the deal and I will take a look. :goodjob

    208 rear curtain vs. cockpit cover for moored boat

    Sounds Good. I bought the tool from the canvas place where I bought the sides and visor, How did you fit the snap to the fittings on the windsheil snaps? Zip her up and pull down the canvas to the windsheil snaps? If so how tight should I make it? Thx, Jelly

    MINIMUM HP on a 228 G

    I would not go with anything under 200hp. I would think a F200 would be perfect on that Hull. I have a 208 with an F200 and love it. I don't have a hard top. I would not want a 150HP even on a 208 and for sure with a Hard Top.

    Grady CAPSIZES Saturday 12/30 in the Chesapeake

    I have a 208. If the fitting goes or a hose clamp or hose slips off, all of that water will be in your bildge and it will not take long. I keep mine closed at all times unless I am using them. Be safe everyone.

    Grady CAPSIZES Saturday 12/30 in the Chesapeake

    I had a handle break off one time as I was trying to close it. Need to check them all the time and when not in use keep them closed. I also noticed that my live well will fill up while running if I leave it open, without turning on the live well pump. Thats not good.

    1990 Overnighter, bad news?

    I would rather pay 10k for a better boat. Stay away from this boat. How did that crack get there? Thats a very bad spot for a crack. Boat looks bad to me. I would not pay 2k for it. Just me 2 cents. Look around more and you will find a better deal.

    For 265 Owners

    Seasick, I have a 208 and I have a Hatch in the transom that covers the water tank. I did not know that they had 208's without a transom Hatch?

    GW360 Hull - Deck Seam Split

    I agree, call your agent. If you keep running the boat as is and it spreads (I am sure it will) you could have trouble. You will want a pro to look at it and fix it. Don't try and fix it yourself if you are not sure how to do it, just my 2 cents.
