    2018 215 Freedom Gas Fill Problem

    One year later, and I still have fuel backing up in the fill neck and cutting the fill nozzle off. You have to slowly fill the fuel to keep the nozzle from cutting off. There are also other Freedom 215 owners having this same issue. I have been chasing the cause of this issue, and spent hours...

    2019 Freedom 215 gas tank

    The Freedom 215 vents through the side of the hull through a separate fitting, and does not vent through the cap like some other models.

    Steve, I have a 2018 215 Freedom, and I have the same issue. I have been trying to find another Freedom 215 owner to see if they have the same issue. I created a post about this about a year ago.

    Use Fresh Water System To Flush Outboard

    I always add Camco Taste Pure RV water treatment to my fresh water tank, and you won’t have that issue with the fresh water. The guy with the Evinrude is wasting time and money flushing with Salt Away for two hours. You are supposed to flush the engine with fresh water for a few minutes then...

    2018 Freedom 215 Gel Coat Chipping Off

    Thank you for all of the comments, explanations, and pictures. I have one of the best gel coat repair shops in the area about 4 miles from where I keep the boat. I will take it to him and see what his suggestions are to fix it. The boat was previously kept in the water all of the time, so it...

    Use Fresh Water System To Flush Outboard

    I just wanted to share what I did to flush my outboard as soon as I pull the boat out of salt water while the engine is still hot. I sometimes fish 45 minutes away from the house, so I wanted a way to immediately flush the outboard with fresh water and Salt Away. I have used this setup several...

    2018 Freedom 215 Gel Coat Chipping Off

    I was just wondering if anyone else has seen the gel coat chipping where the two colors meet on the side of the hull. Did Grady-White or the dealer warranty the repair? I am the second owner, so I am hoping they will fix this under warranty, but I am not sure.

    Trolling Motor on Sailfish 252

    I recently mounted a new Minn-Kota Riptide Terrova iPilot 72” shaft 36V 112lb thrust on the front of my Freedom 215. If the new 87” shaft would have been available, I would have gotten that one. The 72” shaft will stay in the water in a 2ft chop, but much more than that and it will cavitate the...

    2018 215 Freedom Gas Fill Problem

    I am new to the Grady White family, but I have a 2018 Freedom 215, and I was wondering if anyone else has an issue with the gas nozzle cutting off A LOT when filling the gas tank? The boat is on the trailer at the gas station. The fuel tank vent comes out of the side of the hull below the rub...
