I also don’t have very much money and was wondering about the whole boat in general because I have noticed that it likes to sink down in the back on a full tank but I have put that to the heavy motor and I don’t know much about what a core is I’m hoping it’s just the hatch is rotten the bilge...

So does this mean my boat has rot I got it from a fresh water environment and was like new but it was never surveyed and it rides great but since it is a 30 year old boat rot really scares me

I have a 1990 Grady white 228g and at some point the previous owner put a single 80 gallon tank in it, the boat originally came with two tanks, on the floor in the middle of the back of the boat there is a huge hatch I think it was for the other fuel tank but nothing is in it now and the hatch...

Yeah I’m probably going to take it to my buddy he works on cars and knows a lot more then I do about breaks I only understand how they work but not the full equation I was just only going to tow a mile cause my boat is at a marina but in a year or so I’m going to be towing a lot more so I might...

The trailer is aluminum and is like new it’s a 2004 I think but it has good brakes they just have a problem with them that they don’t engage I am probably going to take it to my buddy he does a lot of work on cars so I’m thinking he might be able to get something done

I understand the concerns about it but I’m either going to get them fixed or try it cause I’m kinda a nut

I’m talking about low gear on the tranny it locks it in 1st and I have a lot more low end torque and I’m probably going to get the trailer brakes fixed I can tow it without breaks but without a boat on the trailer

I Do fully understand your concern but I only need to go maybe 1.5 miles and I was planning on going through a backroad at 15 mph

I meant no working brakes on the trailer the dry weigh on the boat is 3000 so I think I should be fine I also have a low gear on the truck if I need more power out of it, it has a 4.7 liter v8 in it so should work

I personally think I would go Yamaha I have a 1990 seafarer 228g with a 2003 Yamaha 4 stroke 200 they seem to be worth the bigger price I’ve rode on boats that have has outboards from Johnson’s to yamahas and yamahas are my fave in my opinion

That’s fun af I’m from cb and have a 1990 seafarer 228g and go fishing offshore a lot and it’s tons of fun

I have a 1990 seafarer 228g with a 2003 Yamaha 4 stroke 200 on it and I love I personally think that price is good for the boat but idk much about older outboards that aren’t Yamaha’s

We run are boat in the Atlantic and have up to 8ft waves In are inlet on a normal day and it takes it fine with no problems

I was wondering if a 2000 Toyota landcruiser with a 6500 towing capacity could tow a 1990 Grady white seafarer 228g on an aluminum trailer with no breakers on the trailer I only need to go a few miles and the boat has a 80 gallon tank

I have a v1 hull 228g with a 2003 Yamaha 4 stroke on it, but a 200 will get you around with some power leftover. I've ran with 6 people on it and 80 gallons in the tank and it got up, fine no problems with a 200hp.

I have a 1990 v1 hull seafarer 228g mine came with 2 tanks, but was swapped out at one point for a single 80 gallon tank, I think it is like 100 gallons.

Dang, That really sucks hopefully you will get it all buttoned up.
