Alright, i've got some water coming into the bilge. Very slowly and i think i've narrowed it down to the bilge plug. The boat is a 2003 so i'm thinking i probably don't need to replace the entire fitting. Has anybody had a problem with their bilge plug fitting in a boat that's only 5 years...

not sure where you're from. But there area at least two 222's for sale on long island. Check newsday. i beleive an '04 and an '06 or '07

I went through the same exact thing before i purchased my 22. I don't trailer mine so that was not a factor for me, however, if you are trailering i'd seriously look at that. Both are great boats and i'm sure you'll be happy with either one but why not get what's best for you. These are...

I flush the engine at the end of every trip. The boat is in a slip, should i be flushing the engine in the up or down position? I think the manual says up position, just curious what everyone else had to say

i'll get pictures up when i can. I'm loving the 222 what a great boat for it's size... great fishability, layout, etc. I have the yam f225, pushed the boat just fine. I cruise around 30-31 mph at 4100 rpms..... tops out around 5800 rpms doing 43 mph.

I've my new to me 2003 grady 222 out a few times and i'm loving it. Smooth, dry ride, drifts nice... that sea v2 hull is incredible. Had my first striper on the boat today, it's good to be on the water!

jaydub - You see water coming in through the deck drains or in the engine well? or both?

just to clarify, i'm not saying water just enters the scuppers. With 2 decent sized adults in the cockpit water will be on the deck. good, bad, or doesn't matter?

I'm going to look at another boat as well, a 22 hydrasport vector with a 225 etec. I love the way the grady rides, that sea v two hull is great. I also like the layout of the grady a bit better. I'm not a fan of the integrated bracket on the hydrasport. I'll compare the two and make my...

i spoke with customer relations at grady white today and they told me that it's normal for grady whites 22 and under to take some water through the scuppers with 400 - 500 lbs in the cockpit. No modifications have been made in boats 22 and under for the weight of four strokes, i was told they...

i bought it over the winter, but the sale is subject to sea trial now so i can still get out of it. Greg, what model year do you have and what engine?

It was a disappointing day for me today. I went to pick up my new to me(used) 2003 222 fisherman from a reputable dealer (not looking to bad mouth anybody, yet). Some problems with electronics not functioning correctly but that was the least of it. My main issue is with the way the boat sat...

this post has been a help to me. I'm taking delivery of a used 2003 222 on may 4th and you can bet i'll be checking that panel to be sure it is sealed. Just to confirm we're talking about the small one inside the splash guard? What about the larger panel for gas tank access, i'm assuming this is...

What is the best way to seal the metal trim along the top of the transom? Can it be done without removing the engine? Where can i get the gaskets to replace on the deck hatches? Do i need to order from grady or can i get at a marine supply store? Why 4200 and not 5200?

Are there benefits to using wood vs composite?

is it possible to put ablative paint over non-ablative? or would this not work?

hey guys, getting ready to launch my first grady soon. She's used and i'm cleaning her up, waxed up the hull still have to wax the inside. Just curious, what do you use to clean the non skid? This may sound dumb but does anybody wax the non skid or the deck? doesn't sound like i should but...

does anybody know if/when grady white changed the transom or hull design to accomodate the weight of the 4 stroke engines? Will a 2003 222 fisherman sit with the scuppers below water or take on water through the scuppers with a yam 225 4-stroke?

Thanks fellas, i appreciae all the info. I'm gonna call POE and see what they can do ... then i'll take it from there. Thanks again

it's a 222 fisherman, small boat, center console, 225 yam 4 stroke
