    Fighting Chair in Grady 360

    I am thinking of this on a 360... http://www.nauticaldesigninc.com/fight.htm I had a conversation with the owner of Sally Anne today, hell of a nice guy. I would prefer the chair over a fighitng rocket launcher with gimbal. What do you guys think? Anybody seen a 360 with a chair?

    33 EXPRESS "SALLY ANN"

    what teaser reels do you have? are they 8" or 10"? did you bolt them through the hardtop? Also, what kind of fighting rocket launcher is that? is it a 4" base or less? Thanks!

    Electrical Question

    do larger grady's have a grounding plate built in? I have a 360... Can I run it to the fuse box in the helm directly? I read somewhere that furuno if you need to ground it to the battery, dont ground it at all.

    Electrical Question

    Hi My furuno network sounder asks for a chassis ground connection. The manual says that in fiberglass boats one shouls add a 8x10 metal plate to the bottom of the boat to get a good ground connection. Obviously I am not adding a metal plate to the bottom of the boat. The only other place I...

    Gas gage

    is there a more accurate way to measure the level of the tanks? Mine show full when the tanks are full but they show empty after using 25% of the tank. After that they show empty until the next refuel. I have the document but I have not done the diagnostic yet...

    Outriggers - Hard Top Mount vs Flybridge Release (?)

    Lee Sr outriggers can be lowered by pushing a lever on the base. they lay down perfectly at 30 seconds a piece. this is an option when you order the base (about $500). I wish they had the same option on their centerriggers...

    Outriggers Hard Top vs Side mounted

    Lee has now retractable sidemounted bases for fixed outriggers. I put them on my 360 last month. You press a lever and one of the legs telescopes in and they go lower than the hardtop. Really cool and quick to go under bridges. You dont have to mess with any halyards either. Pablo

    Pumping generator diesel on a 360?

    in order to put in the retrofit, you have to make the cutout on the transom bigger. A template is provided. The rest looks easy...

    Factory Tour

    Having gone through the factory tour myself I have to say I was shocked at the 'low tech' feel of the operation. Guys with drills and tool belts all over the place. Given the low volume of most manufacturers I am sure the capital investment in robotics is cost prohibitive to most manufacturers...

    Factory Tour

    This thread is just ridiculous!!! Wood construction has been used for centuries and most high end custom sports fishing boats are cold molded with wood structural stringers. These are $4-5M boats! Marine plywood covered in epoxy is a good building material if done properly. Are there...

    HPS error on A/C unit (360)

    OK Guys, I just spoke to the CruisAir rep. The only way to get the HPF error is overheating caused by poor water flow (or no water flow obviously). He said to try the following: 1. Turn off coolers and run A/C and make sure water is flowing. BTW, coolers by itself do need water to run...

    HPS error on A/C unit (360)

    Thanks Fisher... Yeah, I know you have to turn on both. Fish and Port coolers work just fine. Actually I stored a bunch of stuff for my trip in the Fishbox cooler and all ended up frozen stiff. It is just the A/C that does not work...

    Pumping generator diesel on a 360?

    Called Grady. Early production 2005 and 2006 shipped with 1.5 in filler opening. This fits standard diesel nozzles but not high speed. They have a retrofit for 2" filler that they are shipping to me a N/C. All new production ships with 2" filler. Nothing internally needs to change. He said that...

    Center Rigger Rigging on 330/360

    Great idea! Does it matter that the line is running almost sideways from the last eye of the rigger to the side of the boat? What kind of rigging did you do, do you have a pic?
