Bob... great advice. Red Line "claims" they are not repo's!!! They cliam they are a clearing house for boats traded in to dealers who need to unload them. In this economy you can't believe anything you read OR hear. Take a look at the other 2004 33 on Red Lines site that was sold for $129,900...

Fishie1... that's exactly what I was afraid of. Sure doesn't look like there is an easy way of installing it. Melcat... thanks for the feedback on the Birdsall... they sure look like high quality on their website. Brian... thanks for sharing the experience on the way far back troll. I...

Has anybody tried to do this? I'd like to add one or more for trolling more rods down the middle without using the overhead rod holders on the hardtop or a center rigger. Can't figure out how to get at the area behind the transom fish box. Any suggestions??? Considering these...

SB, thank you... the one that hit me was the price on the 360.... $299K is almost $100K under their msrp when they introduced the boat in 2005. Unbelieveable!!! Big problem I have would be unloading my current boat which is 4 yrs old... those first 4 yrs are major depreciation years then it...

sb... I just looked again... I didn't see the actual prices listed on "new" Grady's... just "Call for prices". Did I miss something? If they are giving 30% that is one heck of a deal.

holy cow... that's an amazing deal!!!

I know there are a lot of great deals on used boats right now.... but I'd love to know what % the average dealer is knocking off msrp for new GW's!! Grady has to be giving dealers lower cost and/or higher kickbacks so they can survive this economy. Grady, being a premier priced line for a...

Check this out.... if I could afford it I'd seriously run down there and take a hard look at it: http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/ ... inemarine& Fantastic electronics package including AP.

Hi Brian, I am thing about an EU2000I also but am trying to figure out pros/cons of getting the model with duplex 20amp outlets VS getting one with a 30amp & 20amp outlet. I read your post about using the Marinco adapter and a heavy duty extension cord and not seeing a voltage drop at your...

I agree with mega... I prefer 4, 5 max.

I also owned a 1995 268 Islander. It had a '95 Yamaha 250 which pushed it just fine for me. But I would rather have had twins for security being I used it offshore. The hull is one of the best... it could handle rough seas really well. Good luck with your decision.

Spoke to Grady White today... they will work with my dealer to fix the problem at my marina and at my convenience. You guys are right about being temperature and expansion/contraction related... Grady told me they seldom see this problem on southern boats. mronzo... I'd call Grady if I were...

On the zincs BobP hit the nail on the head... weighing them will give you a good idea of how much is left after the season. Zincs are getting pretty expensive... why throw good zincs away. On the plugs... I use to change mine regularly every season until recently. Then in 2006 one of my new...

Cummins... I'm hoping they do the same for me... based on replies above sounds like they are honoring this for any year boat that had the plastic liner. Like Legend said... when they fixed my 282 I couldn't see any indication there was ever a crack. Shockwave... sorry to hear you are going...

Well... I had this problem on my 2003 282 and being I've had the 2005 Marlin for almost 4 yrs and have been in some bad hard pounding seas I thought I escaped the problem... BAD ASSUMPTION... when I opened my boat after winter storage my ceiling liner was cracked really bad in the head with...

All of what you said is true from what I can tell. One other difference: dealer prep & delivery cost can vary and it can be significant... especially in certain geographical areas. I'm talking thousands... not tens of thousands.

Capt Chris is correct... I have also seen the published MSRP's... base boat msrp and itemized msrp's for each add-on or upgrade. Way back in the late 80's they use to put them out on the racks with the brochures. As far as a 2007 hitting an MSRP of $260K (and by the way that doesn't include...

Get a good pair of electric downriggers. I had owned and used the same pair of electric Cannon Mag 10's for over 10 yrs without a problem. Occassionally minor repairs were required due to normal wear and tear especially on the terminal clips on the cables. Can't speak for other brands... these...

Capt Chris... thanks for the info... makes me feel a little better. Amazing what greed does to the thought process of many people.

That's great news. Good to see GW being responsive in this economic environment. That will hopefully bring is some new customers and help the dealerships. I wonder if they would consider similar "customizations" within reason on other models?? GW, their dealers and all other boat...
