    another new grady owner

    I have had dealings with Taylor Marine both in person in Milford and via the internet. You have dealt with a first class dealer, I have nothing but good to say about Taylor. I wish you many happy hours on your Grady. I am on my third and wouldn't have anything else. B8CASTR.

    180 Sportsman drop in boxes

    Okay, I get the message. I will contact my son tomorrow and see if he can take/post pictures. He's in CA and I'm in NJ so it'll be his duty. Like I said earlier, I want to help anyone I can so if pics do the job we'll do our best ASAP.

    180 Sportsman drop in boxes

    Judging by the lack of replies this is not an easy item to find. However, I made two and they fit perfectly; they are for my son's boat and he loves them. In case anyone wants to make their own drop in boxes for a 180 Sportsman, or any other model, here's how I did it: I went to a hobby...

    180 Sportsman drop in boxes

    The openings under the rear seats on the 180 are just two big holes. Other Grady models offer removable drop in boxes that add alot of great storage but Grady doesn't offer them for this model. Has anyone found something that they use for this purpose?

    22' Seafarer motor dam/back splash

    As stated above you can easily make one if you are reasonably handy with woodworking tools. Use King Marine Starboard; the spalsh guard is composed of three pieces, two catches and one ss piano hinge. I also could make a template for you but knowing the excellent results I've had with Grady...

    anchor line - twisted

    Something that will help prevent the twist is at the beginning of the season take your line and soak it in water to which fabric softener has been added. Let it soak for abot 24 hours, remove it, lay it out to dry and then replace it in your locker. Helps to keep ypur line more supple.
