Which brand motors and what size props are you running?

26-28kn

As a rule of thumb with the 330 and twin 300's, assume .85nm/G - 1.1nm/G depending on load.

This is, unfortunately, the 2nd biggest corrosion issue with the F225's. I had the same problem. The good news is that it can be repaired with J.B.Weld epoxy or similar and it will get you through the striper season - assuming the water spray did not get into the air intake, which based on the...

Congrats and thank you for the update! What size and pitch wheels are you turning on the 250's?

We run a lot at night and long range most if the time to the NE canyons. I suppose it took a while to get comfortable with, though i don't think one will ever get completely comfortable with it. The best advice i can offer you is start by running with your radar on during the day, particularly...

Yes, it was 45 deg ad i believe it was a 12' retractable rigger. You want the tip of the rigger to be right in line with the back of your motors +/-.

Yes, I added a center rigger to my old 265 - double rigged it and had the halyards attached to the top rod holders coming down the sides of the hard top support bars. I had a carbon fiber rigger and mount that i bought directly from Lee's Tackle.

Also wanted to add, have that lip of the transom glassed over properly and then put a cap - Grady no longer uses he aluminum , but some kind of plastic material, but have that lip glassed over. Prices for this work can vary widely depending on where you are locate of course, but a fair estimate...

Looks like you are in for transom replacement at 70% reading. Find a good reputable shop that is known for this type of work and see what they advise. I would have it rebuilt using a composite material - Coosa Board - as opposed to plywood. I would also contact Grady White directly and advise...

It''s quite a broad question you are asking with many variables and therefore just as many answers. I have quite a bit of experience on the topic (fortunately or unfortunately) and would gladly provide what feedback I can. How and by whom was the moisture detected- you, surveyor a shop? Was...

My 330 has chill plates but the entire system was replaced by the previous owner. I experienced similar issues, the thermostat would power up, but the plates and system itself were not turning on. There is a reset button on mine that is located on the internal unit which is located on the port...

I second Legend's thoughts on sticking to the plan, as the monetary implication of this problem is theoretically minor in the grander scheme of things. Is this a headache yes, but reason to abort mission? What were the motors worth to begin with...$9K with all harnesses etc. The beginning of...

I can only offer you second hand experience that was shared with me by 2 other 265 owners and that pulled their tanks and they both claimed it was a pretty straight forward job- mush easier than they expected. think reconnecting the fuel fill line on the main was the only thing that gave a bit...

Sorry, i just revisited your second post, you are affixing the hardtop with it...different story. I thought it was just accessories that were to be mounted to the hardtop.

Having now read what you intend to use it on... I would highly recommend using marine grade silicone or 4200 (at most) for those applications. 5200 is serious stuff and i have learned my lesson the very very hard way to say the least- use it on anything that you consider that you will...

Good luck with the survey and purchase! I am curious to hear back if those cruise #'s pan out. Keep us posted.

Yes, to both aft cooler and under passenger seat cooler box on my 330. Research and speak to the people at SeaFrost - https://www.seafrost.com/. great products and great people.
