    Smoky, I love your reference to Dirty Dancing. lol. I can see Max Kellerman now, " it all seems to be changing, now people want four outboards and a bowrider. it all seems to be slipping away."

    Thank you for the reply. I think this is the way I'm going to go. I had a fusion system on my old Wellcraft and thought it was awesome. You talked me into another one!

    Rusty, I am also thinking of replacing the sound system on my boat, and I like the Fusion head units. I would be interested in knowing more about the amps and speakers.

    WTB Grady White 265 , 282 or 300.

    I needed a boat that was fish capable, yet could also spend a day at the sandbar with the wife and kids. The 265 fits the bill. I love the center helm; I like the "shoulder room" that you get by not having the walkaround set up, and there is more area for passengers to be sheltered by the hard...

    WTB Grady White 265 , 282 or 300.

    Good luck with your search. I looked for 5 years until I found the perfect one for me. After having it for 1 season, I can say that it was definitely worth the hunt. I absolutely love this boat!

    2001 HPDI Fuel Management System

    Thank you for the reply. I have it narrowed down to the port engine. With the starboard engine off, I get no fuel consumption reading. The system is not recognizing input from the port engine. A friend told me he had similar problems and it turned out to be a corroded connector at the sensor...

    Looking at a 2005 185 Tournament - hull damage question

    Looks like just a little bit of trailer rash. It is more evident because the hull is not painted, but to me it doesn't look like anything concerning.

    2001 HPDI Fuel Management System

    Hello all. I was running the boat this weekend and noticed that the fuel management system for my 2001 200 hp HPDI's was only totalling fuel consumption for 1 motor. When operating normally, in the "Econ" mode, it will display a "P" and and "S", indicating it is tallying both port and starboard...

    WTB Grady White 265

    I still have the v-21. I love it. I also had a v-20 before the v-21. In my opinion, and it may just be in my head, I felt that the v-20 rode a little better. I think the extra foot or so that the built in bracket of the v-21 puts the motor aft affects the weight distribution a little bit. The...

    Thank you for the reply. I see from your avatar picture the grab rail you describe. I was thinking of that exact addition, it really was the only idea I could come up with. Glad to hear that it works, thank you! I hope my wife likes it!

    WTB Grady White 265

    Hello all. As the OP I figured I'd come back and give everyone an update. I purchased my 265 at Oyster Cove Boatworks in Gloucester, Virginia. I have nothing but positive to say about them; they made the difficulties of purchasing a boat from 350 miles away not so difficult after all. Cori...

    265 Express Fuel Fill Question

    Hello all, Still trying to figure out my new to me 265 Express. So far I love it. I have a question to all of the experts out there. The fuel fill labels are faded away on my boat and unreadable. I recently put fuel in what I assumed was the main tank, as it was the forward fill cap, however, I...

    Thank you for the information everyone. I am in the process of closing on a 265 that I located in Virginia. I look forward to being able to contribute to this site as I have learned so much from reading all of your posts. I especially have learned a lot from Skunkboat, as I currently have a...
