    226 front bilge question

    Hey guys. Took the 226 out last night and once after a gradual slow down off plane the front bilge shot out about 1/2 gallon if water. I was bow up at the time, but not more than when I get up on plane. Does the front compartment not drain into the rear bilge when the boat is now up? Also...

    Cuddy size difference between 208 and 226?

    When I was looking for a boat I was between the 208 and 226. There was scant info about cabin size difference between the two. I found a 208 and lay down in it, and did the same with the 226 I just bought. I didn't notice any huge difference. I just fit in my 226 with room for my wife beside me...

    My washdown pump runs, but doesn't pump. I haven't really tried to figure it out, but is there a shutoff on the through hull I can't find?

One question though, there is a bracket that attaches to the bow eye, but also there is a piece of threaded rod bolted to the top of that bracket, that connects somehow to the underside of the cleat on the deck. The anchor line is attached to that peice of threaded...

    See, I went from a CC to this one just because she is perpetually cold. And Living in ontario, if you cant do cold you aint boating. We went out and stayed at her parents cottage last night a half hr ride away. On the way back this morning it was apparent I made the right call. She curled up in...

    Just bought 1993 Seafarer

    Mmiela, good to hear! Since our marina is a Grady dealer, I see lots of dual consoles and CC's but almost no walk-arounds. Just not our market. But it's my market. I wanted a boat that me and the wife can do overnighters and long weekend trips on Georgian bay.

    Hello everyone. Just bought a 1993 seafarer in 6-7 out of 10 condition. Gel coat is crumbling a bit in the corners just behind the scuppers, a few gel issue son the inside, and it looks like the rub rail and the rubber trim around the windows could be replaced or redone. I dont see any sign of...
