    2021 GW Fisherman 236 Windlass Rope/Chain

    I ordered my boat back in October, so I was very happy to see it when it came in a few days ago. I'll take mine home in a week or so. I'll go fish Texas state waters for red snapper later this month. The fishing in Gavleston Bay doesn't heat up until around late April or early May, then the...

    2021 GW Fisherman 236 Windlass Rope/Chain

    Nice! When did you get yours? I still haven't officially "taken delivery" yet. Just this morning I told the dealer where I wanted the electronics installed at, which they will complete early next week,

    2021 GW Fisherman 236 Windlass Rope/Chain

    Good, that matches with what my dealer said. I will let yall know what the final outcome is in as little as 3 to 4 weeks once my new boat is rigged out. The way i understand it is that Grady installs the windlass, but the dealer installs the anchor, chain, and rope.

    2021 GW Fisherman 236 Windlass Rope/Chain

    That's different than what I was told. I too have a 236 Fisherman coming soon, hopefully in as little as 3 weeks. My dealer said he expected to get 300 feet of anchor + chain on the windlass. I will report back after rigging.

    Waiting for the shoe to drop

    I like how you quoted me :) I've used my 'two strikes' rule on more than just airplane and boating. I used to love to read airplane accident investigation reports as there was always something to learn from. Every single accident had not one single event that led to the accident, but a series...

    Prices for a New 236 Fisherman

    Luckydude, Thank you so much for assisting. I'm located in Houston and are pretty much looking at a stock 236 with the addition of the t-top, anchor/windlass, head, deluxe leaning post w/ livewell, casting platform w/ cushion and table, and ski pylon. I'm not too picky on the gel coat color. I...

    Prices for a New 236 Fisherman

    Cregeis, great news. I hope to do the same. What i'll do is counter with the same discount percentage he gave me 10 months ago on the 2021 retail price. If the dealer wants some money vs no money, maybe he'll deal. Regarding electronics, that's not something I need right away. I can get by...

    Great idea. So far I've only found one 2020 and that's in Alabama. I am working to get a quote on it.

    Prices for a New 236 Fisherman

    I've looked at the 2019 model you sent the link to, it looks very nice. That motor has 48 hours on it, which is basically nothing. I've seen other 2017-2018 236s have 200 to 300 hours on them, so this 2019 with 48 hours on it is ideal. What I may do it to counter the 152k quote on a new 236...

    Prices for a New 236 Fisherman

    I am calling all the dealers I can find. I have out-of-state family who are helping me get quotes from their local dealers. I've found that I cannot get a quote from a dealer outside my area. But considering how much money these boats are, it pays to see what others can get. I could always ask...

    Prices for a New 236 Fisherman

    Yes, the 2020 was during a major boat show which was a part of the incentive. But I also thought those incentives were always "available" should the dealer want to make a deal. I will ask if my dealer will honor the percentage discount they gave me back in January. What percentage discount...

    Prices for a New 236 Fisherman

    Different model years. The quote from January was for a 2020 whereas the quote I got yesterday was for a 2021. The "percent discount" (percentage between the retail/mspr and sale price) for the 2020 model was 17% whereas the percent discount for the 2021 model was almost 7%. I have both quotes...

    Prices for a New 236 Fisherman

    Howdy. This is my first post on this forum. My wife and I are seriously looking at a new 236 Fisherman. We just sold our 18' Boston Whaler classic Outrage. We loved that boat, but as my family grew along with no comfortable seating and effectively no stoarge, we sold it. I had that Whaler for 7...
