    Grady Drive Drain Plug?

    The drain on my Grady Drive, 228 Seafarer came in 2 plastic pieces (see pic). One piece is mounted inside the drive and the drain plug w/ washer, screws on the outside. This plug is NOT an NPT thread, it is 5/8 - 11 regular screw thread. It only can seal the drain with the rubber O ring on...

    Seafarer side window screens

    I did receive a reply for the question from GW customer service. This p/n is for a 2005 228, I imagine it is the same for a 2003. "The vendor for the cabin side window are made by POMPANETTE, LLC ( PH# 813-751-5739) and the item # is NC6525--POR—SA (port window) and the starboard side window...

    Cabin window screens

    GW does not support the older screens. I do not know the difference between the new ones and 2003 or 2005 ones, maybe they would work. I contacted Water Bonnet, since they did the windshield and heard nothing but crickets. I am looking for some also and will go back to local dealer and push...

    Seafarer side window screens

    I have been looking to replace the port and starboard side window screens on a 2005 228 Seafarer. GW does does not support this part any more. Has anyone replaced their screens lately? Looking for a vendor for replacement.

    Marlin 30 bow thruster

    I have to agree, you probably don't need a thruster w/ twins. If you decide on one and live in the Southeast / Florida, you should go with Florida Bow Thrusters and probably select Vetus. I have one on my 228 Seafarer (came with it) and makes it nice in tight areas. I was hesitant about...

    Grady Drive Drain Plug?

    Well I certainly don't consider pulling the motor and bracket as routine maintenance. The boat and bracket are in excellent shape. A leaking bracket is like a hole in your boat, but it will only fill up so much. Do you consider a hole in your boat as routine? The purpose of the hollow...

    Grady Drive Drain Plug?

    Has anyone seen any improvements in water leaks by sealing the top of the Grady drive & transom? I just bought a 2005 228G Seafarer and the Grady drive was completely full of salt water when I pulled the plastic drain plug. Could not believe there was so much water in there. I sprayed fresh...

    Yamaha dry exhaust corrosion problem

    Yes, the topic has been discussed everywhere, but YAMAHA has never published ANYTHING about it. They have kept quiet about the problem and have their gang of lawyers keeping it out of class action status. Yamaha has screwed all their customers during this problem. I just don't want to be one...

    Yamaha dry exhaust corrosion problem

    I am currently looking for another GW and have heard alot about the Yamaha dry exhaust corrosion problem on the F225 & F250 motors through the years of 2000 - 2005. If I find a 2006 GW with a 2006 Yamaha, does any one know what exact Mfgr date on the motor where it would be safe to buy...
