Thanks for all who replied. My pull off where I store my boat is pitched jusy enough to not allow me to have it all the way down. After reading your posts I decided to grade it enough to have it in the down posistion. thanks again Bob

I'm getting ready to lay my 228 up for the winter. Would it create any problems to keep my motor (250 Yamaha) in in up position for the winter?

Thanks Jim, I was hoping that is was something simple. Printing it out and heading down to the boat. :D

First trip of the season yesterday. My boat is a year old and the trim tab indicators are blinking back and forth port to starboard when trying to trim and keep blinking. Does anyone know what this??

They were nicknamed Hydrosplit because of the hulls splitting

It's your trim tabs, last for 15 to 20 seconds reguardless if the tabs are use or not

I'm getting ready to bottom paint my 2009 Grady 228. I'm thinking of using Pettit Hydrocoat. Any thoughts or comments on the product?

Prices are gone of the web and site re-designed. Hmmmmmmmm!

Well that didn't last long . Checking out Baert Marines web site all pricing was removed and site re- designed. Looks like they got their hand slapped by Grady. I really don't believe that they had all those boats in stock that they were advertising.

Take a look at the profit margin that Grady White and dealers are making on their boats. I thought I cut a pretty good deal but looks as though there's alot more money I could've saved. Go to www.baertmarine.com and check out there inventory blow out sale. Bet you never will see these pices...

So basically the same as I've been doing with my old 175 2 stroke. Just want to make sure . thanks

What is recommended for a additive for the yamaha 4 strokes. I have read that a lot of people use Startron. Anything else I should be using?

WHEN I CALLED MY DEALER YESTERDAY THEY TOLD ME THE 20 HOUR CHECK UP ALONG WITH THE OIL CHANGE IS NO CHARGE TO ANY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS THAT ARE WITHIN 20 MILES FROM THEM. HOW SWEET IS THAT!!!!!!!!!! AFTER THAT IT'S ALL ON ME :D

Time coming up for the first oil change. What should I expect for a reasonable price. :?:

I had a 1999 209 with a 175 and never felt underpowred. Your probably going 4 storke I'd go with the 200.

Just a FYI had dealer come out to my slip to see if they could find problem. It was a loose connection from the intake line not tighten from factory.

Spoke to a couple of people today and they tend to think it's air lock and can be fixed by pouring water down the line to pump to get it prmed.

This is the raw water washdown. The seacock is open. I'm getting alot of air and some water. I ran it for 2 to 3 minutes. I'll try again and run it longer and see if helps.

Ok boats finally in the water , everything went great! Tonight went down and tried the washdown and all I get is a lot of air and a occasional stream of water then back to spitting air and water. Bad pump or am I doing somethin wrong. :?:

My new 228 slids into the slip on Friday :D.Whats the best product to keep up with the aluminum keeping it looking like new. I know some products can remove the anodized finish. I want to keep ahead of any possible pitting. Thanks I'll send pics as soon as I get them.
