I had copied this from another post,,,

Much better. They pair nicely with the JL's in my steps.

Congrats on the new ride!! The 282 is my sixfootitis boat if I'm ever able to move to the coast, although it may be hard to let my 228 go.

Right at $1200

We need overall pics!! What you've posted looks nice.

Here's my switch panel New Wire did for my 228 a few months back.

I've got same setup with my Maui Jim's as Halfhitch.

I'm a Maui Jim fan personally. I have prescription Peahi with gray lenses that have worked well for me. I started out with Costas but switched when I tried on a pair of Maui's,, never went back to Costas.

Running Simrad on my 228, been happy with it. Have the Halo 24 radar also, no issues. It's mounted on a Battlewagon pedestal with 4° down angle, no problem spotting targets.

I think he's on a different level than me. Can't compete. The dual fake hood scoops and wing on back of the cab really sets it off nicely.

I'll settle with a kinda cool kid then. I didn't want a white motor actually. The Yamaha blue goes with the Grady-White gunmetal blue in the logo, just needed the chrome letters on the motor. Here's the finished pics.

Must be age or a touch of redneck or both, but I've always liked the new Yamaha's with the chrome letters. Only way to get that from factory is with the electronic steering, which I don't have. I had my dealer order all the chrome pieces and I'm changing over myself. Should go well with my new...

My tow is 17 hours and 1,121 miles, one way. I wanted the best tires I could get, that's why I went with the Goodyear Endurance

Same with luckydude,,, love my 228.

You can always buddy boat with a friend and venture further out each time. That way you have a backup boat. As long as you know your boat and feel it's running top notch, no reason to fret. If you're not sure of it, then you're not ready to go. Again, EPIRB, handheld VHF, life jackets,,, plan...

Google Earth his address. I've seen empty lots at supposed businesses.

Has said vendor/person been vetted? Is he a real person and not a scam? You need to do due diligence to ensure they are legit. Nowadays scammers are everywhere.

As long as you have the appropriate gear, EPIRB and such,,, get out there and enjoy life. I take my 228 out further than that in the Keys, but I do have all necessary gear to do it.

That tells me the lower or both washers were bad or not tight. If lower was bad, still wouldn't leak out because of suction, no way for air to get in unless it's a combination of factors,,, bad/no washers, drain screws loose, seals bad,, all contributing factors to "completely dry". Along with...

Did you change it or did a service facility change it? Should never "just" leak out. Replace washers on LU screws? Forget the bottom washer? If seals were bad, you would have water inside instead of "completely dry". If you changed it, did you forget to refill it, it could happen. I change mine...
