Here's what I did on my 330 and it works great. 1. On port and starboard sides of your vee berth, unscrew those 6' long teak strips (you can always re-install later). 2. On the areas there that protrude a bit mount these >>> https://tacomarine.com/sport-fishing-rod-holders-f16-2752 3...

That cockpit rocket launcher/table in Sardinia is the wrong color (pure white) and it's installed backwards. The Drawers should face forward, not aft, in my opinion. Other than that, it looks like a nice unit. I think one needs to spend time on the water to see if you like such a thing. I...

What you have there is an excellent choice and solution. The 38" width might? be a tad wide, not sure. When I bought my 2006 330 13 years ago, it had a rectangular (18' X 30") Birdsall Marine table with 4 rod holders and 2 cup holders. Like this one >>>...

I repowered my 2006 330 with DES F300's built in 2021. Using PowerTech OFS 4 blades in 16 pitch. WOT reaches 5,800 RPM's. I cruise comfortably at 28 knots 4,300-4,400 RPM's all day long. I tried a set of PowerTech OFS 4 blades in 15 pitch and didn't like them. The 15 pitch had me at...

Good luck

I've said many times, "The only boat better than a Grady-White is a bigger Grady-White" If you're contemplating smaller Vs. bigger, I say lean towards bigger. You'll save $ in the end by doing the upgrade now. I went from a 228 to a 265 and then to a 330. As I get older, I appreciate every...

"does that deck panel just sit on the lip on the vertical bulkhead behind the seat" >>> I think the answer to your question is yes. That vertical section ( sort of "L" shaped) simply slides into position there and the sides (2 or 3" on each side) should be caulked just like the horizontal...

Late Again - Excellent post + photos. Thank you. Your boat is a 1994 and your wet transom hung in there for 27 years. That alone is impressive. It also shows that wet plywood doesn't last forever. The aluminum strapping ("L" shaped brace) connecting the plywood transom to the stringers is a...

Mike - If you didn't rebuild your transom, do you think you would have had a catastrophic failure? Did you notice if your transom was flexing when standing on the lower unit or while underway? Curious. Thanks

I'll count the 265 rollover off New Jersey as catastrophic incident number two.

I'll count the above as one.

As Grady-White Owners, I know we all fret and worry about our "wet transoms". We obsess over the bang cap, and worry about wet rot, weakened transoms and the like. Of course, hired Marine Surveyors scare us with their inspection reports (rightfully so I suppose). My question here is - who on...

Regardless if the boat's transom can truly handle HP in excess of the manufacturer's spec., you will likely have a hard time insuring it. But don't take my word on this. Check with your insurance contact. I would make my decision based on that.

My answer: no. If you are light on fuel that could affect your boat while anchored. The 330 carries one ton of fuel when full.

You may have done nothing wrong. The bait will die overnight if your harbor had a Red Tide (depleted oxygen) or a high water temp.

I'm in California so please enlighten me. What exactly is killing the whales from this program? Underwater blasting? If so, can't they deploy the gear without underwater blasting?

Perfect prop you have there. 4 blade 16 pitch...

IMHO - I think it's a really bad idea to put 900 horsepower on a 2002 330. Kinda like putting a 10,000 pound boat on a trailer rated at 5,000 pounds.

Yes, Yes and Yes. Seasick (above) said it right. And FWIW, I had a 228 for years and loved it. Until I bought a 265. Loved that one too. Loved the 265 until I bought a 330. Best boat ever for me. The common thread in my boat purchases: BEAM. Go wide and you'll always be smiling!

There is alot we know and alot we don't know. Hookup said it right: "The real lesson here is you need early warning that your hull is filling up with water before it reaches the tipping point." So, one thing is for certain, we should all have High Water Alarms in our bilges. That's my advice.
