    release maintenance

    Thanks for the service reminder. Like anything else on a boat, if it's metal and needs to move, slide, release etc. it needs to be cleaned and lubricated!

    Horn replacement on 330 Express

    I changed mine about a year ago. I couldn't see any access from below. I worked from the top and tried to tuck the wiring in as much as possible. More wiring showing than I'd like, but working OK and I'm probably, the only one who sees the extra 1/2 inch of wire :cool:

    Marlin fresh water tank

    The leak can be anywhere in the system so don't just concentrate on the big tanks. A leaky faucet (sinks, freshwater shower and cockpit shower/wash down), loose hose clamps, head water lines, hot or cold split water hoses, etc. can be causing your problem. There's evidence of a leak somewhere...

    Dinghy Davits for 330xpress

    Unfortunately, I agree with Fishtales. I have a 330 Express in SoCal and spend some time at Catalina Island (30 miles away) for weekenders. I throw an Achilles Inflatable on my deck and have a stern mount for a Yamaha 4hp. Achilles OK as a shoreboat and for the grandkids to explore. I have...

    Lost a trim tab on 330 need replacement

    I replaced mine on a 2003 330 Express a couple of years ago - hinges started to go bad. The part numbers being referenced here are correct. I'm glad to hear that Bennett is still providing them. Also, make sure to drill a hole and install a button zinc to abate electrolysis. Also, wise to...

    33 express. Toilet seal and lewmar freezing

    I don't want to come across as a wise ass or a side-line preacher trying to embarrass someone, but I do think there is an important message in this thread for all Grady owners. I keep my 2003 Express in the water in temperate SoCal. If I haven't been able to use the boat in a few weeks, I go...

    Express 330 concerns?

    I'll be very interested to hear responses to this question. I think my boat is OK, but there has been so much discussion about this topic it makes my head spin. Many years ago, I changed the aluminum bang plate cover, that was beginning to pit, to vinyl and sealed it well; I see no indication...

    Time for repowering my 336 Canyon

    I repowered my "old"" 330 Express recently with 250 Yamaha's. I'm happy, but we're talking apples and oranges compared to your higher horsepower hull. I just hope you're able to find motors in this screwed up pandemic market!

    Yamaha f225 knocking sound

    If the motor has not had the corrosion repair kit installed, I'm not optimistic about what you're going to find. I hope I'm wrong.

    New Boat Set-up - Mechanical or Digital 150s?

    Similar experience to "Fowl Hooked" with my 330 Express, but I went digital and glad I did.

    Express 330 with 300s?

    I have a 2003. Used the 225's just as you described - I was very satisfied. I just re-powered to 4.2 L 250's - I'm a little more satisfied.

    My 330 Express Experience

    Congrats on your new purchase and your videos were fun to watch! I've had mine for 10 years and couldn't be happier. Enjoy :cool:. By the way, I get an average 1.0 mpg with my 4.2 L 250's - repowered earlier in the year. Still using the props from my old Yamaha 225's - looking to play with...

    The only better boat than a Grady is a bigger Grady and I'm going bigger

    Congrats on your new purchase. I am fortunate to have purchased an 8-year-old used 330 in 2011, trading in my Marlin 30. Everything was a lot more affordable then :cool:. I know both boats and can only say good things about them. Both of the hulls handled remarkably well for their size, and...

    Windshield Washer Knob Leak

    The back of my control knob is more accessible on my 330 Express. I had the same problem - was a loose water connection. I snugged up the water tube onto the connector and problem solved.
