I am hoping to visit while my boat is being built. I am not sure how long it actually takes start to finish. 4 weeks, 6 weeks or longer? Assume the line is pretty busy this time of year so I am sure I will see all of the various steps and phases. Looking forward to it.

I did mention a tour to my dealer and he was more than happy to help me schedule it. I purchased my boat from Cataumet Boats on Cape Cod. Great dealership and highly recommended. I am going to do the tour for sure and planning it now. Thanks!

A quick update. I traveled down to the Miami boat show a couple of weeks ago to board the 325 before I committed to the purchase. The Freedom 325 is a fantastic boat, but it didn't feel like enough of a difference between my 255 other than its larger size. However, the 335 was a significantly...

Thanks Toddwein for your insight and feedback. Its clear that the F300s are the way to go. As for the Helm Master, well it sounds like it has the potential to help in docking situations and Ill likely get some use while fishing as I drift and fish many rips in the area - so I will move forward...

Congrats on your Freedom 275! You fishing, recreation or both?

Consistent feedback here on the thread and from others I've spoken to recently. I am going to go with the F300s.

Hey Halfhitch - I've spoken to a couple of other people and they also point out that backwash while maneuvering in a marina can lead one to be fighting the very system you are using to dock. I suspect that with a bow thruster and some decent seamanship that I can manage without the system. That...

I have owned a Freedom 255 for the last 4 years and now feel that the time is right for a bigger rig. I really appreciate the dual console design as it works for fishing and recreation. So, I have been leaning towards a Freedom 325 as I believe it would enable new missions ( offshore, fishing...

I own a 2015 GW Freedom 255 w/ hardtop. Anodized not painted. I want to add (4) rod holders (2 ea. side) of the rear hardtop poles. The tube diameter is 2" (1.91 inch) from what I can tell. I need the rod holders to be angled a bit as the hardtop extends 6-8" past the poles. Does anyone...

I did measure the circumference and it was 6". So, it comes out to 1.91. Can I buy clamp on rod holders that big?

I'd like to mount several rod holders and I am wondering if anyone knows what size piping is used on GWs. It seems to be larger than 1-1/4" Schedule 40 Aluminum pipe.

Since I have a single engine I imagine its best for me not to mount on the centerline. Appreciate the heads up.

I just purchased a 255 Freedom and plan to install a Garmin 7610xsv w/ DownVu/SideVu transducer (GT50M-TH). Does anyone know if I can have the transducer installed on or very close to the center line of the boat? If not, I will need to purchase the - THP which is a thru-hull pair which will...

Thanks Journeyman. I was going to buy a couple of 6'6" rods so I might be ok. I am not close to the marina where I bought the boat so appreciate the reply.

Just purchased a 255 Freedom and was wondering if anyone knows how long a rod I can place in the gunnel rod holders.
