    Grady 307 owners

    I also have a 307 with twin 300's (2020). i experience the same listing that you describe. Need at least two lights on the down trim to level out when on plane. Just recently noticed that it lists when docked in its slip, similar to your photo. I just bought the boat this year, so am still...

    Engine Flush Quick Connect

    I have a 2020 Freedom 307 with the quick connect ports for the engine flush. The o-ring on the male part of the quick connect have ripped and come off of the adapter. Now water sprays all over the deck while I'm flushing, tho the flush processs still seems to work well. Any idea what size...

    Completed trip through North Channel, Canada

    That's a long way to tow a boat! Hope you have a great time on Lake Michigan. I have a friend whose family has a house in Charlevoix, and the lake and dunes in that area are so beautiful. Never made it to Mackniaw Island, but here its nice. Good way to see it from your boat. Do you need...

    Hatch hydraulic rods

    I bought replacement struts for my livewell and one other hatch from a local GW dealer. They were in stock. It was pretty easy, and they can help with defining the length.

    Pompanette Arm Rests - Free to a Good Home

    I replaced the arm rests on the Pompanette helm seat on my 2008 Grady White 282 Sailfish. These are the original arm rests (left and right). I believe these will fit many other models. The top finish is worn off the arms, that is the black areas you see in the pics. They are not ripped or...

    Ordering the perfect GW

    Personally, I like the colored hulls and would order that as an option. My 2008 GW is white, but GW White is really an offwihite, and often looks like it has a pink tint to it. Agree with most of your other adds and deletes, but I don't do overnites on the boat so don't need those related...

    Rocket Launcher with Sunshade

    Freedom, thanks for the pic! That is exactly what I would want to do. There is a pipe shop that participates in all the boat shows near me, I'll reach out to them.

    Rocket Launcher with Sunshade

    I'm looking at buying a used Freedom 307. Most of the models have the sunshade option, which I really dont want Has anyone added an after market rocket launcher to a boat with the electric sunshade? Seems like it should be doable.

    Freedom 307 - Pros & Cons

    Thanks for the replies and input. Of the Freedom 307's I have seen so far, most have the electric sunshade, but a few have rocket launchers. The rocket launchers are my preference, as I really don't need a sunshade in NJ, and the sunshade just gets in the way of any casting. I was wondering...

    Freedom 307 - Pros & Cons

    Looking ahead to my next possible boat. I am drawn to the dual consoles, and really like the extra seating up in the bow. Have looked at the Freedom 307 at the NY Boat Show and really liked it, though I would probably aim for a newer used boat (2018-2022). Shopping on line says there are...

    Sailfish Seat Upgrade From Pompanette

    Used2sail, thanks for the tip. I just reached out to a local Pompanette dealer and they are going to check on the arm rests. It looks like Pompanette's new model T2005 captain's chair is very similar to the chair o my 2008 Sailfish. Will post an update when I hear back from the dealer.

    283 vs 306 canyon

    Really? Do you ever use your boat? I tanked up this week and put over $500 of fuel into it. And that's after a few other tanks this summer, while fall fishing is still in front of us. The annual $4K sounds about right. That's the price of fishing and making trips out in the ocean, which are...
