    3 blade Vs. 4 blade - thoughts

    I had the same setup as you, just a few years newer. Switching to a PowerTech 4 blade prop was a huge gain. The F225 lacks the midrange grunt to push our boats up and out. Changing props helped it out greatly. Get with Ken at Prop God's and tell him what you have and what you're looking for. The...

    Water coming in scuppers

    Don't take this the wrong way, but with that scum line around your boat and scuppers in the midst of that scum, I can see why they aren't sealing. You need to pull the boat and at least clean the areas around the scuppers and also the flaps. If flaps are shot, can always get new flaps.

    Possible Spun Hub PowerTech 4 Blade

    Rods are the hub per say. They surround the splined center section. They saved them and I could clearly see the ones that were damaged. I haven't run the boat yet and at this point, probably won't until the end of October for my SC trip. I'll have my Yamaha 3 blade with me incase I need to...

    Possible Spun Hub PowerTech 4 Blade

    My Yamaha dealer in Charleston replaced my rods in my PT 4 blade because I had vibration at idle speed. Haven't tried out the new rods yet, but seemed like an easy replacement.

    New flooring for new Grady

    Lucky,,,, I'd be afraid this stuff would get funky with the slime with our boys trip catfishing for a week? Otherwise, I like the idea.

    New motor Arriving: Is my Engine Mount Good?

    PO that had boat before I bought it, put a pilates ball inside then inflated it. I take it out ever so often and clean out the inside. Still using the ball.

    282 sailfish or 300 Marlin

    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.

    Sunglasses

    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.

    Looking to outfit 21' walk around ( a 218 Adventure) with electronics

    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.

    Changing things up a little.

    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.

    Changing things up a little.

    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.
