I wonder what your wives would think about these posts. If the Admiral was aware that you lovingly cherish your GreatGrady anniversary date, you may not be getting any for a while. :D But then again, that would mean more time with the Grady. Hmmmmm.

Re: Marlin 300 - Evinrude G2 repower Good point, sailfish. I have not seen one in person, let alone seen one on the back of a Grady. I have a Grady Tournament, so I would love to see one of these in white hung on the back of a Tournament or Freedom. You know how some are resistant to...

Re: Marlin 300 - Evinrude G2 repower Do they have it in all white. Maybe that would help me a bit.

Re: Marlin 300 - Evinrude G2 repower Love Evinrude, gents. I own a circa 94 ocean pro 200 and have owned the brand for decades. But this robo cop looking outboard I can't deal with. Looks like it belongs on a bass boat, not a Grady. Looks Nascar to me. Sorry! Even if it is the best...

NC DOT won't do a darn thing in terms of fixing the damage. Been through that with a moving truck I rented and an improperly marked bridge in Durham, NC. Insurance fortunately covered the damage. DOT cared about it so much that the bridge remains improperly marked - 5 plus years later...

18 cents a gallon in tax does not fully account for what we are taxed. The average fed and state tax is approximately 48 cents a gallon. In my home state, it totals 56 cents in tax. Also, that 18 cents in federal tax generates about 34 Billion annually. Unfortunately, only 60 percent of...

The low gas prices are obviously great. Huge difference at the pump in North Carolina. I think the problem is, we all know it wont last. Also troubling is the fact that they are pushing to raise the amount in tax we pay per gallon. Anyway, I have a 200 hp v6 looper that loves the juice. I...

That ain't no chip in the gelcoat. I hope nobody was injured. I assume this did not happen while trailering the boat since the trailer appears undamaged, right? I hate this for them. Bummer.

You are not a good salesman! From your description of the boat and the known issues spotted by the surveyor, I would walk - or run. There are simply too many great deals out there in terms of used Grady's that would not have these issues. You may shoot for a hull from the later 90s. I...

I will have to agree with suzukidave on this one. But if you do, I would steer away from Marsha Grady. The reason being, I assume you will keep the Grady White logo at the stern. With the Grady name already on the boat, I think Marsha Grady May be a bit awkward. Just my 2c. Enjoy the new...

Not a problem. Glad they worked out for you!

I have used the MyWedge on my rig for 3 seasons now. I love it and have no complaints. It is so simple to use. I have a 200 hp Evinrude Ocean Pro on the back of a 192 Tournament. No indication of stress from using the Wedge. I don't think I would use anything else at this point. When I...

This reminds me of my 1993 Mako. The windshield frame came from the factory black. Don't know if it was powder coated or painted. Probably painted back then. Anyway, I think the look is sleek. My question would be how well does it hold up. Will it fade after 5 years in the sun ? My...

Do a google search for Garzon Studios. He can make an exact copy of any Grady logo you want and he will email you a proof of the logo before he prints them. I had my 1994 Tournament logos done by him and they were exact copies of original logo. I was so impressed, I had him make custom...

X2 on what Bill said. Dennis consistently helps folks with all kinds of issues. He has helped me many times, and I truly appreciate the advice and tips. Many thanks to Dennis!!

I am also a fan of going back to teak. Have a 1994 tournament 192 where the duratrim was shot. Thought about the starboard but didn't like the idea of bowing with temp changes. The teak looks great. My 192 doesn't gave too much trim, so I like the look.

YES. :D

As others have noted, get a 1994 or newer model so you have the benefit of the Sea V2 hull. Also, I would recommend a 200 hp (2 stroke) on this hull. I am NOT a hell raiser, as I have 3 kids under 10. I have a 200 hp Evinrude Ocean Pro on my 192 Tournament and it is powered just right. I...

Re: Soft top & canvas for 'Vintage' 84 252 Sailfish - No A&J I agree with fishbust on this one. You will need to have a local shop custom make what you need. I went through this on a 1994 Grady and finally gave up and just took it to a local place that did boat cushions, etc... Was pleased...

Get the Spectrum gelcoat repair kit. Very easy repair. Do a YouTube search for videos on the process. Super simple. You will also need very fine sandpaper and some light compound and wax to blend it all in. Good luck!
