    What's it worth???

    My initial gut feeling is telling me $15k-$20k... of which I believe you said the previous owner was asking $13k for the boat when you were looking at potentially buying it? There's a 1984 with a hardtop on Boat Trader right now that's been on there for quite sometime, it's been repowered with a...

    Time for an electronic upgrade

    What size of screen(s) are you looking for? I'm guessing maybe twin 12" or a single 16" screen? I'm a big Garmin fan, have tried Lowrance and Furuno on other people's boats but wasn't a fan of them, the ease and simplicity of Garmin makes them my favorite option. In regard to radar, I've heard...

    Joining the list of Grady owners who have to repower or give it away…

    A couple of thoughts here... first of all would be something that obviously you don't have to tell the group, but how much money do you have into the boat currently? How much will it cost to repower? You mentioned $50k, I imagine it'll be at least that, if not maybe even $55k-$60k+ depending on...

    1988 Tournament 192

    The above comment appears to be a scam as his profile shows that he owns a Sailfish but is parting out a 192 Tournament? He's also replied to two other ads of different models asking if anyone has parts, etc.

    F/S 1995 Grady White Tournament

    Really hard to tell by only seeing pictures of the outside of the boat and not seeing the interior portions at all since it's hidden with the cover. My initial gut reaction would be in the $14k-$15k range depending on the actual condition of the boat, what's included, hours on the motor if...

    WTB 208 Adventure / 226 Seafarer

    I saw this boat when looking on Craigslist the other day, though it does have a bow pulpit to it. I don't have any affiliation with the boat. https://longisland.craigslist.org/boa/d/cutchogue-grady-white-226/7858239150.html

    Garmin GPSmap 7612 xsv Needed

    Why pay $3k for the 7612xsv, which is an outdated unit, when you can get a refurbished 8612xsv for $250 less? Looks like it's a direct from Garmin refurbished unit that also comes with the manufacturers warranty. ;) https://gaugesaver.com/product/garmin-8612xsv-refurbished/

    Garmin GPSmap 7612 xsv Needed

    I got one right? Always a first time for everything!

    208 Adventure washdown pump issue

    Have you tried replacing the circuit breaker/fuse for the wash down pump and see if that solves the problem? I'm admittedly no expert in regard to marine electronics, that being said it seems like anytime where I've had an issue in my house of a breaker tripping several times back to back, it...

    Purcahsing a 1998 G-W Adventrue 20'

    1997 is yes I believe the year that they went away from using standard marine grade plywood and instead went to a product called Greenwood XL.The transom's of these boats can still have the issue though depending on the condition, how much water intrusion there is and so forth... so it's not a...

    2007 Gulfstream 232 Yamaha F250 stalled while trolling and cruising

    As mentioned... bubbles in the fuel would make me think air is getting in through the fuel lines. My uncle's boat had a similar issue years ago where the fuel lines had pinhole leaks in them and would stall the engines as well. Replacing the fuel lines was the golden ticket and ended up...

    Puget Sound salmon fishing season

    Nice! Which area are you fishing in? The biggest one we got this year was just under 34" and probably 17-18 lbs or so.

    Opinions Please on Boat Purchase

    When you say the boat as repaired, was it just the crack or was the entire transom repaired/replaced? Depending on what all was done and how much damage occurred, that could make for some pretty costly issues down the road. Also, what do you mean by every option possible? As in it comes with a...

    Opinions Please on Boat Purchase

    I know nothing about the boat other than what you mentioned and hope that it isn't another forum member's boat as I don't wish to "bash" their listing. That being said, I imagine the reason why it's been for sale for awhile now is because of the price. The one good thing about the boat is that...

    Fisherman 222 CC Performance

    Sounds like you've got the wrong propeller on there then, or something else is quite off. It's not exactly an apples to apples comparison but I've got a 2004 Grady White 228 Seafarer with a 2004 Yamaha F225 on it, of which the performance bulletin says she'll do a top speed of 44.6 mph @ 6,100...

    Grady Marlin

    They added Google ads back several months ago and yes they were quite infuriating to where it would bog down/take up the entirety of the site/screen. That being said, if you donate to the site, the admins will turn off the ads, which I believe the minimum to donate is $10...
