Thanks for all the help. Best was Google Anco 52-16 and get the exact fit for like $10

I have a 2003 226 and need to replace the wiper blade. I believe it measure 16 inches or slightly less but I can't seem to find a replacement blade. All the blades now are plastic and have different mounting configurations. Any suggestions? pics attached...

He did all my cabin cushions, combing bolsters and replaced the isinglass on my windows. We even did different gauge (thickness) of isinglass depending if the window rolled up or not. His work was so good I kept rebuilding the boat. Even replaced the zippers with the same type although the...

Looks like it was the 2006 decision to cut corners...

I have a single 92 gallon tank on a 13 year old Grady 228. I have never tried to clean out the fuel tank. Is it worth it? Advisable? Or let sleeping dogs lie?

I have a 2003 228 and you are correct. The canvas snapped on both the outside and the inside.

FWIW I found an upholstery shop in Queens NY that does an incredible quality and Fair priced job. He did the seat on my Mercedes, I then brought him every cushion and combing bolsters from my 228. What impressed me the most was his ability to use original spec or better marine quality materials...

You would think this is easy but I cant find any hardware on the inside of the gunwale holding the bolsters. Any ideas??

Thanks so much. Let me know the new phone number and if you could give me his name that would be great. I went through all those junk yards last week and the roads there are like a 3rd world country. Lou

I tried to see Skillman Upholstery in Corona Queens but he's not there any longer. Some other shop bought his tel # and is in a different location. Do you have any other ideas how I can contact him???

thanks for your help. do you know if they will use marine materials like open cell foam, dryfast, etc?

Hey Seasick, thanks for the reply. You are in my area. Do you know of any shops that can do this well? I travel the tri state area for my sales job and I go everywhere....Thanks....Lou

Any idea about having these recovered? Grady does not make the replacements for my year. Thanks....

what about the noise comparisons?

I also have a 2003 Grady 228 and love the boat. It is definitely butt heavy and the main gas tank should be glassed in as far forward as possible instead of where Grady normally puts it.. The aux gas tank could go behind it but I think if 90 gallons of fuel can't get you where you want to go...

Actually the 225 or 250 is what I would be interested in. I have the old 225 4S weighing in at 685 I think. Any idea what the new ones weigh?

Has Yamaha introduced a new 4 stroke series that has the same or less weight than the comparable 2 stroke motors?

Sounds like oil pump is not moving enough oil or low pressure at idle. Could also be the sensor. Obviously check it out and report back.

Lewmar Profish 700 I have it and you have the option of freefall or power down. Try Defender in CT for best $$.

I worked on my rub rail and it came out better than great. I used Vinyl Lux solvent #355. You really have to work it in, not just wipe it down. I used a rag but maybe a scotch bright pad would have worked better. I had to rub over a 2 foot section maybe 15-20 times with a towel that was wet with...
