Was the gas you out in ethanol? I think there may be water in the tank since your motor died when getting on plane. In that case the bow is angled up and the gas and water move aft in the tank in effect making the water level deeper. Now the motor may be sucking mostly water. To check, dump...

Agreed:)

If you have three hydraulic cylinders and you probably do, are all leaking or just the trim (outer) cylinders? The center (tilt) cylinder is a bit more difficult to replace seals and would require another size pin wrench Inspect the tilt ram rods for any corrosion or gauges, etc. If they are...

are your trim/tilt pumps not working or leaking? If leaking, where are they leaking.

What are you looking for? Here is a link to a Groco bronze fitting...

My new to me 2020 non grady boat has only Forespar Marelon composite thru hull seacocks.

this might be a fit;not sure https://www.go2marine.com/Plastic-Steering-Wheel-Center-Cap-For-150-and-170-Series_2

That makes sense.

You dealer's statement about the 232 being a best seller is pure bull. Grady has discontinued the 232 due to poor sales. I have spoken multiple times over the last several years to Grady reps about the 232. By a large margin the best selling models have been mid size bow riders.

Most likely all is OK. It's important to make sure the line did not get wrapped around the prop shaft, in the space between the hub of the gear carrier housing ( like fishing line can do) On another subject, there was a post a while ago about an audible alarm when a motor stalled. In your case...

The drain fitting would most likely be bronze or maybe stainless. The screws should be stainless and bedded with 4200 or something like Life Seal

Agreed, but I believe the number is not the figure needed for classification. The displacement number you calculated changes depending on what is loaded in the vessel. The displacement classification doesn't change. Here is some info from the Yachting and Booting forum. As already put...

The weight of the loaded vessel is not the same as displacement. In simple terms, displacement is how much weight can be added to the hull without the boat taking on water and sinking . The displacement may be greater than the loaded weight calculation you mentioned. The displacement figure for...

It is unlikely that a 23 foot monohull will have a net displacement of 5 tons or more. The net tonnage is not the weight of the boat but rather similar to displacement. The manufacturer of the boat should know the tonnage. One thing that is not clear is whether a vessel with less than 5 ton net...

Overkill for the OP's boat. I doubt there is room to mount charge controllers/ battery management system. There is very little space for solar panels. Heck, it's a 20 ft 208:)

I may have been incorrect about finding the brackets. There seem to be lots of listings but more interesting is this stainless steel bracket on Amazon...

You may want to add a support pole to stop rain water from pooling. If it pools it can get very heavy and possibly rip the cover or tear it off of its mounts

OK, got it.

As long as the old one is in good shape, it's OK to reuse

It's fine.
