    Options to Protect Teak/Holly Floor

    Be careful with carpet with no passing/backing. It's abrasive and will destroy the wood finish. You can attach a non-skid to it with 3M contact cement from Home Depot. Still you need to vacuum under it often. I have a small about of carpet that I replaced this way.

    Another Grady Transom Issue

    I doubt it's a reaction. Probably excess resin. The aluminum erosion is from water. Do not put acid on it. Wire brush or grinder to clean out. Sand it out clean, fill with glass cloth and epoxy resin. Re-sand and tidy up or use epoxy fairing compound. Re-install a bang cap with 3M 5200 or 4000...

    Window Wiper Spring

    Just buy a new ANCOR arm at the auto store. That one looks shot anyway.

    ? on wiper

    NAPA has the old style "school bus" wiper. Bring it into store. You can also switch to an automotive style ANCOR wiper arm and blade. Amazon. I did mine a few times until I decided to remove them completly.

    How do I identify the fuses on my 2002 282 Sailfish?

    Get the wire colors off from the GW owners manual and look at the fuse block. Mine isn't labeled either. Sometime you have to figure these things out on a 23 year old boat!

    2011 306 Canyon: wood core in hull

    You need to replace the transom on a 2011 306 Canyon? What's up? Replaced all my above water thru hulls a few years ago when I painted the hull. I don't remember the hull being that thick. It's possible the hull sides are cored to a point but I doubt the curved bow sections are. I'll check as...

    Best family / fishing boat

    I have a 1997 268 Islander which is basically a narrow beam Sailfish. Twin F150 Yamaha's. It is the smallest GW made with an enclosed head. It is a cuddy cabin that I use primarily for fishing so the cabin is a big tackle box. The built in rod holders are great. Microwave removed and converted...

    Removing bulkhead cushion for repair

    Most GW cushions are hung on metal brackets like a picture hanger. The bottom edge on the cushion is secured with screws or snaps. Run a plastic card tucked up under that edge to feel for the hardware.

    Grady 340 Express Announced

    I know they have gyro stabilizers but they also have a trim tab like stabilizer. Wasn’t sure what that referred to. OP had several mistakes in post.

    Garmin Panoptix PS70 Transducer

    The top 1/2" of the naked transducer is metal. The threaded stem and the mounting bolts are part of it. This sits in a recess in the fairing block which is not used in my case. The lower part is the plastic transducer encasement. I did cut my fairing block but did not use any of it. Garmin...

    Garmin Panoptix PS70 Transducer

    No it's part of the transducer. The faring block has a recess in it for the transducer. In the approved mounting locations above you can see the centerline one mounts directly to the hull. The transducer is only 3" wide and my hull is reasonably flat there. I ground it out a little to flatten...

    Marlin 300 / 25'' - 30'' ?????

    I'm sure the Owner's can give you their feedback. But the factory can tell you what it was designed for.

    2004 Sailfish 282 Table and Post

    Scammers

    The is has been discussed before. Unless you can drive to the seller GG is not the place to buy. The scammers offer “impossible” to find items like hatches, hardtop, window frames, etc that haven’t been made in 20 years. Posting a GG “Wanted” is an invitation to get scammed.

    Garmin Panoptix PS70 Transducer

    I'm waiting for Garmin to come out with a competing system to the Furuno Omni for the small boats (under 40'). The PS70 is pricey but would be OK if it really worked. I don't need the bottom mapping. I'm looking for fish. Some of the comment/reviews indicated it worked for them but I'm not...

    Garmin Panoptix PS70 Transducer

    Anyone using the Garmin Panoptix PS70 Transducer on their GW boat? Been watching this scanning sonar evolution. Trying to figure out if the technology really works and if its worth the $5k.
