    Grady Freedom 285 Instrument Wrap

    I wouldn't focus on the "Grady" part of it - it's just a plated (for lack of a better word) panel and that is certainly not a rarity in the industry (and other industries) Regardless, the first step is that all of the failing parts MUST be removed otherwise anything you put over top will fail...

    Grady Freedom 285 Instrument Wrap

    Anything you put on top of a "failing" surface will not survive. You HAVE to take care of the failing parts, first. In a Sea Ray cruiser that I had, years ago, I gave it a light sand to remove any loose stuff and blended the sanded area smooth. I then simply spray painted it with a black-ish...

    Waste fill

    Well, there's a whole lot of "wrong" out there! I dunno - maybe I and others that I talk with have just never been using the word "fill" since it doesn't make sense? But it sure seems like USING "fill" is a whole lot more common than I thought! Although, tecnhcially, it CAN be used as a...

    Waste fill

    It was the use of the word "fill" that was confusing since it's not really a "fill" - just wanted to double check. That's strange that your parts manual refers to it as a "fill". It's more commonly called a pump out deck plate. Parts catalogs can be wrong.... If it's easier for you to put it...

    Waste fill

    "Fill"? I think you mean the waste pump "out", correct? Just using the wrong terminology? Yes, typically the gunwale is a good place. But, you can put it anywhere that makes sense for you

    Replacement Horn Cover

    Reread what I said... I said "if". There was no accusation - just that it "reads" as a shameless plug given your first posts are about selling something. This is not an uncommon thing on forums. But, if you want to go down the road you started..... but your freakin' big boy pants on and grow up.

    OEM horn cover replacement

    Babygray... if this is something you sell, you should come right out and say it. Since you just joined this forum and this type of post is your only kind so far, it sure appears to be that. Not mentioning that part comes across as underhanded and sneaky.

    New fuel tanks - Grounding Question

    Not "overkill" at all! Yes, an AS valve is very important whether it's a mechanical or an electrical one. Even if all the fuel line is currently above the tank, there's a possibility (granted, a VERY small one) it could drop below tank level. I've read that opponents to it say it's better to...

    New fuel tanks - Grounding Question

    It's not "bad" to go bigger with wiring - but it's just not necessary, you know? Don't worry - you'll have plenty of opportunities to spend your money elsewhere :)

    What degree rod holder for bow on 306 canyon?

    Funny - there's a post in the "Tips" forum about this exact subject if you wanted to read it.

    Looking for 228 Seafarer fuel tank brackets.

    Generally speaking, PT wood vs aluminum = PT winning the fight. But since you are separating the two with a barrier you'll be fine. To expand on this... using PT wood as carpeted bunks on a pontoon trailer leads to the Al corroding. But this example keeps wet PT wood (carpet holds water) in...

    Hi Mike - it just dawned on me that I recognize your name from our emails... while I'm not on this forum for sales, I'm from Peters Marine - about that '02 we have emailed about.
