Spectrum color makes gel paste in Grady colors, For the size of the bottle, it is expensive but is the easiest way to patch and 'match' the gelcoat. Perfect match may not be possible if the are has faded due to the sun over the years but shadded areas may look pretty good

? Are you saying that with the flush port stored in normal operation and with the motor running in the water , there is no telltale flow? That is not normal and needs to be researched. When using the flush port, engine off and a garden hose, no telltale is common. There just isn't enough flow...

The multi piece railings are not as rigid or strong as single. A safer and maybe easier solution might be to install multiple individua; sections of grab rail. ( More fiberglass work though.

There is a Facebook video if Seakeeper n a 307 but it doesn't have a lot of info

Dear Suspicious, I noticed that but what the heck. Might be a new boater.

Was it an option for your model year? If not, installing it can be a big job. The gyro puts the hull structure under very large forces and the stringers and bulkheads need to be stronger than usual. I also thought and I could be wrong' that you can not buy and self install. You must use a...

I may have said this before but I am lazy and don't want to reread all the posts:) Carbon buildup on the plugs can have more to do with the precision oiling system on Yami 2 strokes and less on the brand of oil. First easy step is to check the oil linkage for proper adjustment. Buildup may be...

Good info here https://www.etrailer.com/faq-what-size-boat-trailer-do-i-need.aspx

Lowering the rail may be a tricky task. The job is not as simple as shortening the struts. Because of the geometry of the struts, the new spacing between struts will change. In that case you would need to relocate the stantions for the struts and that means the old holes have to be filled and...

I had to replace one side of my railing as a result of damage during Sandy. I ordered from a Grady dealer who had to order from the factory. The railing section was $600 if I remember correctly and another $500 or so for shipping. The dealer gave me the option of free shipping if I paid up front...

Sounds like a plan. Let us know how it works out,

There is not enough information to answer your question on wire gauge. I also do not understand the amplifier needs and wiring. What electronic loads do you have now and what loads will be added as opposed to 'upgraded'? Running new wiring can be quite tricky especially for the negative feed...

I think there would be a lot of interest in your shade, especially for free. ( I wouldn't list it for free to limit the amount of interest:)). The issue I am not sure about is running with the shade deployed. I believe the forward sun shade specs a speed limit to avoid damage. The sure shade...

Hopefully, a slower manufacturing pace will lead to better fit and finish which has significantly suffered from poor manufacturing standards and lower quality parts. We may see the demise of some manufacturers.

It is segmented I suspect. my 208 railing was two pieces, port and starboard The tee fittings wont fit around sharp bends. If you have a pulpit, you will most likely have joints on both sides of the pulpit rail section,

Based on the stories I have read, the new boat market has taken a significant hit after the crazy Covid/post Covid mania. A lot of folks jumped into boating kind of impulsively and soon realized that boating is expensive, not just buying but operationally, maintaining, and storing. Dealers had...

What does it tell you when twin 225s are going for two grand more than 350?

Lightly leaking head cover gaskets are not serious. On the other hand, leaking actual head to block leaking gaskets can either be or become a serious concern

You can open the throttle more than a little. half is OK It is better if you use a remote crank switch so that you can jump the starter solenoid and not need to turn on the ignition. Remove all plugs, and place them in cylinder order ( or bank order) so that you can inspect them and make notes...

I also can recommend Loadrite. Dennis is right about buying local to insure that you can get service if needed. The dealer can also help with sizing and setup.
