Thanks KY. You always go above and beyond. My dealer said call Yamaha. That’s good to me. I can’t find any information from Yamaha saying it’s been updated from 2005 to 2012 besides the exhaust issue I wonder what has changed.

Hi guys I’m thinking of purchasing this used F250 from a private seller but we’re both unsure of the year. The manufacturer date is unreadableZ I’ve done searches but post 2005 it’s confusing. Is the forward vent in the lower unit a clue? I haven't seen that on my earlier v6. model number...

I have a used Gulfstream 232/231 Swim Platform For sale. Swim Grid for Candians. Comes with all stainless steel brackets and supports needed including aftermarket kicker support arm. No ladder. I'm in Washington state, would prefer pickup but would ship. (it's long). $200 plus shipping

Is very hard to find I replaced mine last year. I got it from T&H marine. Never thought about asking the dealer that would’ve been easier.

The fuel burn was much worse per the yamaha guauge , I also was told by Ken and other people that 4 blade won't give you better fuel numbers. Isn't less slip what the 4 blade gives you? Prop slip is what your car doesn't have so it's not a perfect analogy. Less slip could me more efficiently I...

I ran aground in the dark and dinged the leading edge of my stock M17 prop. Was looking for a 4 blade spare. After trying 2 props, both way off I'm back asking if anyone has a 4blade they like or is there anything better than the 3 blade stainless M17? (it's near perfect for me). Maybe I should...

I started a thread right before you about the same thing. Ball scuppers attached to the outside would solve you issue. https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/ping-pong-ball-flow-max-scuppers.36159/#post-252490 LIke others have said it's only an issue when the fuel is full and a person is fishing in...

Thanks, best option I've seen.

I'm currently trying to solve the same issue with ping pong ball scruppers. Design flaw. Physics and gravity are pretty predictiable. Other boats I've had never did this and have more freeboard. The Seafarer needs a higher deck and higher gunnels.

Looks like Sea Choice makes some big 3" ball scuppers but they don't have the twist lock clean out feature. They would have to be screwed to remove then resealed which sounds like a pain. Plus I don't like that brand. https://amzn.to/43UXUGX The ring idea sound pretty good! I have bottom paint...

I should look for bigger, diameter ones that would be a timesaver. Not sure they exist. I got these on the closeout deal and they actually match the hull.

Great idea with the rings Dennis. I have brand new flappers, so they’re not gonna get any better than they are. They’re pretty much underwater a lot of the time because of all the weight. I may try that with the starboard rings. Definitely don’t want to drill into the bronze thru hulls in case...

Has anybody install these Flomax ping pong ball style scuppers? My issue is the Grady scuppers are a metal thru hull style that’s going to be very hard to remove. In fact, I have to drill through the flange of it if I want to install these with it there. I think they made to screw into the...

Thanks for sharing your opinion. Where are you located?

Thanks I’m definitely going to install one in my Seafarer. I just spent two nights at the coast on my friends C Dory in without his diesel heater we would’ve froze! My Grady will never have a pilothouse, but it can have heat!

232 Grady, How did you run ducts from the port side to the starboard side helm? Under the deck or in the cuddy. I'd like to do that without cutting up my deck. Got any photos of that? Also, where did you mount your heater unit, didn't see that. thanks?

Yeah, I agree with Garmin bought Navionics. I wish they had changed their charts to look exactly like Navionics. I’ve been using the app for three years and I love it. I pay 20 bucks for every year. I only use it for bottomfish season, but also armchair, navigating calculating gas burn to...

Yamaha makes one too. I used to have one. Very handy for knowing when your impeller is wearing out. They are on ebay.

It sure is a pain to mess with the livewell! But I've never had so many problems until today. I installed a 1 1/2" valve on the drain incase of failure at the dock. Anyway after replacing the 22 year old broken inlet fitting, Then twisting it after sealing it leaks. More of a problem is the 22...
