Did anyone end up getting a template for a 228 or a price for the deck? I know KY did the swim step but wonder what the price for the cockpit/helm is.

Skunk boat knows what's up. For the ultimate fool proof system get the Blue Seas ACR and replace the switch with this one. Seems similar but important difference. But if you add the ACR follow Blue Seas wiring diagram. They have one for what you want to do. https://amzn.to/35ZcvYO Nigel Calder...

Congrats. Welcome!

Same on mine. The 10" sub has about a 9" cut out needed to it replaced the pie-plate access cover. Now I'll have to take my speaker out to replace the pump. That was the only place I could find on the boat that was acceptable to me to put the sub. No issues so far. Very tight fit to get around...

Got 4 new Skar 6.5s in my custom pods. Didn’t have to new drill holes. The back pods replaced some old Skar indoor outdoor 6.5 speakers that were huge but we’re getting rusty. You can see them in the last pic. I had to paint the grills every year. I like the new ones because they’re sealed...

Yep yep! He's got pantographic wipers on there too and really nice window from Motion in Vancouver, WA. Matches the squareness of the old Grady's like how he delete the front windows too. I think the newer rounded top caps of the 228 would need some more curves. Found the same boat on an...

I've seen lots of DIY pilot houses. Most are ugly as people get the lines wrong. This one is dialed and he's made several subtle mods that make this 87 look great. Saw it for sale in Canada last year. If I didn't have a hardtop would def get a pilot house-made! If someone could duplicate that...

User error is what usually murders batteries. Take the user out of the equation and buy an ACR.

I put the fusion 10” sub in. Fits very snuggly. Sounds great. Fusion 10" Sub - Flush mount (They didn't have the Flush version when I bought mine)

He’s talking about a halibut can you fit a butt in in there?

I use my livewell for my fish box, this all fit with room for more.

I've seen other GW copys in different hulls too. Pretty common in the boating industry. Molds get sold from manufacturer to manufacturer and that's just the legal stuff.

Here's my hatch. Still love the storage. Could put a huge Rubbermaid tub or cooler down there if you needed to for short term ice storage. I caught 3 halibut in one trip this year but none were too big for my box so in they went...

I’d be more worried about catching a big halibut then storing it! Limits only one per person and with the limited season you might just go home with one halibut and be happy. of course this means post pictures of your biggest halibut! :);)

All it takes is water getting in. I'm sure some production boats are doomed from the factory (all brands). One hole not bedded properly is all it would take. I strengthened mine with 1708 Glass and epoxy while I was painting my engine bracket and scrubbing/inspectin every inch of the transom...

There's no magic huge compartment. The existing fishboxes you've seen. No floor storage obviously but you can put in a huge floor locker (if you don't have the front aux tank option) by just cutting a hole and installing a hatch. I did it and others have too. The 228 Seafarer has a bracket and...

Saw a video on qualified captain, guy ripped transom off big grady with twins. Ran it up on a mud flat going fast. Probably had existing rot. engines seperated and flipped back 180 degrees. Euro transom. Shit happens.

I'm amazed you fit all those ducts in there. My friend had a cheap Chinese diesel heater in his 231, loves it but he doesn't have a single duct. It just blasts from under the port gunnel. Heats the cockpit fine but the vents seems next level. I'm sure your boat is a pleasure to be on during the...

Looks pro!

You can do it! Mine took an afternoon. Had same issue with gas leaking below floor.
