I’m with you. Efficiency is a nice but coming from the 360 this thing Burns about 1/2 the fuel at a higher cruise speed and lower RPM. I don’t care much about speed either. I cruise around 32-33 MPG burning about 26 GPH. I can do better if I want but that’s the sweet spot for me. I don’t...

You did. That was a sweet boat with only 75 hours on it. This is my second time with this hull. I had a 2000 Marlin at one point with twin 225 2 strokes. It’s a beast of a hull. Not very efficient (or fast) IMO but can do almost anything you ask of it. Very happy……And I downsized from a 360!

The above description about availability and years is very accurate. When I was searching for a 306 I looked at and ran with both 300’s and 350’s. The above about torque is also accurate. The 306 I looked at with 350’s were series “C” so no issue with reliability but for a variety of reasons...

Get the 306. I have one. I‘ve run a 283. Both great boats. 306 is a beast compared to the 283 though. It’ll run fine with 250’s unless you are trying to race someone. I had a 300 (Marlin) with 225’s (2 Stroke) and it was just fine. Love my 306.

I’ve had both. My 33 had twin 225’s and my 360 had trip 250’s. I’m not a fan of the 350’s and would not want it with twin 350’s. My trip 250’s cruised at .8 MPG @ 4500 RPM and 30 MPH all day regardless of load. if I was buying one today the trip 300’s would be my choice (unless buying new)...

It is real, it does work, but the effect depends on the motor. Some motors see significant increases while others are more subtle (IIRC the 250 gets a nice bump b it the 300 not so much). It will void the warranty. They are well known and widely used though. Search the internet and you will...

It could be. I have no idea where it went but if you go look at it and send me some pics I’ll be able to tell you. Pursuit makes a good boat just like Grady. I‘ve always liked the Grady’s better. The 360 is an absolute beast and mine ran great with just trip 250’s. I have never seen a...

Is your hull smooth? That looks like some kind of tape…..Shrink wrap actually….It has threads (Not real threads, but strands). Hard to tell from the pic. Is the hull smooth where you peel it off? That doesn’t look like gelcoat.

My family and I have been dealing with POE and the Leiblein family since the mid 70’s. 14 GW’s and a bunch of fun later and the place just keeps getting better and better! Mike and the POE team are a true, down to earth, honest marina who loves what they do and makes sure their customers get...

I’m 99% sure it is seawater. Easy way to tell: Check your seacocks. If one is labeled “Head” it is seawater. It must be open to use the head (And flush). There will most likely be another one that says “Head Discharge”. That is to pump overboard using the macerated where legal. You don’t...

The bang plate is the aluminum cap on the top of the transom between the engines and the fiberglass. That boat will cruise at 30 MPH at 4500 RPM all day long in real world conditions. Expect 1.1-1.2 MPG. That is a properly running boat with a clean bottom and the correct (stock) props.

I hear you…But, if you did that ;last august and ran the engines dry last week then you should check to make sure the separators are primed. don’t be fooled by some gas in the fuel bowl. I still think there is crud in one of the filters but if the separator isn’t full the engine won’t run.

You mentioned you replaced both water separators. Pull the one for the engine that is not starting and validate is is filled with fuel. If it is not, fill it with fuel and re-install. Then try cranking the engine..

A couple of questions: 1. Is your set-up oil - injected or do you mix gas/oil in the tank? (I assume oil-injected). 2. Have you checked to make sure your water separators are full of fuel? If you haven’t pulled your fuel filters on the engine and emptied them to make sure there is no crud in...

Since both engines were running and more than once it would be a coincidence for a spark problem to have developed. It could happen but….. Assume the lanyard was in properly and the kill switch is working as it should No wires damaged when you were pulling fuel lines No wires damaged when...

1. Connect a 6 gallon external tank with it’s own fuel ball/hose directly to your engines - one at a time and run them. If problem persists you have an issue with either filters or fuel pumps under the cowling. No problem running them then: 2. Change your water separators. Problem persists...

Up - assuming you are using a flush port.

It depends on what power you have but a 360 of that vintage will most likely have trip 250’s on it. It will get somewhere between .7 and .8 MPG burning 38-41 GPH at 4500 RPM and 30 MPH. Real world and load doesn’t matter in that boat. My 330 got 1.2 MPG.

I owned both. A 2003 330 and a 2006 360. The 360 is like a 330 on steroids. It is just bigger and more comfortable in every way. It is also more expensive to run and maintain - significantly. The 330 will sleep 4 easily. The 360 will sleep 4 comfortably and even 5 comfortably. The 360...
