When the glass is fully seated in the gasket of the window frame, the T handle will fold out of the way. The black rubber gasket gets hard and gets curves in it. The window doesn't really close all the way. Sometimes you can try lifting the glass or have someone outside help it seat. I have not...

front either.... Need a 10 ft rod to fish over motors But you can get 6 adults in the bow seating, with children on their laps, and take them thru the Point Pleasant Canal...family fun....

It sits nicely just above the begining of the incline. It doesn't hit, even without the "Stabilizer Mount". I put that right next to the cabin hatch its cut very short. I will get pix of that. If you use a Quick release plate, yours will sit even a bit higher due to thickness of release plate...

I don't think the Sea Bracket will work straight back from the pulpit. It can't put the Kraken out away from the pulpit. see yellow line. The Kraken will be partly over the pulpit (see red line). The Half Circle has to overhang with no interference to deploy the motor. (See orange line) The...

I went and looked at the Sea Brackets website. First off....$400+ o_O Looks like a good "right out of the box" solution for Center Consoles with no rails. 1/2" is better than 3/8" and they must have success with it? Mounting on gunnel or bow, you are not going to have easy access to put...

You know how you think you took a picture of something but you never did. Here’s the closest thing on my phone. I will get a better one Friday I didn’t find any other place that didn’t block the nav lights or cleats or anchor locker or anchor or cabin hatch

YES It is!

I still haven't cleaned up the life rail (I was in the Navy. "Its a Life rail not a hand rail" ) I bought SS end caps thinking it would be easy. Bought 2 sizes thinking one will fit pipe and one may fit the drop fitting. Neither worked in any place. Either to big or too small. I don't...

I prefer tightening hex head against SS rather than softer aluminum.

it is a Beckson 6" pop-out plate. (its a 6" opening so they call it 6". Do not get 8" it will be wrong) They come in a screw in type also. They come in white, beige, grey, black and clear. You can get cheaper brands also. For decks, the pop-out type are best. They don't have an indented...

They are 3/8 bolts, 1/2" hex head...and a washer... The bad sketch was to show eventual welded 3/8" verticals along the edges of the plate. The added part goes both over and under the plate(once it overhangs the pulpit) The added part can be under the Kraken all the way to the far end. The...

As I said, just doubling up the plate would be easiest but not ideal. It would raise the Kraken by another 3/8" and I would also need longer bolts thru the pulpit. And doing it now, in the water is not going to happen. I have some L bracing that I could use in the way you describe the C...

Ya, dont change the 15A breaker. Breakers protect the wire not the device. it is stranded 14 wire (because its a boat) You will need to crimp blue fork terminals on the wire.(or get an outlet that has back wire clamps) If you are mounting to the pulpit like I did, you should beef up the...

Forget the moisture meter. A 20 yo boat is "wet". You want to know if the wood is separated from the glass, if the plys are separating from each other, or if the wood is mush. The best way to see that is at holes in the boat...scuppers and motor mount bolt holes. (or bracket mounting holes)...

Wow, been a few months without NJ Fishing post. July/August/Sept saw some poor and mediocre Fluking at Axel & Sea girt reefs. Lots of "Just short" fish. Best day was mid Sept in the Manasquan river at the RR bridge on incoming tide. 7 keepers. The KRAKEN is paying off. The trolling motor, not...

There's already a 265. The best Grady ever built. :p Why would they use the same number? I don't like it. 265 Bowrider:mad:

You would cap the cold IN. You would not connect the cold IN to the hot OUT. There is no real need to cap the hot. The faucets have separate hot and cold valves so you will not get cold flowing out of hot lines. If you had a single hot/cold blend valve that would be a problem.. I replaced the...

It could be something as simple as the way your boat is sitting on the trailer

So you have a screwed down and caulked deck lid. No channel & drain. Adding a hinge to that is going to leak water to the bilge. The PO of my 265 had done that and it was not watertight. Creating a channel and drain will be exceedingly difficult to pull off. It only took Grady 50 years to...

You still have original euro-oval switches? Uuuhg. They are problems waiting to happen. https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/oval-euro-nav-anchor-dpdt-switch.25677/ https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/265-mods.25902/post-196921
