    Broken driver side panel

    Ok I'll give it my best guess as far as advice goes on this as I'm not great with fabrication work. If it were me and my limited fiberglass skills, I would take some kind of bendable material (cardboard, plastic sheet etc) and get it behind that hole and taped down as best you can. Then I would...

    Cabin window leak

    Hey congrats on the new boat! Do a quick search in the search bar "cabin leak" and there's a few threads that should pop up. I haven't gotten around to fixing mine yet, but if I recall when researching it you had to remove the exterior trim and seal and clean everything out and replace the seal...

    Helm seats

    I think those lebrocs are nice, but I honestly like having the armrest, also those lebrocs are out of my price range. I figure for $450 I can have armrest, flip up leaning post style, and front/rear flip position. My only concern is if it'll bolt directly into the existing seat bracket?

    Enclosure aluminum rivets?

    Thank you for the advice and info!. I just purchased this one that comes with aluminum rivets of all sizes. Worsted case scenario I open up the hole a bit to fit the rivet size.

    Enclosure aluminum rivets?

    There were definitely rivets there beforehand. Not sure how they popped out but two of them did and noticed my portside vinyl flopping around up top. I've pretty handy but never used a rivet gun, let alone one for aluminum? Any pointers are appreciated.

    Enclosure aluminum rivets?

    I have a 282 sailfish and while doing maintenance I noticed 2 of the "rivets" that hold the track for the vinyl enclosure had popped or broke off from the aluminum hardtop piping. Anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

    Electronics 101

    Furuno just did a series of videos that best describes the differences in each of the latest and greatest models from 4 major brands. I believe there's 6 videos out now and are an easy series to watch. Granted they are a bit furuno biased, but it gives you a good idea of each brand. Just Google...

    Thru-hull scupper on 282

    Ok the dealer nearest me is totally incompetent at least in their parts dept. They couldn't find the part number in their system. I called another dealer further away and they were able to look up the parts with no issues so I'm ordering with them. Thank you for everyone helping out here.

    Thru-hull scupper on 282

    And not to ramble but here was the response from Grady earlier as well:. Here’s the thru hull fitting chart that shows the locations and the part #’s. The scuppers GW part # 11-463 are made by PERKO, INC. (ph#305-621-7525) and their item # is 377 A08 CHR SHORT SCUPPER. This fitting is obsolete...

    Thru-hull scupper on 282

    Definitely going with bronze. Ky thanks for that chart, extremely helpful. I put a call into the local dealer, used that part# 11-657, and they are going to call me back after they confirm it's the correct fit. I told them about the old vs new part# and that they should be similar, but they just...

    Thru-hull scupper on 282

    Ky, I googled the part # and all I could find is a Grady parts catalog from 2007 referencing that part number as the correct part (short scupper). Who is the manufacturer of part #???

    Thru-hull scupper on 282

    These are thru Hull scuppers that exit the side of the boat, not transom. They connect to the deck drains. I may just calling them tomorrow and see if I can get an answer on it. I hate calling usually because I know those guys over there are always busy and figured email is the easiest on them.

    Thru-hull scupper on 282

    Thank you for the replies. Seasick, not sure if mine has the flapper, to be honest never noticed if it did or didn't. Ky, thanks any help is appreciated. I emailed Grady but I think they're a bit delayed over there lately, so hoping to order these soon.
