This year has been tough with the wind and rain up in New England (South Shore of Boston). We have had a lot of days 20+ mph of wind from the NW, N, NE, ENE etc. Speeding up the story here...my boat got smashed up at the dock. The night of the Nor'easter high tide was 9pm-ish, wind NE 40+ mph...

I boat in the northeast (south of boston to plymouth) and am looking to do some sandbar days with my twin 5 year old boys + family. We have the spit (in scituate), browns bank, and a multitude of other boat accessible areas. Been looking into a couple of small anchors but wanted all yours...

1000 hr service completed this off season, havent asked the techs But...is there any break in period for the engine? Does the new belt the tech put on need some kind of work in hrs? Or can I just go....come the spring?! Thanks! Ian

22' Fisherman...backing into slip no issue. The fenders are annoying...either getting them out of the console and cleating before we back-in or keeping them on the cleats. I am contemplating "hull-saver" dock cushions in response to my annoyance with fenders. I guess I could always cleat the...

Can we please have a hot summer. Tight lines, Ian

Just had my bang plate replaced as the old aluminum cap was corroded. Shop said everything looked pretty good under the cap - they sealed the top with resin. Got the boat back and noticed some spider cracks around the top motor mount bolts on the transom. ***These cracks were not here before I...

Hi All, I just recently splashed my 222 the other week. I was doing a bit of cleaning/checking the bilge and noticed I have standing water in my access holes that are on the vertical part of my bow. I know its fresh water...as I tasted it :) I also noticed that below my fuel tank I can see...

Just curious but...would like to know others opinions: I see a lot of Regulators up for sale on THT, Facebook Marketplace, other forums but not nearly as many Gradys or Whalers (for the matter). Why does it seam like people are dumping...what I thought was a fantastic boat...at a very high...

My exhaust at idle does not have water coming out of it. When I am at the dock at rpm speed (revving the engine) i notice that there is water that is coming out of the exhaust. When I am underway, there is no water coming out of the exhaust. What is the norm? I think there is too much info...

Like the title states? Which one?

Hi All, I found the boat I was looking for! The elusive Fisherman. It’s an 06 with 06 250 four stroke. Very excited to get on it and start enjoying the water. It has no bottom paint...been racked it’s entire life. I have a slip that it will live in from May to October in New England. Can...

I splashed over the weekend for the season. Live and boat just south of Boston, MA Grady White 180 2001. There are a ton of Grady's around here everything from Express's to Canyon's to Freedom's. I trailer twice a year...in and out of the water. My boat "BOB" is at a slip. Takes about 30...

Does anyone know what they holes are...there are 2 of them closest to midship inside my console on the deck? They do not seem to go fully through the deck but they are a bit wet with condensation...help? Thanks, Ian

Hey All, Starting to get my 2001 180 ready for the spring season. I am wondering if I should be replacing deck plates...or the pry out lid at least. As far as I know, they are originally to my 2001 180. Recently opened the one that is directly over the fuel tank and noticed some moister in...

2001 Grady-White 180. Where can I find the center console cup holder and board right next too it? Both are broken. Anyone know the manufacturer? Thanks, Ian

My marina sold me Gearcase HD lube. Can I use this in my 130hp v4? I read on the back it’s specific for v8’s & v6’s...the regular 80w90 is for anything less than 250hp. thoughts, thanks! Ian

Hi Everyone, Does anyone know the manufacturer of the horn and assembly/grill for a 2001 Fisherman 180. It is square...the new ones are oval. Where could I find one if they arnt made anymore? Same for the cup holder on the lower end of the center console...where can I find that? Thanks in...

Hi all, Any one had any trials/tribulations with replacing the bang plate on their transom? I have an '01 180 that has the original aluminum plate on it. Nothing seems to be rotting (SP?) but my marina says they seal it up with new acrylic cap and 4200. This involves taking the engine off...

Hey Everyone, Cover is off and i'm excited to launch! I noticed 2 softspots on the bow gunwale this spring and want to try and take care of them before getting in the water. Any suggestions on fixing this? The bigger of the two sports is about 1/2 wide and the smaller of the two spots is...

Hey guys. Anyone have any advice for a small leak in center console? I noticed some water after a hard rain. Seems to be collecting on the floor but has no way to drain out. I know the caulking is old that seals the console to the rest of the deck but is this normal? Water is in the right...
