    Labor of Love 232

    I have kept my 1991 232 going all these years. I feel like I am coming to the end of my limits. She is powered by 1993 Yamaha 150's. The starboard went down yesterday, not sure yet what it was. It is almost like death by 1,000 cuts. I am soliciting some advice as I sit at the cross roads...

    Gulfstream 232 Bow / Anchor Access

    1991-2 Grady 232 I replaced the motor on my EZ Anchor puller. On the bow where the puller sits seems to be able to open towards the stern on 2 hinges mounted to the front of the boat. There are 4 large flat head screws that appear to hold the lid closed. They don't seem to loosen just spin...

    1991 232 Gulfstream Helm Modification

    Any pictures out there of Helm Modifications? I have the 232 Gulfstream and my new Chartplotter doesnt fit in the helm so I was going to mount it off to the left. I was wondering if someone out here has modified the storage compartment to accomodate a larger Plotter.

    1990 232 Gulfstream Livewell Bottom Drain

    The bottom drain in my livewell is broken. The pump came off of its mounting bracket and broke the plastic drain. I rigged it last year because I saw no reasonable way to access the fitting to replace it. Any suggestions on accessing that area to remove the broken fitting and replacing it...

    Electronics upgrade 232 Gulf Stream

    Just finished my summer trip to the keys and 3 weeks with the '90 232. This off season I want to work on upgrading the electronics. Back on '09 I posted about repowering or just keep maintaining. The suggestions were to maintain and that is what I have done, much cheaper and really just as...
