Finished result...Rick from Ocean Canvas in Brookhaven did a great job. The pics were taken after initial install- he has since tightened up two snaps. Navy Blue was the color choice

Hey guys....I have owned a few Grady's in the past with the last being a 25 Trophy Pro that I did a full restoration on. Sold that in 2016 and purchased a Formula 280SS which I absolutely loved, but realized for our needs a bowrider would be a better fit. I took advantage of the Covid...

There is a factory Bimini top that is in Ivory along with a canvas door to close off the bow section in the same color. I'll stick with Navy for the covers. And I'll address the reason for buying a DC in another post. Thanks Mustang!

Thanks so much guys...Lee said that the Sunbrella material was originally called Grady White Blue...but on the current color charts it is just plain Navy. Problem solved!

Oh- and very happy to be back in the Grady family!

Hey Mustang- thanks for the quick response. It is a 2007 Tournament 275 and is not listed in the brochure from that year. I know because I had looked it up and questioned it myself, but the story I was told by a local dealer was that it was a newer model for the year and did not make the...

Hey guys...just got back into the Grady world; purchased a 2007 Tournament 275 (non-hardtop) and am having a bow and mooring cover made. Does anyone know what color the factory canvas is (Sunbrella); NAVY, CAPTAIN NAVY, or MARINE BLUE? Thanks in advance...Bob

My wife doesn't understand why this bothers me, so I have to vent to fellow boaters!!! I keep my boat about 1/4 mile from the local launch ramp. It is a medium sized canal that is lined on either side with private residences. The ramp/park also houses our local Bay Constables (who are...

You cannot put a value on piece of mind...pull the boat and make sure your family is safe!

Holy crap! I placed the ad on CL last night at 12:15 and have received over 20 calls! The gas was taken this morning by a nice guy who is going to use it around his service center; parts washer, etc... Four months this gas has sat on the side of my house! Thanks for the idea. -Bob

I never thought of CL for the gas- I sell everything else on there! Under what category would you post it - "FREE"??? Or under the auto section. I guess I could throw a few posts up there...doesn't cost anything. Thanks for the comment. -Bob

Thanks again guys. I am taking everything in and will keep you all posted on what I find. What I need now is a place to get rid of the 60 gallons of bad gas I already have! Our town has a rubbish day where they take it...but that's another month away! Arghhhh....

Again- thanks for the input guys- greatly appreciated. BobP- I will check everything you mentioned. I do know that I am missing one of the screws on the fuel sending unit. But the rubber gasket is covering the majority of the hole. I guess every little bit counts. I am 36 and do not...

RR- I wish it was something like that...but no. It was all fresh fuel. Would tank rusting speed up the phase separation process???

I have never treated any gas during the season and never had any problems until now. The Stabil that I used was purchased new all throughout the season. I have run thus far about 120 gallons through the motors, but the majority of my boating is in the fall. My estimate of 30% water to gas...

Thanks for the input guys. To answer the questions/comments: I have been getting gas for 20 years from the same marina- as has all of my friends; and we have never had a problem. So I don't think it's that. If I didn't have the problem in the beginning of the year I would consider someone...

The tank is aluminum. I have run the boat with this setup for 4 seasons now and never had a problem like this. I could understand condensation...but gallons of it???

To make a very long story short in the beginning of the season I had to pump 60 gallons of gas from my 150 gallon tank that I would say was about 20% water. The gas looked like Snapple Iced Tea! (the boat was shrink-wrapped nice and tight for the winter, gas treated, etc.). After the tank...

Thanks for the replies guys. I will proceed accordingly :-)

So each year I spray my Lenco Stainless Trim Tabs with that high dollar spray bottom paint...and by season end each year my tabs are covered in barnacles. I also use it on my transom mount transducer and have the same problem. Any suggestions for an alternative? Regular bottom paint, anything...
