    Back in the Grady world! New to me 2007 275 Tournament

    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...

    Some people are unreal !!!!!

    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...

    Need Help!

    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...

    1983 Trophy Transom Replacement- YES WORMS!!!

    I have tackled alot of small fiberglass projects in the past but nothing of this size. I decided to cut the rear skin off and go from the outside in- it seemed to be less work than cutting the cap. Here was the sequence of events for the transom: -cut the skin (fell right off) -clean...

    1983 Trophy Helm Restoration

    As you will see from the first pic there was a ton of what I thought unnecessary items on the dash. I filled a whole bunch of holes first by plugging them with wood and sealing the holes with glass. This was done by scarfing the existing edges and overlapping 1 1/2 oz matting, and finished...

    1983 25 Trophy Restoration...

    I picked up a well worn 25' trophy 3 years ago thinking it would be a quick fix. Well 3 years later it turned into a complete restoration. The boat was stripped of absolutely everything and rebuilt from bow to stern. Everything on the boat needed attention, and I mean everything! I will...

    25 Trophy twin 150's GPS numbers:

    Hello all...I finally finished up a 3 year restoration on my 25 TrophyPro and splashed her about a month ago. (If time permits I will start a thread on the restoration.) However I did want to know the performance with the 150's. I have read that the boat is underpowered with only 150's but I...

    Decal Replacement

    I am looking to upgrade the old Grady White logo on the sides of my 25 trophy to the newer style. Should I call the factory direct or can a local dealer supply them? Thanks in advance....Bob[/b]

    Trim Tab Size on 25 Trophy?

    Before recoring my transom I measured my tabs and believe they were 12 x 18. (I scrapped them as they were shot). Can I go with a smaller tab like 9 x 18 or should I stay with the original size? Thanks in advance...Bob
