    Newport Boat Show - Prices, wow

    Certainly not news but wow, boat prices are nuts. Guess it really hits you at a place where you can see so many boats. The prices are just insane. Many exhibitors also had to borrow existing customers boats to display. Currently have a '18 Freedom 235 and looking to get into the 32-37 foot...

    Anyone with Helm Master?

    Curious to hear feedback. Would you get it again? likes/dislikes? for the docking challenged, is it really that big of a difference? Thanks.

    What size boat before it changes how you boat?

    Very subjective question i know, but curious. We currently have a 235 and as you know it's simple to operate. When we decide we want to go out, we walk down to the dock, untie it and on our way. At what size does this not happen, or it has to be a more thought out trip? how big a boat would...

    Wash down not working

    2018 F 235 wash down is not working. Put it in the water a few weeks ago. Noticed the other day the hose was not attached, figured dealer forgot something. For some reason could not get original hose attached. Turned system on, heard motor and water came out. Had some more time today and can't...

    Colored hull without water at dock?

    Debating on a color but wondering if I'll be sorry. We have no water at our community marina. Will the boat be a mess and show salt water? Opinions welcome.

    Price quote on 2018 235.

    never bought a brand new boat (I know, i Know should never buy a new boat) and MSRP seems to be plucked from the sky. Any idea if this is good, bad, terrible? This is an ordered brand new boat that will be built this winter. It also has a good bit of options; hardtop, electronics, etc...

    eyeing 235 but also looked at pursuit and edgewater

    looking at 235 Freedom so also took a look at pursuit's 23 DC as well as Edgewater 245CX. maybe it's me but there was one issue with the pursuit that eliminated it. The molding of the windshield is huge and the top of the molding is almost directly at eye level. I thought the visibility was...

    205 & 225 Freedom no longer on Grady site

    just noticed 205 and 225 no longer on Grady website. Had wondered if they would go away after 235 last year and now 215. Didn't make sense to have 19,20,21,22,23.
