My Grady came with the Pompanette helm chairs, I dont mind the actual seat and cannot justify upgrading yet. My issue is that the captains chair wobbles/rocks when running. I have the seat up one level in order to have adequate visibility. It does not rock when all the way down, but then I...

Last night I decided to fill up my fresh water tank for the first time this season, after emptying and winterizing it for the winter (I'm in NY). Filling it was taking very long, I had full hose pressure and was not getting any splash back. However I was never able to fill the tank. There...

I have a 2006 282 Sailfish with twin 225 yamahas. It has the original Seastar steering. When I lock the wheel out in either direction the steering wheel continues to rotate slowly. I am 99.9% sure there is no leak as I am not losing fluid or pressure after this happens. Anyone experience...

Over the weekend one of my hinges on the top piece of my cabin door bi-fold window broke. I honestly don't know the correct term for it. I was wondering if anyone knew where to get a replacement. Ive found very similar hinges on Boatoutfitters.com, but they do not appear to be a low of enough...

2006 Sailfish 282. The in dash breaker for my windlass recently stopped working. I am unable to find an exact replacement for the breaker (blue sea doesn’t make the 35a anymore), which is annoying being how the breaker is mounted in the dash. I was able to get a new marine 35a breaker but it is...

I have a 2006 282 Sailfish. Love the boat, but find that the helm area gets very hot in the NY summer heat (running, trolling, or drifting). Most of the time I open up the side eisenglass flaps, the angled windows, and (3) rear panels. It still gets hot, especially when running in rougher...

I have a new to me 2006 282 Sailfish. It has the complete enclosure and fishing her in NY they are very necessary. I am fully capable of rolling up the middle section but a little confused on how to roll up the back side panels. Most time when fishing i would like them out of the way, but not...

I decided to upgrade the electronics on my 2006 282 Sailfish this spring. I went with the Simrad NSS Evo3 12" MFD, 4G Radar, and Airmar B175H 1kw Transducer (3-3/4"dia drilled hole). I am having a real hard time finding a location I'm 100% confident in for the transducer. The bilge has a nice...
