Definitely call Ritchie. I was there in person today and they have a great service department.

Thanks Hookup1! GW just responded to me and said they would ship some out to me!

Hello. Has anyone sourced the rubber tophat grommets used for the full height windshields screws? I have a 2017 257 Fisherman CC, but surmise other CC models use the same. Thank you.

Hi I have a 2017 257 w/ twin 150s. I downsized from a Sailfish. For me the 271 wasn't worth the additional $90K given how I fish. I'm sure the additional ~1ft beam and the ~1500lb weight difference could provide a better ride if you are planning to be in frequent rough water and the extra 50...

Hi John, I have a 2017 257 w/ twin 150s. It is my 4th Grady over the years (i.e., 208, 268, 282) and now that my kids are older it is perfect for what I do most - fish. When comparing the 236 and 257 it came down to several factors for me: 1. Twin engine option - offshore reliability and...

Based on this schematic the 2006 282 Sailfish has 1 207g tank

Hi Iceman - My 2003 282 Sailfish had 2 tanks, a 150 and a 70g.

Ditto! Appreciate all you do behind the scenes to provide us this quality site to learn and share about something we all love!

Agree - would much rather eat the dolphin!!

Hi Russ... no snapper up here in Northeast, but striped bass fishing has been pretty good the last few weeks...

This just happened here on Saturday, north of Boston - 1st link is runaway boat, 2nd link is end result... bet he wished he was wearing his. https://boston.cbslocal.com/video/4615326-man-flown-to-hospital-after-boat-crash-in-ipswich/

After I purchase2003 282 Sailfish always had water in the front bilge. When I purchased my new to me 2003 282 Sailfish I too noticed that it always had water in the front bilge. It was enough so that once someone step up to the bow the pump would kick on. I figured it was coming from the anchor...

Congratulations!

Had a 2003 w/ twin 225s. Always thought the 250s would have been a better match, but do agree with Iceman that this is a great boat for offshore fishing and cruising with family. My only 2 complaints were the width between the 2 captain's chairs (perhaps side bench may be better spaced) and it...

@paul-A... Thanks. I will look for that on my RayMarine when I go to the boat tomorrow.

Thanks guys for all the helpful information. I appreciate this site and the insightful information posted here. @dogdoc - The boat did not have a factory charger installed when purchased... I have been considering adding one though. @seasick - Appreciate the step by step directions and clear...

Thanks! I do believe the batteries were trickled over the winter, but note taken. Will purchase a digital multimeter for sure. Appreciate the information and advice!

Thanks. Yes, when I start on “both” and then switch back to the battery bank, it does not take a charge over time. I’m afraid I don’t know what the voltage is when running on the battery - not sure the Yamaha 6YC displays a numbers, I only recall seeing a graphic.

Hoping to get some education on AGM batteries... Have a 2017 257 Fisherman w/ twin 150 Yamahas w/ 2 Deka Intimidator 8A27M AGM batteries. Last year I periodically got an error message that the sounder display voltage was too low, while at dock with engines off and when out trolling w/ 1 engine...

Gorgeous! Love the "Captain" tag!
