Very nice. Looks clean and well-equipped. By now, I would say you must have landed more than a few fish with her.

My 2002 Sailfish 282 had a "foot-rest" at the helm and companion seat side, and I have stood on each of those many many times, while working in the overhead electronics compartment. They looked just like the one in the photo, and I know they call it a foot rest, but I just dont believe that it...

Hi Rob, OK, not what I was thinking... but re the antennas, first thing that comes to mind is having two velcro strips sewn on flaps, to allow the antennas to lay outside the cover, and close the velcro under them. But, someone else may have other suggestions. I'm surprised that Fisher Canvas...

I think I know... :)

I did a 9" and a 12" on my 282 Sailfish, A 2002. I think 2 - 12's will be really tight.

I pass this along to Rob, the gentleman who bought the boat from me 2 years ago. I'm think the hours are around 240-250; not sure, I don't know what he wants for it, but we've stayed in touch, so I'll mention this post to him.

Sweet looking rig, and not too shabby weather! :)

Copied from the Yamaha Parts forum: "01-14-2015, 12:28 AM I had the same issue with my 2002 F115. The alarm only sounded when first started for the day and not every time but it did get that way. It initially took 3-4 stop/starts to clear it and then it got to more then that. Mechanics tried a...

Try changing the oil filter. Old one may be blocked and bypass not working. At least that is a quick and inexpensive check. What weight oil is in the engine? I don't knw whether the oil ports could be back-flushed (is there even such a thing?), but if you just spent $3000 for the mech-guesser...

Looks like my 2002 282, with triple axle aluminum trailer, all in excellent condition, is available but not yet listed. The gentleman who bought it from me 2 years ago, ran her on her bottom from my dock, here in lower Delaware, to Portland, Maine. He loves the boat, has had absolutely no issues...

Freedom, given your concerns, possibly the best option for your boat is to simply Buy one of these, and at the end of the day, remove the holding tank (bottom section), and take it up to the house and empty it in the toilet.

Same numbers here. I enjoyed 282 (and 252 before that) ownership for more than 20 years, and seas permitting, I always picked the best mpg sweet spot. That always was in the same 1.5-1.6 mpg, average. An amazingly comfortable and fishable boat. I still miss mine.

Replied, and nice chatting with you Joe.

I have one that I will be replacing the one on my 2012 Freedom. It is in new conditiion. I have the new (2018/19) style, sliding backrest; just need to switch them out. But the problem I see is that you are in Florida and I am in Delaware. I'd really like to sell mine locally, so I wouldn't need...

Our Delmarva Grady White Club did a factory tour past May, and we split into several groups and walked the entire facility. They encouraged us to stop and talk with any worker even while doing their job, and ask them any questions we might have. This was the 5th factory tour that my wife and I...

My 2012 Freedom 255 - home port Here she is coming back from the inlet

Are you looking for the cabin-mounted Lee wishbone style? I have a set available, that fit these.

On my last 2 GW Sailfish and previous Explorer 24, I installed down-firing speakers mounted under the gunnels. Not the same, but similar to these speakers. You could even pair up 2 under each gunnel, as I think the were 8 ohms, and the stereo amp could handle 4 to 8 ohm speakers. Just a thought.

Greg, I just had a call from my friend who has the 282 Sailfish (BTW, the engines are not 2005 F250's, they are 2007 F250's!)... I mentioned to him that you had a 265, and I think he would like to ask you some things (pro's and cons), if you would call him. I don't think I still have your cell...

Oh my gosh Greg, It's good to hear from you. And the awesome Jeep... wow, I thought you sold it a couple years ago. Interestingly, we are taking the RV to Florida in Feb, and I don't have a vehicle to tow with us, so I had actually been looking for something, just for the probably one last trip...
