Nice upgrade, congrats! I’m looking to do the same move (2007 Seafarer to Express 330).

What year Express 330 are you getting?

What year 330 did you get and what engines? I’m in San Diego and looking to upgrade to a 330.

Lots of pictures of install if you scroll up to original post.

Dual Garmin 8610xsv. Earlier in the thread has the full bill of materials for all the electronics. Autopilot is Garmin Reactor 40 and auto trim tabs are Bennett Trim Tabs AP000A1HA AutoTrim Pro Hydraulic.

Hey guys - finally got around to taking pictures of the old canvas from my Seafarer. The back 3 drop curtain panels are essentially new as I and the previous owner never used them. The front and side panels are used but in decent shape. Selling for $500 firm plus shipping.

Highly recommend Jeff below. He is in Poway and recently did new canvas enclosure for my 228. Pretty sure he could build you a custom cover. Jeff Warren Fabricator, Pacific Coast Canvas 12528 Kirkham Ct., suite 9 Poway, California 92064 Mobile 858 776-7092 Jwarren@PacificCoastCanvas.net...

We keep our 2007 Seafarer 228 on a trailer in Carlsbad and frequently go offshore. https://www.greatgrady.com/media/2007-seafarer-228-on-trailer-at-shelter-island-san-diego-bay.403/

I have this exact trailer for my 2007 228 and it has been flawless. Came with hydraulic disc brakes on front axle. https://www.loadrite.com/spec-sheet-generation/?sheet_id=2854&sheet_model=5S-AC25T6300102LTB1 Trailer was built in 2018.

I took mine off recently from my 2007 and don't know what to do with it. Make me an offer and its yours. Have back drop curtains too that were pretty much never used. https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/seafarer-228-canvas-2007.36346/#post-254232

I went with dual Garmin 10" 8610xsv screens and autopilot. Picture below.

I'm jealous of the prices you guys paid for your canvas, though I think I ended up getting a better product. It appears you have to pay a significant "sun tax" out here in California as I paid close to $3,800 for the new canvas I had installed this year: "Three-Sided Enclosure fabricated with...

I have a full canvas enclosure available for sale from my 2007 Seafarer 228. The front and side windows definitely show their age but are still useable. The back curtains were never really used so those are in good condition. The port and starboard windows roll up. Could make for a good back...

+1 for the drains from Boat Outfitters. I tackled this project recently and it turned out great. Definitely took some work to grind and pry the old drains out and getting those old black hoses pulled off the thru hulls was super fun (no it wasn't)!
