    Drop-in cup holders

    I had just about given up shopping for a cup holder and decided to look around the garage for something I could modify or fabricate to fit the existing cup holes in the boat. I came across a 2" PVC pipe cap which when inverted turns out to be an almost a perfect fit....it did require just a...

    Drop-in cup holders

    I'm looking for a source for drop-in cup holders to fit the installed cup holder holes at the stern of my Overnighter. They must be not more than 2 1/2" inches OD to fit in the existing openings. I've looked around on Amazon and other places but it seems nobody makes a cup holder that small...

    Anyone add a 2nd Bilge pump in the stern of their boat?

    Thanks for all of the great tips and suggestions about bilge pump installation. I just finished installing 2 new bilge pumps in my newly acquired Overnighter. The boat is an '88 and has seen a lot of service..."well fished" is the term I use...What I initially envisioned to be a quick and...

    Installing aft bilge pump

    Thank you Dennis for the disassemble/assemble tips. I've decided to pull out the deck plate. My new pump is a Rule with detachable basket. I always buy a new bilge pump when I buy a boat... a little quirk of mine maybe, but you never know how long the existing one has been in the boat. I...

    Installing aft bilge pump

    Bought a new bilge pump for my Overnighter and am having a tough time with the installation. This is my first Grady White but I've previously owned several ProLines and a Steigercraft or two. Because of Grady's deep deadrise it's a long way to the to the bottom and almost impossible to reach...

    Changing trailer wheel size

    Thanks for the warning Bill. I decided to go with Tire-Easy although I was a bit apprehensive after your comments, and also after reading some pretty negative reviews of this outfit on-line. The new trailer tires (16.5") arrived yesterday, just 3 days after ordering (free shipping). The...

    Changing trailer wheel size

    Also received a response from LoadRite. There are apparently no design/mechanical/performance issues when reducing wheel size from 16.5 to 16.

    Changing trailer wheel size

    I have a 1988 LoadRite single axle trailer that I use to haul my 20' GW Overnighter. I'm pretty sure this is the original trailer sold with the boat when it was new. The trailer is in very good condition but tires are totally shot and need to be replaced ASAP. They are on 16.5" rims and try...
