    Aft Bilge not Working

    Thanks Skunk! I dont think its clogged as it makes no noise at all when I switch it and worked before I put her away for winter. Looks like getting down there is a must. Damn.

    Aft Bilge not Working

    Thanks for the reply Hook! I already reached down and engaged the float switch which is how I know it is not working from both the helm and the hard wire. I tried to trace the wire and could not find the fuse but even if that fuse is bad it should work from the helm as the circuit breakers in my...

    Aft Bilge not Working

    Hey Guys, My aft bilge is not working. It will not run either with the switch on manually or when I reach down and flip the float switch. My boat is a 2008 232 with twin 150s. Any suggestions?

    Why are Grady's so popular in eastern Long Island and what is it like in your area?

    I know I love my Gulfstream and although I considered a Robalo, Steiger or Parker I was never going to buy anything other than my 232. I wanted Twins, something that was Ocean worthy and had positive flotation. Gulfstream was the answer for sure. What I wonder is why Grady White is so dominant...

    Small Offshore Comparison’s

    I would say 208. Walkarounds shed water over the bow better than open front boats.

    Raccoons chewed thru the shrink wrap!

    That sucks Fat. I am in Suffolk on the east end and just had the glass in my canvas replaced on my Gulfstream by these guys. Did a nice job at a reasonable cost. They do upholstery as well but cant vouch for the quality for that. http://hoeyscustomcanvas.com

    Cost to replace the eisenglass on my cockpit enclosure?

    Cost me $900. I have 2 panels each side, 2 windsheild panels and 3 back panels. The main back panel and one of the smaller panels had been replaced before I bought her so i did not need those. Have zippers in the glass on the 2 main sides which they also replaced. Should be ready mid week. Its...

    Gulfstream owner's what size props do you run?

    I have a bent prop and am going to fix or replace it. If I do go the replacement route does anyone know what size prop came on a 2008 Gulfstream 232 with twin Yamaha F150s? Also did anyone re prop with a different size and did you get a better performance or fuel efficiency? Thanks for your advise.

    Cost to replace the eisenglass on my cockpit enclosure?

    I am wondering the same Seasick. By my measurements I would need 2 54 x 110 inch rolls for this job. The back window was replaced just before I bought the boat so I don't need that one. Strataglass would be about $250 a roll and Crystal clear $160. Dont know what the labor would cost but I cant...

    Anyone set up a 228 for salmon fishing?

    hey Lite do you happen to know what size backing plate fits the rod holders on my 2008 232? This looks like a good idea to support my DR without drilling in a new plate. Dont know why this would not be just as sturdy as drilling in the base with a backing plate.

    Anyone set up a 228 for salmon fishing?

    Sorry to threadjack. I bought 2 manual Cannon Uni-troll 10 downriggers with 12 pound balls. I also bought the gimbal mounts. I am intending to use them to troll bunker spoons (got bungies), unweighted shad imitators, tube and worm setups and umbrella rigs for stripers because I hate wireline...

    Cost to replace the eisenglass on my cockpit enclosure?

    Sorry to be unclear. Just the plastic. Canvas is fine. I have a couple requests out for quotes locally but just trying to find out what others have paid.

    Cost to replace the eisenglass on my cockpit enclosure?

    To everyone who has replaced the eisenglass on their cockpit enclosures, I am wondering what you paid? Mine are all cracking. Bought her used and only the back panel had been replaced in 12 years as far as I can see on the records. Its cold here in the northeast. Gonna have to bite the bullet...
