    Great Painting

    I was in a new account last week in Wilkesboro, NC and saw this picture of Murrells Inlet, SC hanging on the wall. I was looking and saw a Grady there.

    What's everybody doing on their Grady this weekend?

    My Grady is sitting on the trailer, our Surburban was wrecked last week, (no one hurt) so we can't launch our boat at Lake Greenwood. We are looking for a friend to help launch her and pull her out Monday. What are y'all doing? Don't forget what Memorial Day is all about.

    What Size Prop, 2000 Tournament OX66 225

    My 2000 Tournament 225 has an OX66 225 (on bracket) with a 19M 15 1/4 x 19 Stainless prop. When I bought the rig the prop was pretty dinged up and the prop shop said to replace instead of repairing. It ran about 5K or so RPMs but I don't remember exactly and I don't know if it is optimum...

    F250 4S on 2000 Tournament 225?

    I have a 2000 Tournament 225 with a OX66 225 on a bracket. I am thinking about a F250, just thinking. The OX66 weighs 525 lbs and the F250 608 lbs. The 2S oil will be about 25 lbs or so. What do y'all think? Too heavy? Anyone have any experience with this setup?

    I have a 2000 Tournament 225 with a 2000 OX66 225. I had it out last weekend and I switched the selector to both batteries and started it up. I usually switch to battery 1 for awhile and then to 2 to run on each battery individually. This time I left it on both for some reason and after awhile I...
