    Coil went bad on center cylinder starboard side

    Friends, Was out on my '08 225 on the Ohio River over the weekend when the F250 seemed to lose some of it's power and torque.

    What's a fair price?

    Grady Friends, Let me hear from you! What do you all think a fair price would be to pay for a brand new 2007 Sailfish w/ twin F250s, companion seat, and anchor windlass? The boat is a new leftover. It is not a demo and comes with full factory warranty on the boat and motors. Let me know what...

    Grady-Whites on the Ohio in Louisville, KY

    So far I have found three Grady-Whites including my '08 Tournament 225 on the Ohio River in Louisville. The other two are an older Seafarer 228 and a beautiful Canyon 336 w/ Twin Yamaha 350s. The Canyon must be new because I couldn't see any VHF antenna on it and aren't the 350s new this year? I...
