After a number of years of trouble free enjoyment, it is time to sell our Grady White Gulfstream. It was repowered in 2017 with a new 300 hp Yamaha engine. Currently 250 hours on the engine. That engine made a significant difference in the power and cruising RPM. Fuel economy ranges from 2.1 to...

I have been researching options for a new prop for our Gulfstream. In the process I was advised about how to determine if your outboard is mounted too low. See if this link will work for you: veradoclub.com/index.php?topic=137.0 If not, visit this web site link to the video...

Thanks again for sharing the information. I will order one.

Harpoon, Thanks a lot for sharing the information on the new prop performance. Looks like I definitely need to spend the bucks on the 15.75X15 prop. I will appreciate reading anything else you share on this topic. Thanks again.

Harpoon, Please post your results. I am seriously considering purchase of the 15.75 X 15 Quicksilver prop to for our 2005 F250 on a Gulfstream. The 17 on it now is OK at best. I am intrigued by the prospect of improving the sluggish take off and overall performance numbers. Thanks,

Thanks artodea for the prop thread reference. I will certainly investigate the option of a prop change before even seriously considering spending so much on re-power. Another compliment on your re-power: The color choice on the new engine sure fits the Gulfstream color / striping nicely.

Thanks for this post. I too have a 232 (2005) with single 250hp Yamaha. Can't get anywhere near the numbers you posted. Sluggish take off to plane and my thoughts of overworking the engine cruising at 4600 - 4800 rpm to get 28 - 30 mph in calm water has me considering re-power. Etec has caught...

Congratulations Woodie. I hope you are as pleased with your Gulfstream as I am with the 2005 I purchased 7 years ago. I do not have any tips to offer only a couple of observations based on my experience as a first time Grady owner. Our boat has a 250 Yamaha which has to work pretty hard to plane...

A little over a year ago I purchased a Lowrance HDS 8, Gen 2 (8 inch) combo unit. Several considerations resulted in that decision. One being budget and another being it was the maximum screen size I could fit into the storage enclosed/lockable space at the helm. I did not consider but later...

Re: Need Help with Fish Finder / Chartplotter Purchase Decis Thanks for the information folks. A couple of things I considering now based on comments here and on the Hull Truth site.. Not using the old Lowrance unit as backup and opening the pocket book a little wider to expand the equipment...

I have been reading posts on this and other sites in attempt to refine the selection of a combo fish finder/ chart plotter. Seems the more I read the more confused I become. I presently have a Lowrance LCX20C unit on the 23' Grady White (with transom mtd. transducer and separate speed wheel). I...

I do not have the tracing but sure wish I did. Recently I purchased a "after market" set of rod racks for a larger Grady (from the for sale section of this site) hoping I could make adjustments so they would fit in my 05 - 232. The tracings of the racks designed for the 232 would be a big help...

I posted this a couple of days ago in the General Discussion Forum: I experienced switch problems in this dome light on my 05 232 Gulfstream. After removing the switch I found it to be a Judco switch. I ordered the replacement switch from Judco. I believe the shipping cost more than the...

I experienced switch problems in this dome light on my 05 232 Gulfstream. After removing the switch I found it to be a Judco switch. I ordered the replacement switch from Judco. I believe the shipping cost more than the switch. Google Judco and you will get right to their web site. My...

cbserota, I sent you an email message to the address in your reply. Thanks,

I have a 2005 Gulfstream. The helm seats have the fixed arm rests and it just so happens the arm rests are fixed in such a fashion that my wide hiney is not comfortable. A 2006 Gulfstream in same marina as ours has Grady White helm seats with high backs and swing up arm rests. I sure would...

Happy Dog, I turned to this forum with a similar if not the same question a couple of weeks ago. If you have not seen the responses, you may find them helpful. They were to me. See if this will get you there: http://www.greatgrady.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8184 I too am considering the...

Thanks again for all the thoughts and experience. I probably do have a tendency toward overpower. Not so much for speed as much to ensure the power plant is not over tasked and that extra power is available when needed. I presently own a 23 Proline with 200 Yamaha 2 stroke (carb). I am...
