Looking to get my bolsters (and helm area cushions) redone. Anyone have a great experience with any companies on Long Island? Want it to look factory original. Thanks for any feedback.

Hi All, I am interested in any input you may have on your motor height and performance on the 30' Marlin. I have a (new to me)2000 30' Marlin with twin 250 2 strokes. I just picked up Mercury Rev 4 propellers and am debating my motor height for optimal performance. Currently I am in the...

Hi All, I am looking at a 1995 268 Islander with twin 150 hp Yami 2 strokes. Anyone have a set up like this or similar. What do you think about the power? I've heard mixed reviews from underpowered to overpowered. Thanks...

Looking for both an online source and a source on Long Island for parts for my Fischer-Panda diesel genset on my '06 Express. Anyone know of them? Nothing major, just maintainance items such as air filter and impeller. Thanks...geo

I have had intermittent issues with this where my power steering pump seems to stop working. the steering is extremely difficult when this happens. Has anyone had this happen to them, suggestions for a fix, is my pump starting to go? Fluid is topped off, no air in the lines, just strictly a...

Anybody replace their microwave? The Tappan that my express came with seems to have been discontinued. I can't find one with the same dimensions. Has anyone found one that has the same dimensions. Anyone know what microwave grady is using now?

Anyone have their fridge die on them and have any insight on a fix or cheap supplier? My freezer plates are getting cool, but not as cold as they should.

I am curious how easily your diesel generator starts up. I find that I have to turn it over for 15 seonds then wait a little while, then again, sometimes as many as four times before it fires up. I don't like to lay on the starter for longer than that at one time. Do you guys just keep...

Just wondering if you have a trick for this. The canvas is wider at the bottom than it is at the top so as I roll it, the zipper sticks out more and more (as if I wasn't rolling it unevenly). When I get to the top, because it is wider it does not fit well with the other canvas'. Are there any...

Has anyone added length to the freshwater hose? I have 2 on my 33 Express and would like to make at least 1 of them longer so that I can use it as a freshwater wash down and reach the entire cockpit (niether do at the moment). If so, where did you get the hose? Was it one long length or did...

Has anyone replaced the built in washdown hose on the 33 Express? Mine is spraying from everywhere but the nozzle! Where did you buy? Did you have to remove the housing for the hose to change it?

'06, 33 Express. When I raise my anchor, the rope bunches up in the "V" of the bow and prevents the windlass from retracting any more rope. Grady must have recognized this problem, as they moved the windlass further aft on later models so the rope can drop into the deeper part of the well...

Hi All, I am interested in purchasing new rear berth cushions for my '06 33. I went to my local Grady dealer who quoted me $2,500 - which is way too much for 4 rear berth cushions. I know I could get them done locally, but would prefer to buy the original equiptment at a reasonable price...

I sold the '01 Sailfish and am now the proud new owner of an '06 Express. I hope the above image worked. Been in the water for over a month now - loving it.

While cleaning the bilge in my boat, the pump did not go on automatically. I turned the switch on and it emptied the bilge, no problem. I have never worked on what appears to be a "sealed" switchbox on the newer Gradys. I have always had the old "float" style switch. How do I check the new...

Anyone have insight on how to remove the dome light mounted under the electronics box in the helm? The red courtesy bulb is not working and I would like to replace but haven't quite figured out how to do it. Also: where can I get the red bulb from? Thanks...

I was wondering what diesel additives are being used, and any results to speak of. I always use ring-free in my gas for the outboards, but have no experience with diesel fuel for the generator...

I will be taking delivery of a winterized '06 33 Express with twin F250's. I would like to know what needs to be done to the boat and motors to commission it for the spring. Should I pay the yard fee for such a thing or have it dropped in the water upon arrival? It is waxed and bottom...

I am looking for a good source to finance a used boat purchase (privately). Boat US has a 6.99% boat loan, as does my local TFCU bank. Anyone have any good experiences/sources for a loan with good rates?

I know this topic has been done to death, and I have looked at all the older posts. My specific question is: Has anyone mounted a Taco-Cuda Clamp bolt on rod holer to the back of the Sailfish hardtop piping? I am afraid that the angle or distance off of the pipe might not be great enough for...
