    Anchor Locker Clip

    I have the same problem with my 248 Voyager. That plastic friction latch just doesn't cut it. I don't have a lift knob, and I don't want to drill a hole in the top for a lift knob similar to the stern trash cover because the bow gets a lot of water. And the lift knob does not keep the lid...

    New Seat Cushions

    I have a 1999 Voyager 248, and I think its about time I replace the helm seat cushions. I ordered the Wise WD562 cushions, and we'll see how they fit. They look to me to be a direct replacement, and I believe Wise is the origial cushion supplier to Grady at that time, so...I'm keeping my...

    Voyager 248

    I have a 250 Yamaha OX66 on my 1999 Voyager. It won't win many races, but I have enough power. When I originally bought the boat new, I had a little trouble getting up out of the hole onto a plane with the supplied prop. My marina set me up with a different prop pitch and it gets up a lot...

    Mounting a kicker moter on a 1998 Sailfish 272

    I had my Grady dealer install a "recommended" bracket on my 1999 Voyager 248. There's plenty of room for my 9.9 kicker and it looks nice. The heavy duty pull down brackets sold on the secondary markets don't fit or work well. Mine is a stationary ss bracket.

    Auxillary on a 208

    9.9 is fine I'm not sure how the extra weight will affect the safety/performance, but a 9.9 with a push prop is plenty of propulsion for the boat. I have the Voyager 248, and my 9.9 Yamaha moves my boat just fine.
