    1990 Gulfstream 232 seats

    I need to replace both seat cushions on my 1990 Gulfstream. I'm sure I can get new ones made or modify some I buy off-the-shelf but if I can find the right fit I'd prefer to do that. Can someone tell me who manufactured the seats on my boat?

    Oil in 2-stroke exhaust

    I got conned into checking my neighbor's 1997 Johnson 2-stroke, 115 HP Ocean Runner. It starts right away but runs rough and spits oil out the exhaust as witnessed by my no longer white vinyl fence. It has gotten almost no use in years so I'd expect smoky exhaust but this is spitting oil...

    Gulfstream 232 Motor Bracket

    Recently pulled boat because marina removed power while they repair sea wall. At some point, after heavy rain storms, the batteries gave up and the aft was partially submerged. After pumping out transom I realized it was still sitting low in the water and found the bracket full of water...

    Motor Bracket Leaking?

    I have a Gulfstream, 23' with twin Yamaha 150s on a bracket. Last week during several days of heavy rain both of my bilge pumps quit and the boat filled with enough water to fill the bilge and put about 12" of water in the cabin. In the end there was very little damage, two waterproof fuse...

    Bennett Automatic Trim Tab Control

    I have a 1990 Grady with the Bennett ATC system. It appears that my CPU module is bad and Bennett no longer carries parts for the system. Anyone know where I might be able to find the IC 2110 CPU module?

    Outboard Motor Bracket Gel Coat

    My 1990 Grady Gulfstream has developed serious gel coat issues on the outboard motor bracket. There are a lot of cracks and chips in the gel coat. I'm pulling the boat this weekend so I want to fix the problem. Any advice? Looks like the bracket is aluminum, is there a specific primer I...

    Yamaha Tilt Motor Problem

    I have a 1990 Gulfstream 232 with twin Yamaha 150 HPDIs. My boat sat in the water for a while when I had some health issues and now I have a problem. The tilt motors on both engines are straining to raise and lower the engines. I have two batteries and two Perko switches so I've tried each...

    232 Gulfstream Aux fuel tank filling

    My aux fuel tank backs up when I try to fill it. I've made sure the vent tube is clear so that leaves the fill hose. I can push a 1" dia. hose through to the tank end, it's clear all the way but gets tight about 6 foot from the fill end. So if that's a kink it's under the deck in front of the...

    Remote control spotlight

    Anyone know of good way to mount a remote controlled spotlight forward on the rail? Most have a mounting base, is there an adaptor out there or would I be better off to make my own. Any ideas in that regard?

    232 Gulfstream Aux fuel tank

    Anyone have a problem filling 232 Gulfstream aux fuel tank? Mine acts like it's full or the inlet line is blocked. If I don't put the fuel in really really slowly it will come out the overflow. Obviously I can't see much of the fill pipe but what I can see at the tank and fill inlet look OK...

    Grady White 232 Drain

    I have a 232 Gulfstream; yesterday I was cleaning up the boat and found a through-hull drain I can't identify. It is the forward most through-hull about 8" or so above the water line on the port side. Whatever it is, it may be blocked. I tried to clear it from the outside with water pressure...

    Grady White Fuel Sending Unit

    I need a fuel sending unit for a 1990 23' Gulfstream. Anyone have a part number or know a source? I'm sure I can get a universal replacement at Boater's World or West Marine, any experience with those?

    Grady White 232 Fuel Question

    Have a fuel problem which appears to be water or crap in my main tank. Motors starve and shut down; I switch to the aux tank and it's all good. Does anyone know how the fuel lines from each tank are run? There are two lines from each tank going to the two tank selector valves. I'd like to...

    Gulfstream 232 fresh water question

    Recently bought a 1990 Grady Gulfstream 232 and love the boat. I'm working my way through a short list of issues and have hit a snag on the fresh water system. I have a couple of questions the poor copy of the manual I ordered doesn't answer. Are there 2 separate water pumps, 1 for the galley...

    Gulfstream Prop Selection

    I recently picked up a really nice 1990 232 Gulfstream and found a pair of 2001 Yamaha 150 HPDIs for it. The Yammies were on a 28' World Cat so I doubt they are a good match for my Grady. Anyone out there have this boat/power combination so I can narrow down the search for the right prop? ANy...
