I really like Shimano reels. I think SPHEROS 6000 should do what you need. It has a waterproof drag system and is as tough as they come.

Nice job!

I compounded my boat and there is a bit if compound from glancing on the rub rail. What do you guys use to get it off? This stuff is pretty defiant and not coming off very easily. I was using 3M buffing compound and I orbital buffing pad. I also got a bit on my bottom paint. I had it taped but...

That boat was at 15 or 20k a few weeks ago on ebay. I agree, it is a bunch of work and $$$$$. Hard to take on a project like that. :bang

^^^^hmmm that's a good tip!

I used the Clorox Cleanup a couple of times with decent results. It still could not get the deep stuff, but did take the majority away. I may try the Nine if I see it in the stores. I don't have a pressure washer, but may be able to swindle a friend for a loaner!

I already got the Clorox, but if I have poor results, I will try the Nine. Thanks.

OK thanks. I am gonna hit the store before they close tonight. I will let you know if it did the job or not.

Hello everyone, I am cleaning my boat and decided to give it a scrub from top to bottom. I have a hard plastic fight chair that I believe is the same material as the helm chairs. I had this sitting behind my shed for close to 2 years and it is kinda yucky. Algae has decided to take residence and...

I am interested and ready for details when available. :dance

They look nice but I have to ask, Why not just roll your curtains down to protect the inside?

I did replace the plugs recently and they are still clean. The engine had about 50 hrs on a rebuild before I got it. I will see if I can look for any other trouble signs from what was mentioned above.

Hey guys, I had my boat out for the first time yesterday and it was a Great Grady of a time!! I have been working on it on and off for the last 8 months now(mostly off). Well after all the great studies on the threads and questions answered here out it went and came back!! Just sticking within...

Great looking boat! What a nice packaged ride. I also have an off shore pro and I admire your windlass. Could someone point me in the direction for a windlass? You must be excited, welcome to Gradyland!!!!

JSB, Nice to see you on this side of the tracks as well with your pics. It is always a plus when a Grady is in the pics!!!! :lol:

Well it depends on what you are going to be filleting. Little sprat or jumbo Tuna? Make sure your knife bends how you want and hold a good edge. Not sure of the higher dollar brands but I have a Dexter($20-30) and seems to hold up fine. I can't seem to bring myself paying big bucks for a knife...

I recently bought a coiled hose to wash the deck of the boat. When I went to install it, I realized the fitting on the boat was a female piece and so was the hose end. Is there an adapter of do I need a different hose with a male adapter? Norm

Pay close attention to the seals on the window. It may be trickling from one spot to the other depending how level the boat is.

I had my engine looking rough with sun damage when I bought it and went to a dealer for Evinrude for paint. They had the color for the year and I prepped the engine and painted it myself with cans. Finished it with a high gloss clear and it came out real nice.

Yeah I looked it over and realized not a safe bet. I spent an hour and a half removing all the teak in the boat. Gonna give a real nice scrub and oil then see a new looking boat before me.
