Thanks. Yes, I’ve been looking on BT as well as other sites, Craigslist, and even Facebook marketplace (even though I am banned).

I’m still looking for the right 209.

I have a friend that repowered his non-Grady walk around from a 200 Yamaha to a 200 Suzuki and took a few props before he found the right one. The dealer that installed (and recommended the prop) screwed up pretty bad and he could not even get up on plane. From what I r remember, Suzukis are...

Email Grady white. They will send you what you need to know for a perfect fit.

Happy New Year (bump) I'm still looking. The ideal boat is 2016-2017 209 with T-Top and bench-seat livewell, 200 HP Yamaha, and no bottom paint. Open to travel up to 1k+ miles from the northeast. Would certainly entertain anything from 2011-2017 but would still prefer a 200 and no bottom...

Ethanol can separate the inner lining of a fuel line and as mentioned it can stop or restrict fuel. It can also add debris as well. That sand might actually be shredded particulate from the line. If you did not mention the sand, I would say you have water in your fuel or that the primer bulb...

Thanks everyone. I’m kind of focussed on getting something with the 2011-2017 layout. There is a 2016 2 hours from me listed through a dealer (brokered) but is bottom painted and only has a 150. I attempted to go look at it at the dealer and when I leaned it was brokered and another hour away.

They are worth it. I researched the heck out of this subject before buying Endurance. I went from a load c to d but also from Goodyear Marathons (aka: marabombs) to the Endurance. From my research at the time, the Endurance was the only trailer tire made in the US. All that said, match the...

I'm located in the northeast but will travel for the right boat. I prefer something w/o bottom paint as I will be trailering.

I am looking to move up to a bigger / newer center console. I have a few brands on the list but based on my experience, I will likely stick with a Grady White. I have had my heart set on a 209 or 222 with a warm thought of moving to even a 230 or even a 257 (within 10 years old). Dealers have...

I would certainly get an independent survey if you are unsure of what to look for. Major systems may include transom, stringers, fuel tank, outboard, and wiring. Hull damage under bottom paint may also be harder to spot and I passed on a nice boat that had covered up major damage that was not...

I missed the show. I have only been to a few but really wanted to go this year as I may be in the market and still not 100% sure what I want. Regarding boat prices, I was ready to upgrade around 2019/2020 and was going to add a small boat to my fleet. I was not willing to wait in those long...

Unfortunately, during the pandemic, short supply drove up prices of new and used into scary levels. new boats exceeded double their price in a 2-3 year span. Used boat are also holding some ground but overall prices have softened a bit. However, new boats seem to be riding out that last wave of...

Would you know the tow weight?

When are you looking to sell it and how many hours on that outboard? Has it been scoped or repaired for the potential exhaust corrosion issues?

The Wise boat company makes them for Grady. When I ordered a new set from (the dealer) Grady they were shipped directly to me from Wise. They may not sell direclty to you but may be worth a shot?

OP, if you are referring to the dealer in Middleton, you should reconsider ever going there. They screwed up my nephews yamaha outboard and left him literally dead in the water. Beyond the new parts milking of over 5k and 3 months they took to fix, they did not tighten down one of the new carbs...

Voltage regulator bad? Cables at the regulator also possibly suspect? I had a similar issue, went to replace the regulator that intermittently worked and there was a loose wire that was grounding out. I have a spare regulator now.

Sad to hear this. I have wanted a 228 for a while. I still do and would only buy used regardless. However, no more new models is never good for resale for sellers in a hesitant market nor a demand based market for buyers. I really wished they made a 222 CC model with a bracket like the 228...

I did this job in the past on my GW using the stock aluminum. I realized at the time I may end up having to do it again and used 3m 4200. This time, I'm looking to use vinyl or 316 stainless. I called a Grady dealer and they said they sell the vinyl to do it by the foot. I think he said it was...
