    Wondering if there's a list available per model showing what changed year to year (major).

    248 Voyager - Docking

    Glad I'm not the only one. About a week ago I was reversing out of a slip and the boat did exactly the opposite of what I expected, all because of wind. For a second I thought there was a mechanical problem. Not the first time either.

    Grady White Fuel Tank

    Had the same problem (HPDI 150), fuel tank walls exposed to air build up crud, which falls and clogs filters. Especially if you're going from E0 to E10. Got a service to clean the tank. Changed all HPDI filters (water separator, VST, metal canister) Installed 2 micron racors (S3220SUL) Make...

    Material for replacement toe rails

    I'm reading that starboard has a significant expansion as temperature changes which could cause issues, cosmetic or even worse.

    Voyager 248 - Thru-Hull Transducer

    Had someone installed it for me. Didn't have time, plus the peace of mind of it being done right by someone with experience. I was going to go with the 0 degree on the centerline, right up to the fuel tank bulkhead, but he recommended to put it ahead of the baitwell pump on the port side to...

    Voyager 248 - Thru-Hull Transducer

    Update. Found the "transducer flats" in the owners manual (thanks GW VOYAGER), exactly as shown by nitrox32 in the pics. But I'm also reading around that GW no longer recommends using this location due to possible turbulence issues. This explains why when I called GW they said there is no...

    Voyager 248 - Thru-Hull Transducer

    Thanks so much for the pics. Makes perfect sense now. Here's someone who implemented it flush to the bottom at the centerline, up against the fuel tank bulkhead http://www.thehulltruth.com/marine-elec ... e-out.html Wondering which option would perform better, specs are different, not...

    Voyager 248 - Thru-Hull Transducer

    Thanks so much for your response. Great news. I was going by the info provided by Grady customer service, sounds like they got it wrong. Is this area on the centerline forward of the two seacocks (saltwater washdown / livewell intakes) ? Yesterday I did find a picture of someone who had...

    Voyager 248 - Thru-Hull Transducer

    Grady Voyager 248, dual HPDI 150s. head unit is a Lowrance LCX 38c HD. Original Lowrance transom mount transducer is shot. Would like to install a thru-hull transducer / airmar b60 (20 deg) but here are my concerns: No clean / designed location on the hull for thru hull ducers. Grady...

    Voyager 248 w dual hpdi 150s - prop choices

    Currently on Yam 13 3/4 x 17 M1 / ML1 props. Above is Gradys recommended prop for my hull / motor setup. Excellent all around performance, cruise at 2 mpg / 37 mph, wot at 50 mph / 5500 rpm. Im told I will spin the hubs sooner or later, and that Merc props are better all around. Any specific...

    Water in fuel tank-next move?

    I've been told water gets in most of the time via the filler cap, the gasket gets old and leaks, so just replace it. Also the fuel sender on the gas tank has a gasket, no big deal at all to get to and replace the gasket. Last thing I could think of is the gas station you're using has water in...

    house battery aux charge wire

    On my 2000 HPDIs it's a relatively thick (it may be a 12 or 10 ga) red wire on the stbd side of the engine with a connector. Cut off the connector and splice it to a longer wire, run directly to hour house battery. Will only charge, and never draw from it. According to a master yam mechanic...

    Thru-hull Transducer

    GWvoyager, I called Grady and they did not officially recommend a thru hull transducer for the 248, I guess there's no specific location on the hull designed for it. They did say if I went ahead with it to put it as close to the gas tank as possible, ahead of the seacock inlets, on the...

    Thru-hull Transducer

    248voyager, Did you end up installing the b117? I'm looking at it for my 248. Did you have to remove the rear floor panel to install it? I was also worried about the bottom not being perfectly flat right after the fuel tank.. ? Any pics are appreciated. Regards
