Hi- I’m finally replacing the marine boards under the steering in my 228 with starboard. I was planning on using the originals as a template and using a router. (See pic) I’ve never worked with starboard before. Any tips / tricks that I should be aware of? Shout out to TAP plastics for thier...

Hi-looks like they didn’t do a great job sealing the bolts for the swim ladder on my swim platform and some water got in there. I had a 4x20” stainless backing plate fabricated for strength, but was wondering if anyone had any recommendations about filling any potentially rotten wood inside...

I'm still loving my new to me grady 228, and this site has been great (especially the tips on maneuvering in tight quarters with the Grady drive)! My Grady had everything I want / need except a raw water wash down + windlass. I added the raw water wash down before the season, and I looking at...
