    New member seeking a Grady!

    Hello- Having just landed a newer Grady after a long search my reco would be to constantly look at the inventory each of the Grady Dealers in the North Eastern U.S., that, and keep updated on Boattrader.com.

    Looking to find out where I could find original replacements for the rear bimini straps- Neither Taylor Made or Atwood have Navy Blue replacements and the OEM looks like it was better quality. Any direction on where to find would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Thanks- I have been reading up on the AGM- did nit realize there might be a compatibility issue so will check into that. One other thing- OEM batteries under the DEKA name are tougher to find- East Penn Manufacturing builds batteries for retailers like West Marine, NAPA, CARQUEST, etc., and...
