For some reason, the search engine behind this site has a quirk in that it doesn't want to include commonly used words, like Sailfish or Marlin. For example, if you search for "Marlin fuel economy", it will ignore both "Marlin" and "fuel" and list 900 hits on "economy"

If you search for "Sailfish fuel tank" you get the following message:
The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: sailfish tank fuel.
You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.

For those unfamiliar with this Google feature , there is an easy way around this using Google but constraining the search to this site only. You just do a normal Google search but include the text "site:greatgrady.com". Thus for the above example, you would type

Sailfish fuel tank site:greatgrady.com

in the Google search window. If you haven't done this before, try pasting the above line in the Google window - you'll get lots of relevant hits.
