the new style grady white looks good on the side

just do your best measuring and add several feet

the best way is to just drop you boat off at your local canvas shop. they can do a custom job exactly how you want it. they dont need to be "grady experts", just good at canvas

like said above, non-bracket gradys were the ones known for the moisture issues. the aluminum cap on the transom would deteriorate and let moisture in. i think it was1998 that grady switched greenwood xl for the transom (pretty sure the stringers, too). it is much more rot resistant. they...

a few of us have replaced tanks recently. its definitely easier on some boats than others. let us know what you find and how we can help

prioritize things that help you to keep floating. 1 deck drain hoses (if your model has them). they can dryrot, fail and allow water into the boat 2 bilge pump 3 pick up fittings and shut off valves then i would go afte things that help you to move and steer, then everything else. where are...

i dont see why you couldnt call any dealer and have them ship to you. Taylor Marine is the closest to me and they sell things on Amazon

as a last resort, you could put in polycarbonate. you might have to work with material thickness to get it dialed in right and may have to be creative in how you hold it in place while your adhesive cures. i say this because i am getting poly carbonate stitched into a piece of canvas to have a...

best advice i can give is to call ken at prop gods. beyond that, id call grady and see what they put on the boat with that motor. im guessing you will have to drop to a 13 pitch based on your current numbers, but that seems low

congrats on some great efficiency gains!! super helpful with your absurd fuel prices. those prices would put a lot of US boaters out of the market. is that at least ethanol free?

in this context, the business end would be the stern with your new power. its a figure of speech in US english referring to the end where "all the business" is happening. with a chain saw, it would be the chain end; with a gun, it would be the end of the barrel... congrats on the new power...

my current boat is my first with a windlass. id prefer that it was a flush or hidden mount just for visibility. im not short (6'0"), but between it being on the pulpit and being a top mount, its quite prominent. id really like to ditch the pulpit and go to a hidden windlass.

just the actual tab itself? its pretty easy. well, that assumes the boat is out of the water...

who is calling the shots here? the boat ran bow up and they wanted to recalibrate the trim tabs? tabs can either do nothing or bring the bow down. what were the rpms on the first trial? was it acting like a dirty bottom or spun hubs then as well? if the engines are spinning quick and you...

ill do a second one at some point as well
