    I have no idea what you're looking at there, if it's a knockoff or scam site, etc... as the site I'm looking at is a bit different, has a green banner at the top of the page, etc. Also, when clicking on the "5 Panel Snapback Cap" on the actual website linked below, it clearly shows the correct...

    Grady merch

    Yikes... your first comment on the forum since you joined almost 4 years ago now? Random. I've yet to see any other reviews on Google when doing a quick 5 minute search indicating that it's not a legit site, the few negative reviews look to be related to shipping issues. I also looked at the...

    Grady merch

    A quick Google search comes up with a company called hatpublic.com that appear to do custom printed hats, as well as it looks like t shirts and other items. I haven't ordered anything through them, but they appear to be a legitimate business with dozens of different options for GW hats, beanies...

    For Sale- 2008 Grady White Adventurer - 250 Yamaha, Hardtop + Trailer

    I think you can either direct message a moderator or add that you've sold the boat to the title of the ad and ask for it to be deleted. Congrats on the sale!

    1999 seafarer freshwater washdown station location?

    The cockpit shower locations can also been seen on page 6-17 in the "fresh water systems" section of the owner's manual. As discussed, it's an optional feature and not on every single boat, so yours might not have it. There's also two different models of the Seafarer, the 226 and the 228...

    Step Courtesy Lights

    Well... considering it's the part number listed on the 2004 Grady White parts catalog, I imagine it's going to be pretty accurate. As mentioned above, they claim it's a cockpit light part number of 13-103. Which after a short Google search appears to be an outdated part number for an Attwood...

    Step Courtesy Lights

    It looks like the original was likely an Attwood 13-103 cockpit light, where a Google search didn't pull anything up with that model number, of which it would make me assume it's long since been discontinued or there's been a change of model number or two since then. They appear to still make...

    No power to F200xa

    I'd start off by doing the quickest and easiest things first, which would be checking all of your connections to make sure that they're tight. I replaced the two batteries on my Grady White 228 Seafarer back in the late fall/early winter of 2023. Boat ran fine when I pulled it for the season...

    Is there a rule of thumb you use for rough seas?

    I mean... my personal thoughts on the matter, and without any sort of mathematics into the equation, would be... "am I going to be able to fish by myself? and is this going to be fun?" As mentioned, I typically go out fishing alone, or maybe with one or two other people at the most, but if the...

    Correct prop for 228 Seafarer with F225 Yamaha?

    His first post said that his max speed/WOT is only 26 knots @ only 5,100 rpm and did a "real test" on it. Unless there's something drastically wrong with the outboard itself, there's no reason why he should only be hitting 26 knots @ only 5,100 rpm. He's already said that the bottom is clean and...

    1995 Sailfish 272 Repower. Suzuki 200 or 225??

    Congrats on the repower and that you're completely satisfied with the purchase. I've definitely gone down the rabbit hole a few times to where you overthink things, feeling like you're about to lose your mind, etc. I was going to say, I don't think that you'll be lacking in terms of power with...

    Correct prop for 228 Seafarer with F225 Yamaha?

    I live in the Seattle area and fish/boat almost solely in the Puget Sound where it's protected and we don't get a ton of bad weather or anything. I usually leave the trim tabs on my boat set to where the bow is up and rarely ever adjust them. The same with the trim/tilt on the motor, I usually...

    Correct prop for 228 Seafarer with F225 Yamaha?

    Yikes... yeah a max speed of 26 knots and only 5,100 rpm is much too slow. I'm not positive as to what I have on mine, just know that it's a 3 blade stainless steel prop. Here's a copy of the performance bulletin from Grady White on a 228 Seafarer with a Yamaha F225 on it. Looks like a 13 3/4"...

    Here's a parts list from 2013, not sure if it'll work out for you and your particular situation, but it's the newest one they offer on the RNR Marine website. Looks like the 330 Express has a pretty extensive section for their parts, hardware, lights and so forth starting on page 215. That being...
