GYP-SEA BILL '01 ADVANCE 247 TWIN '04 YAMAHA 150 4 STROKES

I have an '01 with twin '04 150 4 strokes, it has great power, not sure about the single but should do well.

How about 3/4" marine plywood 6' to 8' long and 24" to 30" wide with screen molding for non slip. Maybe 2X2X4-6" under center for added support ???. :hmm

Purchased her used, had the dealer remove the name BEFORE I paid for her, once home re named her but used part of the original name just to be on the safe side.. that was 6 yrs ago and have had fair seas. Good Luck

I'm in ILM and have a '01 247 w/ twin 150 4 stroke and go to the stream, I came out of a 232gt twin 150's and like the 247 MUCH better. At 32-3300 rpm get 2.3 mpg about 9.8 to 10 gph. This boat does great even on bad days. pm me and we'll talk.

I have them on my 247 and replace them every 6 mths, the ones on my engins last at least 2 years.

I've been using the brass quick release hose fittings from Home Depot for the last 4 years. I've had to replace the female fitting on my garden hose from time to time because of taking the nozzle on and off but never had a problem from the male/female on the engins. :idea:

My last Grady was a 1989 232GT with twin 150 '96 Evenrudes

I have an '01 247 with twin 150 4 strokes and go to the stream (50 mi) all the time. It's a little rough in the NC seas 3'-5' but *GOOD* she is a good handling boat if set correctly. Like it much better then the 232gt I got rid of to get this. *BAD* Get wind/spray curtins you'll need them...

Good Luck, You'll LOVE it. I have an '01 247 W twin 150 4 stroke. will take it any where any time.

Igot two small coolers for either side of the live well (can use as seats) and a the big one at the bow on the platform and tie it off to the bow cleats. You may find one that fits between the front seat and the fishing platform. The only other place to put on is in the head, you can get to...

I have an '01 Advance 247 and it has a base coat and 3 or 4 coat of bottom paint and noticed this spring that there is blistering on the Starboard/Ste :cry: rn area.

So What does everyone think about the "NEW" GRADY-WHITE stripe this year. I'm not sure I like the green into blue design. :cry:

Has anyone used black corrugated pipe as a slide on their mooring pole on a floating dock? I've seen it in NC but not sure how long it would work with oyster shells growing on the pole, or, does it keep them off. Do they need a float or do the lines from the boat cause them to move up and down...

I have the same problem, tried running the water out of the fresh tank and it "seemd" to stop but not sure as I use the anchor often and wash it down while in the locker. Please post if you find the problem

I used PRI-G in my 16' W/ 2stroke merc 50 for a few years. last winter the PRI-G dropped out of suspension and trashed the tank and engin. I had to have the carbs re built and the tech said they were totally blocked with some kind of black oily stuff, it also messed up the fuel pick up in the...

Have the old owner take the name off before you take delivery. King Nepuune will give you bad luck if you re name a boat the wrong way. :twisted: google re naming a boat. good luck

The Cooper river is suppose to be a good dive if you want to find (BIG) shark teeth, and other neat stuff, BUT, they say it's like diving in coffee.
