    T-TOP on 17 SPIRIT

    Check out the T-TOP we just finished fabricating and installing on a 1990 17 Spirit. The customer found this boat sitting in a field! It turned out real nice! The life jacket bag really freed up some deck space. Also, we installed a gps, am/fm/cd player, and vhf radio in the electronics box...

    spirit 175 scuppers

    My first Grady was the 17 spirit. I bought it used with an 85 Suzuki on it and repowered it a year later with a new 115 C series Yamaha. I did notice after the repower water entering the scruppers with a full tank of fuel and with me (200 lb) in the back. Nothing serious though, it drained...

    spirit 175 scuppers

    Hello and welcome to the forum! I had a 1992 Spirit 175 with a 1992 Johnson 90, weighing 320 lbs. I don't recall ever seeing water come in through the scuppers. Maybe the Yamaha 115 weighs a bit more? Rob

    spirit 175 scuppers

    I have a spirit with a 115hp yamaha. I bought it used. I assumd the motor was factory mounted. The real problem is that we salmon fish out of the boat and spend a lot of time in the back.There is continually an inch or so of water in the back. Is this normal for this boat or is the 115 at the...

    180 vs 209

    F18: Welcome to site and congratulations on a first post. I'll offer my related experience. Our first Grady was the Spirit 175. It was 17'5" and it was the precursor to the 17'10" Sportsman 180. We had great times on that boat, including two crossings to Bimini. Second boat was a 208...

    Purchasing a 1995 Spirit 175 CC

    in 1996, I became the second owner of a 1991 Spirit 175 equipped with the Yamaha 90HP. This boat has been trouble-free for 17 years and the only repair needed has been replacement of some wiring. The Yamaha needed a cylinder head in '98 (blamed on too much 'trolling' low speed use), so I...

    Purchasing a 1995 Spirit 175 CC

    Pete: Our first Grady was a '92 Spirit 175 with a Johnson 90 on it. We used the heck out of that boat and had great times. We did mostly near shore trolling (1 - 10 miles out) and tried to keep to days with seas 3' or less. We made two trips to Bimini in that boat. On one return trip, we were...

    175 spirit

    My wife and I had a 1992 Spirit 175 (our first Grady) and loved it. Mostly coastal use out to about ten miles in good weather. The boat handles a 2' chop fine. We made two trips to Bimini in that boat. Coming home on the second trip, seas were 2'-4' from the NE and we were taking them head-on...

    175 spirit

    Hello all and thanks for this great site. I have found a 95 175 spirit in excellent condition. I plan to fish long island sound with this boat. I was really looking for a 19, however I will be trailering so the smaller size is getting more atractive. My question is will this boat be to small...
