    Need some measurements please for a older Seafarer Hardtop

    You're referring to the boat in the below link as being sold and no longer on Craigslist? Because it's still showing up for me. Also, if you don't have the $5k-$6k then I guess I'm not sure why you'd make a post about purchasing or adding a hardtop to your current boat. Unless you get extremely...

    Need some measurements please for a older Seafarer Hardtop

    Well... when the OP is talking about buying or adding a hardtop to his boat and has been for some time, the idea of spending money will inevitably come up at some point. Unless he's somehow able to find one for free, which at that point I'm guessing it'll be more likely to see Bigfoot riding on...

    Need some measurements please for a older Seafarer Hardtop

    As mentioned above, I'd check with the second guy and even if he won't sell the hardtop separately... I'd buy the whole thing, maybe keep the trailer depending on the condition of your current trailer, and then sell everything else off. I can't imagine you'd lose money on the deal, and even if...

    Need some measurements please for a older Seafarer Hardtop

    I think it would be if the trailer was brand new, though it says it's a 2004 trailer, but it looks to be in decent shape from the pictures. I'd be all over that setup, even if it was just to get the hardtop, and depending on what trailer you currently have, maybe swap out trailers as well. If it...

    Need some measurements please for a older Seafarer Hardtop

    Did you call the guy in the first Craigslist ad that I posted? He had the whole boat I believe for $5-$6k and was willing to part it out. Which I'm thinking you probably could've gotten the hardtop for less than $2k-$3k. I'm not sure what year of the 240 Offshore you're looking at but it has an...

    2000 Marlin

    Interesting how you mention everything else, but you don’t mention the tail. The fact is, just like is illustrated in the pictures as well as everywhere on Google, that a king will have spots all throughout the tail. Both on the top and bottom half of the tail, as well as on both sides of it. If...

    2001 248 voyager issues

    If you're considering the 248 Voyager, I'd also seriously look at the 232 Gulfstream. Especially one with twin motors if you're going to be in unprotected waters. Just my thoughts on the matter, of course. You can find them for quite a bit less than this one, but is just an example...

    Wanted 232 Gulfstream

    Indeed... which is why I've purchased all 3 of my boats back on the east coast.

    Need some measurements please for a older Seafarer Hardtop

    Here's what appears to be a factory hardtop on the exact same year boat as yours. I'd buy the boat, motor and trailer for $6k, take off the hardtop and sell the rest of it. I'd be willing to bet you could come close to breaking even or you might be out a couple grand. Either way, you'd have a...

    Wanted 232 Gulfstream

    She's not a 2006 and newer, but here's a 2005 from out here in the PNW for sale for anyone that might be interested... https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/boa/d/greenbank-grady-white-gulfstream/7717172124.html

    2000 Marlin

    lol... alrighty then. Just having a relatively friendly conversation here, though if one had spent a few minutes searching on Google before replying, they'd see what I'm referring to. Also, it's always quite lovely when someone tells you that you're wrong on something you've been doing for over...

    2000 Marlin

    A few things here... I think the two pictures of me holding the fish are a bit on the deceptive side as they were taken when it was overcast outside as well as in the shade between homes, making the mouth look a little darker than I think it really is. That being said, if you zoom in and look at...

    2000 Marlin

    How so? Different tails... the king up on top has spots all the way from top to bottom. The silver on the bottom however, has zero. ;)

    91 Tournament 22 w/ Grady Drive - What to Look for w/ Transom

    If the boat is somewhat nearby and you're even remotely still considering it, I'd at least go and look at it in person to see what the actual condition of the boat is. You are correct, it is now a 33 year old boat that could very well have issues, in fact I'd say most boats of that vintage do...

    New model Freedom 415

    Just get a bigger lift then... problem solved ;) Coming back down to reality though, $1.4 million is insane.

    91 Tournament 22 w/ Grady Drive - What to Look for w/ Transom

    If the boat has always been stored like you mentioned as well as trailered and doesn't have any damage, I would expect it to be in at least better than average condition, if not greater. I don't have much experience with the 225 Tournament of that vintage other than to say yes, it has your...

    Repower GW Tournament 205

    I'd inquire as to how much a Mercury 225 FourStroke series motor with the digital throttle and shift option will weigh as well as cost. Their standard Mercury 225 FourStroke series outboard only weighs 475 lbs, compared to the Suzuki 225/250 which is over 600. Your current Yamaha F225 per google...

    New model Freedom 415

    My guess would be that if they were considering going this route, since their biggest Express cabin series boat is only 37' that they would instead do a 40'-41' Express based off this new 415 Freedom first. As opposed to jumping all the way from a 370 Express to a 45' Express, just my thoughts...

    Benchmarking 2000 272 Sailfish Prices

    Doing a really quick Google search, there are 10 similar boats for sale currently on Boat Trader that are all in the high $20k's to mid $30k's range, unless the power is newer, there's a trailer included in the sale, or maybe the seller is a bit optimistic. Depending on your location, of which...

    2001 248 voyager issues

    What do you mean by a step hull? You mean the gap in the stern between the cockpit and where the engines are mounted? I'm admittedly not the most knowledgeable person in regards to a 248 Voyager, that being said I believe most Grady White models are going to have that style of transom as opposed...
