    More prop talk Seafarer 228

    Bazzturd, out of all these comments only you and I have the same motor/boat/prop combo and the exact same experience. I woulding put much stock into comments from people with different motors/boats and the same prop. apples to oranges.

    More prop talk Seafarer 228

    I can comment as I've tried your exact same prop with the same boat/motor. (Power Tech OFS4 15.25 x 15 (per prop gods)). I tried it once. Had your exact same experience. The pitch is too low. I took it off immediately. Yes it's better traction but I'd like to try a 16 or 17 p to run it. I was...

    Then I cut a big hole in the deck

    Great Post pics once you get it. I've just loved my new storage this season. Don't know how I ever did with out it. My stern anchor BBQ, life raft, buckets etc. Bigger would be even better.

    Advice on raising scuppers?

    Agreed! I learned the hard way but not the hardest way! People always ask me what to look for in a Grady and I say the scuppers but I mean the hoses.

    Couple of motor bracket questions

    How'd the water get into your bracket? Seal at transom or the lid is more likely the issue than the plug. Consider filling bracket with fresh water to test the plug and boat side seal. Like should be rebedded anyway. If the same guy who put your transducer on sealed anything else check it...

    Doubt you'll be able to hear the music while running. If that's important to you, consider mounting them from hardtop. But at anchor I bet you can hear them just fine.

    Help Identifying Proper Grady White Blue Color

    Hi guys, I searched for this and found nothing but I bet someone knows. I'm getting some boat names printed and want to match the same color of the Grady blue stripes and logo. Struck out the first time ordering their darkest blue. They say I can customize if I know the color code Grady uses...

    Cut, buff, wax.

    Yeah amazing new products and learning out there. It was interesting to hear about how short the life of carnuba wax is. Obviously things last longer up north with less sun exposure than compared to Florida so a year up north is probably a month in Florida!

    Cut, buff, wax.

    Guy, wax is really old school, doesn’t last very long in the sun. Deatailers use sealers no they will keep it cleaner and protected much longer like up to a year. According to drakes detailing this is one of the best. https://amzn.to/39X7PRN The next step up is ceramic coating which is very...

    Bait Rigging Table

    Dang SeanC, they aren't giving those boats away in Austrialia. I have a friend that makes lots of cash importing land crusisers from your land. How about you send me LC's and I'll send you GW's in containers? haha SeanC, would you consider changing the name of this thread to "fillet table" or...

    I like your storage idea. Tons of room. I recently cut a hole for a hatch. Both have their pros and cons.

    Looking for speakers

    yup that seems to be the new style for sure. No deck just a bluetooth connection then the amp provides the power. Decks never had as much power as they claim anyway. Have you see the latest waterproof bluetooth controllers? They are the size of a Grady Rocker switch and will fit in there. When...

    Bait Rigging Table

    The big question is, do I drill 2 big 2" holes for 0 degree rod holders to mount the new table??? Option 1. Mount table legs in 2 0 degree rod holders in back of transom Pros -table would be removable -2 more rod holders when removed Cons -2 big holes to drill -Maybe not stable - more stuff...

    Bait Rigging Table

    Miller Marine has brackets that you could lower it up/down with their dog bones. Not cheap but reasonable for the quality. https://www.millermarineproducts.com/strong-arm-rod-holder-mounting-systems/strong-arm-rod-table-mount-in-line-kit/

    SeanC Thanks for posting those pics. I saw this same table in this video but couldn't find good photos. Did you see this badass video of the same boat in Australia?

    Looking for speakers

    Boat speakers sound best when they are aimed at the occupants, which is hard to do in an open boat. For the use you have above I use Marine box speakers hung from my hardtop. They aim backwards and sound great in the cockpit. The major benefit is you don't have to make 2 giant 5" holes in your...
