    what would you do?

    I tried this once....white paint becomes gray and dingy in a hurry and winds up looking even worse. Another thought - what's the rule on putting a lift in the slip? Jet Dock?

    what would you do?

    I've owned bottom painted boats for years and they have lived on the trailer at my house. It's not a deal breaker. If you are keeping the boat in the water 6 months a year it's better for the boat, anyway.

    1988 19 Tournament Gas Tank Replacements

    RDS built one for me for an '86 190 Tournament....they have plans and the one they did for me fit like a glove. I'm pretty sure it was a 60 gallon tank....

    Grady 208 top speed with new mercury 4 stroke 225 hp

    What hole is the motor mounted in? Are you trimming it out or running it all the way down? Are you measuring speed with a GPS?

    Alternative to Cockpit Cover on Dual Console

    Those covers will save your cushions, but the rest of the cockpit is exposed. I have cockpit and bow covers for my 225. I can cover the entire boat in 5-7 minutes or so, and the interior stays clean.

    Maybe I missed it but what are you repowering with?

    Are Grady hull warranties transferable??

    If you haven't already registered with GW, go the website and register yourself as the new owner. You will need the HIN. It also gets you on their mailing list for the quarterly newsletter "Anchorline."

    Loaded and ready to go!

    Depends....how much fuel did you burn?

    Props

    You really need to trim it up and see what happens. My guess is you will see 300-400 rpm and that will get you pretty close to the ideal wide open 6000 rpm. As others have said, how are you measuring speed? GPS?

    Hydraulic steering a little stiff, normal or not?

    Pray you don't ever need part #5. A couple years back, I needed it on a 225 OX66. Had to be cast and come from Japan. Took almost 8 weeks to get here.

    Grady 192 1994 model windshield

    Can you take a pic and post what the hinges look like? I went through the same issue....if yours look like mine I can tell you where to go (Taylor Made Systems) and the part number.

    Finally got it home

    A beast for sure. I know you know this, but you could use a taller winch stand or a cow catcher or both.....the roller should be above the bow eye.

    hour meter ?

    Those motors didn’t have an ECU to capture the hours.

    Freedom 235 towing capacity

    I’ve got the same truck minus the 3.73 gears (mine has 3.55) First time you hook the boat up and set off down the road you will think it’s a dog, until you lock out gears 8-10. Once you do that, and select tow/haul mode, it’s an entirely different beast. 5.0 needs to run above 2K rpm to make...

    Wildfire Destruction

    Sorry for your loss. Caj is a good guy and may have a recommendation, but can you get the boat shrink wrapped?
