Definitely pictures needed of this. The 282 is my sixfootitis boat. Would have one if only closer to the coast. A little overkill for central Kentucky.

Hop a plane to Ohio, rent a truck, pull it home yourself,,, should be less than $4795, and you get to have an adventure.

Both have been banned. Anytime someone, especially a new member replies with "they have the part or names someone that does", always check it out with a few emails back and forth, ask for info, location, something and see what kind of response you get back. I've even called their bluff before...

Is this the enclosure you just put on with poly windshield? Or old original enclosure?

Very nice upgrades!!! Well done!!

Give A&J Canvas in Vanceboro NC a call and speak with Lee. They made a full enclosure for my 2004 228 a few years back. They are the OEM supplier for Grady-White.

Have to agree with Mustang65fbk on this. I troll lower end of Erie around Kelly's Island/Port Clinton area. Had looked at the Yamaha 9.9 but switched focus to the Mercury because of this very thing, carbureted vs EFI. For me, EFI made sense for ease of operation and not having to deal with carbs.

Have fun!! I had 3 hours after initial break in run, then added 5 more before my Florida Keys trip last week. Now sitting on 36 hours and need to get her back down to dealer for the 20 hour check. I did call the dealer before I went over the 20 hours and they said no problem, just bring it in...

Just switched over to my 4 blade prop after break-in of my new F250xcb. Looking forward to the gains of it on my 228. Had a 4 blade on my old F225 and it really helps.

I joined the club last week in the Keys!! Leaving Islamorada sandbar and heading back to the gulf side to run back down to Marathon and misjudged my clearance on a bridge and got both antennas. Drug off the black tips and skinned them up pretty bad, skinned the ole ego a bit as well. I try and...

The nose of the lower unit is still just barely in the water at full tilt.

I just repowered my '04 228 with a F250 and I'm with the others @ 5800-6000 RPM, I'm seeing 43-45 MPH depending on conditions with 50 gal. of fuel and 2 people, no curtains on hardtop or bottom paint. Factory 3 blade 17M prop. I did have them mount my motor in 3rd hole down on motor bracket as...

2005 and up 282 Sailfish, no bottom paint and F250's would be my 6 footitis go to boat. Pulling is a non-issue since I drive a dually, could still travel around to different locations, granted, not as easily as I can with my 228. May be somewhat overkill for catfishing with they guys on...

Welcome Coastboater!!! You live in my happy place. I've been coming down to the Charleston area for over 35 years. Been in and out of Charleston Harbor many times and enjoyed the 4th of July fireworks quite a few times. Fish a lot up on Santee-Cooper for the big cats. Seel's is a great place. I...

I'll reach out to Smoky this morning and see if he still has yours. He's been through a whirlwind of ups and downs in his life,,, good chance he still has yours.

Make a panel, trim what's necessary, mount it. My Simrad NSS12 Evo3 flush on my '04 228.

My Simrad Halo 24 vertical beam is 22°. I have mine mounted on a Battlewagon pedestal mount with 4° down angle. When underway, I'm pretty flat with the angle of the boat.

Just pulled up the brochure for the 2005 model year and the HP rating on the Tournament 225 is 250 HP. Think some of your problem is being timid while trying to get up on plane. Tuck motor in, check surroundings, give it the beans, and pull back some on throttle and trim out after coming up out...

I'm in the Imar group with drbatts and wspitler. Had new enclosure done and Strataglass recommended Imar. Been using it for 5 years now and zero issues.

No. DriftMaster 30° Flatline holders.
