I decided to look at new fuel tank options instead of having this one repaired. Since this tank is the second one this boat has had, I thought a polyethylene replacement should eliminate corrosion problems. The best replacement I found is the Moeller FT11101 111 gallon unit, dimensions look...

PM sent, any parts still available?

I spent the day taking out the fuel tank, then cleaning the bilge. Nasty, nasty, nasty! Tried posting pictures and it sent me to a page with some type of list on top, when I tried to go back to my post, it was blank. Had to type this all over again. :bang

After pricing what it would cost to restore the twin Johnson 140's, I decided instead to purchase another pair of them for parts from a northern state (less corrosion from fresh water). So for 2 grand I have two more outboards that have no serious corrosion on the mid section and control areas...

A T-top would be great to find, and add the curtains when needed, I will keep my eyes open for something.

Spent a good part of yesterday cleaning out all the storage compartments, pretty amazing what you can find hiding in a thirty year old boat. I am very surprised the oil injection is still hooked up and was working, my boat mechanic friend seems to think there isn't a lot of hours on the boat...

After having the 226 surveyed I was able to purchase the boat for 2,400.00 including trailer, I'm very pleased!

Structure checked out great, no sign of soft spots, stress cracks or transom issues. I will replace all the fuel lines, bilge pumps, though hull drains, fuel pumps, water pumps, and electronics. If the lower units come off with no damage, I will reseal them and repaint them. Motor mounts and...

Newbie here! Chances are pretty good I will be hauling this Grady White 226 home next weekend, had a boat mechanic look it over yesterday. It needs a bunch of work, but the mechanic says it's worth the trouble. It sports twin 140 Johnsons that show 135 compression on all cylinders for both...
