My 2014 GW CE 251 has this Fresh Water Pump: SHURFLO AQUA KING™II PREMIUM 4.0 MARINE FRESH WATER PUMP – PRODUCT TECHNICAL DATA SHEET:

Joseph, congratulations on your new boat. I have thought about doing the same fresh water flush, due to low volume and pressure at my dock. For my boat the “water math” does not work: -Yamaha 300, the recommended flush time 15 minutes -Freshwater tank size on my boat is 10 gallons -Freshwater...

I don’t know for the 228 but my CE 251, there is an aftermarket option with a ski pylon. Have you looked at this product: http://turboswing.com Don’t use the tower as the anchor point.

Voyager Soft Sand, Nautolex marine line from Omnova (513784)

CWV, I did not realize the 236 was not on the chart Grady Customer Relations sent me for my 2014 251 CE. In addition to what Seasick provided, you want to insure you know the 236’s LCG to adequately center the boat on your cradle. Frankly I was surprised of where my 251 needed to be centered...

My 2014 251 CE has the following material: Voyager Soft Sand, Nautolex marine line from Omnova (513784) I was able to source the material from: -pleated / from Greatlakes Skipper (called Tracker Boat Heat Pleated Vinyl 176326 Sand Beige) -flat / none pleated from BeeCleanMarine.com A bit...

I called GW and they provided this document for specific lift setup; to insure (1) proper bunk spacing (so the buttocks of your boat will rest on the bunks) and (2) the appropriate Center Gravity for centering on the cradle.
