    New potential owner 1999 Grady White 208 adventure question

    Thanks Luckydude and holokai During the winter, I usually fish Suisan bay and bay point area anchoring out of sturgeon or stripers. When spring rolls around I'm out Monterey or Moss landing trolling for salmon or drifting around for rock cods. My 7 and 8 year old showed a lot of interest in...

    Found a 99 228 with about 800 hours 225 Yammie Series II. Any of you family with this year? By the time I get it to CA it'll be about $23k not mint like the 208 I found but seems mainly cosmetic and will look good with a little elbow grease. I told myself not to get a wood construction boat...

    Thanks lucydude, that's very generous of you. Based on the feedbacks and research I would agree, this boat is probably too small for my family. The cockpit looks tiny.

    Coming from a 1995 Seaswirl 2150WA, was in the market for a 21-24 fot walkaround like a proline 23 WA and hoping to get a newer model year mid y2k ish boat or the likes but came across a 1999 208 that has only 300 hours on boat and motor (200hp merc) and everything looks like it's in real good...
