    Registration Letters?

    Seasick nailed the requirements....except NC now issues two decals....one for each side.

    Registration Letters?

    Boat US can turn them around in a couple of days. Their Navy and/or Navy/Gold match perfectly. I think if you go directly to a NC Wildlife state office you will walk out with your numbers and stickers. If you use an agent, they may be able to tell you what the numbers are while you wait for...

    Forward Fish Box 180 Fisherman

    I can't recall the shock pressure size but a quick call to GW customer service will probably get you the answer. Regarding the 4 screws, it was probably for the lexan drink holder...which probably got broken off. Boat Outfitters makes replacements in almond starboard....www.boatoutfitters.com...

    Tournament 225 performance

    Like Doc, I too responded to your post on the other site. Are you sure it's a 30"? Can you post a pic of the prop?

    Tournament 225 performance

    Are you getting your MPH from your GPS or from the speedo? The speedo pitot on the front of the lower unit may be clogged. A tiny drill bit or piece of fishing wire leader will clean it out. GW performance numbers always seem to be a bit optimistic....that said, my 225 (same hull, different...

    New fuel tanks!!!

    FMT made some of the tanks. RDS also made them. I used RDS when I had to replace a tank on one of my GWs. Fair price, showed up at my door via UPS, and fit like a glove. http://www.rdsaluminum.com

    Moving batteries on a 222

    You are lucky. Older 225 owners like me with dual batteries have to remove the oil tank to get the port side battery out. A nuisance and if the oil tank is full, messy.

    Hull bottom and specs on Grady 228.

    Loadmaster builds a nice trailer and I have owned a couple of theirs, as well. For me, the big thing about Owens has been - besides the quality of the trailer - the level of service they provide. Example - over Memorial Day, I got hit in the parking lot. Tore the fender up pretty good. I...

    Hull bottom and specs on Grady 228.

    If you are dealing with Jeff and Doug, you are in good hands. I'm on my 4th trailer from them...all for GWs. Every one has fit like a glove. The only thing I've had to adjust was the bow stop - and - in one case - the side guides. (I like 3/4" or so away from the rubrail.) Take a look...

    Hull bottom and specs on Grady 228.

    SeaV2 has been around since the early 90s. Only difference would be axle placement as the W/A's have more weight forward compared to a DC or CC. Most - but not all - of the custom guys have the measurements. I know for a fact that Loadmaster, Peterson, Owens/Slide On, etc... all have them. I...

    Hull bottom and specs on Grady 228.

    Who is the trailer builder? Have they told you they don't have them? If you call GW Customer Service (252-752-2111) they have a spreadsheet with all the measurements of the boat and the recommendations for trailer capacity. They will happily email it to you.

    209 escape repower

    For $1200 more you can get 50 more HP plus a far larger dealer network. The Yamaha will also be a better value come resale time. If it were me, I'd lean toward the F200 i4....

    dash on 192

    I've done it in my 225 with both acrylic and starboard. Both have their advantages. Remove the door and make a piece of cardboard as a template, if necessary.

    Is There a Substitute for Ring Free?

    A 6 bottle case of Ring Free is $209 from Domo-Online. If you don't need that much, find someone to split a case with you. I've been doing that for years with another GG member who lives here in Atlanta. https://domo-online.com/index.php?route ... =ring+free

    Question on selling a trailer

    Someone down here was looking for a 22' trailer...I'll see if I can find out who it was.
