Any pics of the cylinder piston head? I suspect it’s a Teflon/bronze 2-piece piston seal (?). I run a hyd machine shop north of you and repair all types of hyd cylinders, might be able to help.

Not sure they are rare, less of them for sure as most happy Grady owners move up bigger in time. I have a ‘92 which should be the same hull as yours. It’s been a great boat, friends and family wonder why I don’t upgrade but my reasons are because of trailer issues with larger heavier hulls, I...

I ended up making a pair from scrap pieces of 1/2” thick. starboard from a friend. Worked sweet, nice and smooth, took a little time on the milling machine but happy they will outlast me (which shouldn’t take long:p).

I did the same as OnoEric with a temp tank setup. Although mine is made from a cut down 55 gal plastic drum the drain is same over the transom. The pump I rigged up was a cheap Wally World bilge pump hanging off transom with a custom alum bracket. It can be removed and installed quick...

The set going to Boats is for 1.250” OD tubing. I have the 1.000” tools also if needed. My 19’ Tourney has two 1.000” in the splashwell and two 1.250” for deck scupper drains.

Glad it worked out. I have found brass tubing in longer lengths if someone has many to do but requires putting on the first flare before inserting in transom. I use an air chisel (I call a zip gun) with a modified tool to creat the first flare. McMaster Carr sells brass tubing that works...

Looks Good!.......Keep ‘em, you’ll find someone else that needs them. I have more:)

Thanx Trapper, I sent out an email to Jacobsen Marine

Craig, I will let you know if I use a source or make a pair. I have the technology just havent had the time this winter. Keep the press tool or pass it along to others.

Seasick, is this the pair of slides you have. I have need for two. Thought of making these on the Bridgeport but if anyone has a lead on where to get two I’m in

Sorry, couldn’t resist

Not sure what your model is, but it should look like this under dash.

If you get underneath you’ll find a model code on the housing. I had one lose its fluid, called Richie and they said average $100 to refurbish. Ended up buying the exact replacement IIRC $120-130 new.

210 quad ring (if it’s a .750” shaft) available at your local hyd shop. Seastar does have two different sized shafts (IIRC .875”)

I remember following your transom extension project a while ago on another forum (THT?). Awesome workmanship, looks great.

yes, epoxy

like above I also did the weight thing, while the first layer of fabric (not sure type but for epoxy) was wet we buttered the wood, placed with weights and let cure on flat concrete, next day 2 more layers.

I did same as Leeccoll, one layer of cloth under wood, two over. Put a 45 on all edges to be filled with epoxy/cabosil mixture so all screws would not be going thru wood Rock solid

I agree on the above posters, 100 hp would be underpowered. My 19’ with a 150 2-smoke needs about 23-25mph min to stay up on plane, full tank and a few guys and it struggles out of the hole. 25-30 it humms happily.

Not sure where you are Trapper, but this is what you can look forward to even with bottom paint. It did come off with good pressure washing but was only in the water 5 months.
