    What size brass drain tube for Grady Adventure

    McMasterCarr has it as 1.250” od x .032” wall thickness. I’ve included an adapter to use an air zip gun that uses the .401 shanks. It’s handy to preflare one side before cutting to the right length, just hold it with good gloves or leaned up against something soft.

Reading about the dreaded rotten GW transom syndrome I unbolted my 150hp Yammy, lifted up a few inches with a gantry crane, removed and resealed all hardware penetrating the transom, including kicker bracket and swim platform. It was...

    Parts on the way. Forgot to mention in the PM I included some left over brass tubing I used (bought from McMasterCarr). You may find you’ll end up changing all the brass tubes once you see how easy it is to do. Good Luck

    Camper Cover for a 208?

    Windshield Removal..

    First thing you need to do is to pluck out the snap-in plastic trim piece that covers the screws (outside lower), remove front screws then the front panel pivots forward to disengage it from the sides. From there it’s pretty si(m)ple........
