    Seacock stuck

    Close my seacocks unless using but keep them open when in drydock for the winter.

    Seacock stuck

    Following. I have a 330 and the bronze thru Hull for pump out is really hard to turn. I was wondering if taking the hose off and spraying some sort of lubricant in there would work?

    330 express amp

    My ‘06 330 didn’t have one. I switched out the old unit for Fusion and right now only have 4 speakers. May add one if I put 2 speakers in the cockpit/stern.

    06 Hull Striping - where to find?

    Thanks. I wonder if I can send them the photo or sample and they can make it off that? What was the turn around and was it heavy duty vinyl?

    Underwater Lights - sealing holes

    Thank you! All the horror stories of wet transoms in Grady’s is unnerving!

    06 Hull Striping - where to find?

    Does anyone know where I can order this? My dealer in OCMD doesn’t have any and said it is no longer available from Grady.

    Thanks. What is the repair technique for hole bigger than 1/4 like a 1/2?

    Underwater Lights - sealing holes

    Hole side is maybe 1/4 of an inch - just enough to feed wire through.

    Underwater Lights - sealing holes

    My starboard underwater light (ugh) failed after 2(Ocean LED X16 Spectrum) and I may need to install new lights (looking at Lumitec SeaBlazeX2’s). If I do, I might move them higher up the stern on my ‘06 330. So my question is about sealing the existing and new holes. What I did before is to...

    Anyone have a 272 Sailfish with F225s?

    I had a 2000 Sailfish which I bought new with Yam 225 OX66s. Awesome boat but sucked fuel and oil! Loved it though! I would have the mid section exhaust scoped on F225 for corrosion. Agree on the low hours. Hopefully it was stored properly.

    Appropriate dock lines

    5/8 braid. Multiple likes and snubbers on stern and spring lines. Boat (330 Express) is in a floating bay marina with a large sea wall. Still when it blows 40-50 (usually a Norester), it can rock the boat and snap smaller lines. The 330 is certainly heavy!

    Immersion Suits vs Life Raft

    I’ve seen a few Great Whites and Tigers as well as other large sharks off MD. Would rather be out of the water even if it’s for just a few hours. Also, much harder to see someone in the water from a distance. This past Summer off Ocean City, a Boat took on water quickly and flipped over a few...

    Underwater lights?

    I installed 2 Ocean LED X16 lights a few years ago. They change colors and work and look great. However, one went out on last trip in Fall and haven’t had time to troubleshoot. Not sure if fuse or other issue. I had a pair of green only ones for 3-4 years but one failed when water got inside...

    How to inspect a Yamaha Outboard for mid-section exhaust corrosion?

    wow that looks bad. If my OB looked that bad shining a flashlight up inside, I’d probably have it taken case of ASAP. My F250s have a manufacture date (which may or may not be accurate) of March 2006. Seem to be ok so far!

    How to inspect a Yamaha Outboard for mid-section exhaust corrosion?

    Checked my 2006 F250s in the Fall. Was told they looked fine but didn’t use the scope - just flashlight!

    Opinions- New enclosure GradyBlue or OffWhite?

    My 2006 Grady 330 is blue and still in great shape. I sent them to AJ a few years ago for new strataglass. I do like the blue look but guy up from me has 2007 330 with off white. If I did that, I’d remove the stipe.
