    2021 Hull Logo's and model callout

    We roll in Saturday afternoon, probably have boat in before nightfall, tied up behind the house. Supposed to hook up with Smoky a couple of days hopefully and get out to troll if the wind cooperates for us.

    new prop

    I'm running the same as Smoky and Ryhlick on my F225 and it has been a great prop. I spoke with Ken, and will be keeping this prop to run on my new 4.2 F250 when I repower this fall/winter since Yamaha is dragging their feet. There is no clunk or prop chatter with the PowerTech either.

    It's official - 228 is no more :-(

    1981 was the first year for a 22' walk-around,, the 220 Bimini which is a 226 now days. The 222 Bahama is the 228 now days. 1984 they changed the name to Seafarer and used 226 and 228 numbers. So to answer glacierbaze, if you want to be technical,,1984 is first year of what we know as the...

    Radar mounting on hardtop pics

    I hate to hear that. I guess I was talking to him when I had questions about the pedestal. Seemed like a nice guy. I'll be mounting mine in the next few months. I'll have it up and running by my October trip. Did get the HS60 mounted last weekend, so that part of my future radar is complete.

    It'll wash. Hopefully the weather cooperates and I can get it bloody. If not, there's always sandbar hoping.

    replacing gas tanks

    It's definitely a owner project for sure. No need to pay someone to do it. Let's you get to know your boat better. I replaced both main and auxiliary tanks in my '04 228. Replace the hoses also while there. You'll be ahead in the end.

    Questions/concerns about possibly purchasing a 228 Seafarer...

    I don't think that's true. You can still build a 228 and it's listed as one of the walk-arounds. If they were no longer making them, they would have removed them from the website. The 228 is one of their most popular, doubt they would discontinue it. They may have put some models on hold due to...

    Actually like the blue rub rail. More forgiving at the dock. Acetone wipe down and 303, it looks good as new.

    2021 Hull Logo's and model callout

    Couldn't wait!! It was warm enough. Probably worked out better being overcast and cool so I have more time to work the stripe. Great match for my registration numbers.

    2021 Hull Logo's and model callout

    Doing the work myself. I had my dealer in Charleston source all my pieces that I needed from Grady for the complete switch to the new style. Very happy with the outcome so far.

    2021 Hull Logo's and model callout

    I was torn on staying with the old school domed navy over gold or updating to the new style. My buff guy took care of that when he stripped the hull unbeknownst to me. He actually did me a favor. Love the look of the new style. Excited to get the new style stripes back on it. My registration...

    2021 Hull Logo's and model callout

    I had my boat stripped of all the old stripes and logo's along with a complete buff out, which is a story in itself. Anyway, started putting the new 2021 logo's on along with the model callout. I'll put the stripes back on when it warms up this week. This is just a preview. Also had my...

    Looking for new set of canvas enclosure for 228

    A&J Canvas in Vanceboro NC will be who you need to contact. You'll talk with Lee. She does the OEM work for Grady-White. Many of us here, including myself, have gotten new enclosures from her.
