Email GW. They can probably tell you who made them and you might be able to get them recovered to like new.

The Gulfy is wider than the Advance, so it will be less efficient even if the Advance is a little longer. I don't doubt that a 25 Advance with a 300 will cruise up to 35 mph and still be within the "sweet spot" of efficiency. I would suspect that efficiency would drop of immediately thereafter...

Not sure what your concern is. Yeah, you can cruise at 35, but more importantly is what is your fuel burn. Some setups have a broad cruise range that will net nearly the same mpg. My mpg from 4k-4.5k rpm is about the same, so I can cruise at 28-34 mph and use the same amount of gas for the...

Over winter there was another member who created a thread for me to post photos of his trailer setup. My setup actually looked better than his, but my stability was terrible. I'm happy to report it is fixed. That said I'm blown away as to the cause. Here are things I checked and rechecked: *...

Photos of the tabs on the boat?

Maybe I got lucky, but try cleaning all of your electrical grounds to your power head. I was amazed how well an ox66 225 can run when dialed in. After trying everything else I would get intermittently good low speed performance. After cleaning all grounds, my low speed performance was...

Probably not. 16 cylinders firing to go forward and another 8 in reverse to go slower. Only in America! :D Does your boat have a generator? If so, go electric.

We slow troll with twin f150's. With 1 engine on in flat water I'm around 2.6 mph. If I tuck the engine in all the way and run the tabs all the way down it brings me down to 2.0-2.2. If I put the off engine into gear (so the prop doesn't spin) I can drop another 0.1-0.2 mph. I'm not sure if you...

I owned that boat (with a single) for 10 years. I towed it thousands of miles with a properly equiped half ton. I've driven the newest V6 Taco and can tell you with 99% certainty you have way too little truck or too much boat - unless you only plan to tow it down the street. Even then, 4 low...

Holy hell! I thought my battery access sucked! That is a whole nother level there. I'd love to know how many worker comp claims Grady dealers have for trashed backs and shoulders from trying to do bilge/battery work. Scit, what is the black hose for in front of the battery? Does removing it...

I don't have experience with that boat, but assuming you were level when you checked tongue weight, I would move it up 4". Your tongue weight should be around 350-400 lbs.

The door and door casing are machined out of some type of polyethylene. It's possible there is a residue I can't see, but if there is, it's on the door too. What's odd is that there are 2 other door assemblies on the boat that are the same. I've had no issue getting things to stick there. I'll...

Considering 3m automotive double sided tape wouldn't work, I'm reluctant to think weather strip will.

The weather strip fell off my battery switch door. I have tried EVERYTHING and I mean everything to get something to stick to this surface and nothing will. I've tried: - 3m automotive tape - Gorilla tape for polyethylene - The stickiest carpet tape known to man - Duct tape - 4200 - Seadek...

Ideally when lightly or moderately loaded you should hit 6000 rpm. That way when loaded you can still hit the 5-6k range. By doing so means that the engines aren't over loaded when the boat is fully loaded. Over loading the engines leads to high heat conditions potential shortening the life of...

Hull Maxx is the only clear product, but it will not prevent scum build up. It is also slightly less expensive than gold plating!

You don't have many choices, but they are: - lift - dry stack - armored hull enclosure

Looks amazing KY! Don, I had the same fabric in our 99 Voyager. If this new stuff makes it half as long, I'll be happy. I didn't realize I had a before photo till recently. This was taken and sent to me from the previous owner.

Mine came from Marine Glass Specialties. You simply stuff it into place.

We had a Voyager for 10 years and put roughly 500 hours on an ox66 225. It is a very dry riding boat. It has a tendency to ride bow high. The bow high characteristics has its pros and cons. The biggest pro by far is that when it gets nasty out you can slow down, pop the bow up and confidently...
