The bilge type bait pumps have the advantage over pressure type pumps ( regardless of brand) that they supply a lot more water and use a lot less current, so ideal for baitwell running that you may need to run them all day. That fact they will let water run through when under way is another...

I don't know what pump you ate talking about, the set up I describe works as described. The rule pump in this link : ""http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rule-405FC-Tournament-Series-1100-GPH-Livewell-Pump-/190456014437?pt=Boat_Parts_Accessories_Gear&hash=item2c58102665&vxp=mtr"" has 2 outlets neither of...

Thanks for the links, we already looked at these boats and any others that are advertised in the usual websites, like boattrader, yachtworld etc.. If you know of any that are not in these let me know.

seasick, You got it wrong, this set up works the same as if you had 2 pick ups. Both pumps will work independently regardless. Just imagine you turn on the washdown pump thats the only outlet that will have water , no water will go in the livewell and you don't need a valve on either. Turn the...

I don't know about overpriced, that depends on the condition of the vessel, if the hull in in good shape and with some negotiation it could be well priced. Lets say you bought it for $30k a used 2006 F250 is $9- $10k, all up $40 k . If he bought the boat he would buy a new engine, even if he...

You don't need anything else, its all in the rule pump housing, I have that in my 228G, she didn't have deckwash when i bought her. I prefer this set up rather than having 2 raw water pick ups. The rule pump in the link I gave you ( Johnson make them as well) will pump all day as it is a bilge...

A friend is looking at buying a 228G, we found this boat in AL. http://www.boattrader.com/listing/2006- ... -101953412 The boat doesn't have an engine and that's fine he will install a new engine. Does anyone here know the history of this boat? Has been for sale for a long time ( maybe 2...

I have that in my 228G, one seacock, a rule livewell pump with another outlet for my deckwash. Run a hose from the other outlet ( bottom one) to your deckwash pump. You can use both at once or at anytime individually. I actually have the large rule livewell pump because I run my normal livewell...

I have an Ace built ally trailer for my 228G, GVWR 7000 lbs tows very well with a 200 Landcruiser 4.5 lt TTD. I had the trailer custom built with heavier I beams, extra crossmember , all S/S fasteners, ally bunks, target bunks, Kodiak S/S brakes, hydrastar actuator,torsion 3500 lb axles, 15"...

I'm 25-30 miles offshore very often in 6'+ seas in my 228G, never have a worry, I can still manage 20 mph head on and much faster following, of course I back off at times when you get a few short and sharp ones.

Try Barbour plastics http://www.barbourcorp.com/Grady-White_ ... b-rail.htm, they make it for GW but they use a different rub rail on the new boats so they may not have left. Much cheaper than GW but they don't supply the screws, use your old screws. It comes in two parts, flexible Rubrail with...

Nice looking trailer, I have a similar looking trailer made by Ace trailers in Fl ( to my specs). I like the way they fixed the fenders on the I beams, mine are fixed front and back like yours but not with a crossbeam and the beam twists a little when you stand on it. I have front bunk slides on...

Thanks for the part number, I only need the green one, I found them at dusky sport for $11.95 http://www.duskyonline.com/0273DPGLNS-p-lures.html I will order it from them. I already use LED festoon globes..

The starboard side navigation light on my 228G has a cracked lens . Does anyone know if I can get a replacement lens or do I need to replace the complete light assembly. Anyone know who makes the light for GW?

I installed S/steel gas struts in my 228G, not hard to install as long as you have another boat there with them so you can copy the location for the brackets. I couldn't find one here in Australia so I relied on pictures to get the correct angle.

Nick , It doesn't sound good. Are you sure this oil burning started suddenly? Are you sure she wasn't using oil all along but maybe not as much? If I was you I would check engine compression and do a leakdown test as well, compression test alone will not give you an indication as to why you are...

I don't find it hard to get to the bottom of the bilge. I replaced my bilge pump with a bigger unit when I got my boat . If you think this is hard try doing this on a 2102 Trophy.

Of course its does, not just in the toilet, in the basin as well. If you haven't been to AU, you don't know what you are missing!!! If you wait another year or so your $ should buy a little more $AU than it does now to ease the pain. I'll be over to USA West cost and Canada in August and I can...

I use Kodiak all S/S here in Australia on all the trailers I set up, never had a problem other than warn pads and warn rotors; I buy them from Sturdybuilt, these are the brakes I use: http://www.sturdybuiltonline.com/Kodiak ... p_476.html I know they are expensive to buy for you guys but I have...

Re: Best Compound and Wax to use to bring back the grady hul You can use almost any compound you like as long as it doesn't have wax in it ( 3 m make good products) , if it has wax the gelcoat will look shiney and you will think she is done long before she is because of the wax in the compound...
