    2024 Marlin Trim Tabs

    my GUESS, is that there was a mid-year update to accommodate the SK Ride. we would need to know the build date of each boat. or call grady and ask. also, i have been wrong before and will definitely be wrong again.

    2024 Marlin Trim Tabs

    i think its only a matter of time before trim tabs on new boats are 100% replaced by SK Ride, especially on upper tier boats

    Fuel Tank Size

    if you cant find the sticker on the tank and cant find an answer here, you can call Grady headquarters customer service. they are usually pretty helpful, even with specs on older models

    Trim Tabs for a boat that never had them

    New Grady debut at the end of the month. Big, little, or in-between?

    ive never liked the dual consoles. the layout feels awkward and looks like a schoolbus with a long isle running down it thats dividing the boat in half
