That discrepancy between your heading and course indicator lines can be cause by factors such as wind and currents. For example, if you have a stiff cross wind hitting your port side, then your course computer is going to steer your heading to port slightly in order to hold that course line you...

I own a 2004 year 205 Tournament. This is what came on the boat from Grady.

Sounds like Garmins version of SPOT.

Measure the length of shaft exposed on either side of the steering cylinder. When you turn the steering wheel to make one steer cylinder have equal shaft exposure, then the other should be equal also. There is arguments about whether the engines should be toed in slightly instead of straight...

Well Lee, I got the lights finished up. I had a spare ACC switch on the panel with a 5 amp breaker so it was a snap. They really put out some light. I included a couple of fish picks so you can get your fix:)

I went through the same problem as seasick...finding an SD card small enough to be accepted. I found mine on eBay. New item.

Nice photo Trapper. How does that little guy tow behind the 208?

Thanks Trapper.....I miss it. By the way that new autopilot holds a mighty true wake!

I have one of those 912s and the clutch is the "fuse " so to speak. The designers intend the clutch to slip before things like gears and shafting start to fail or the motor melts the windings. That said, if I tighten the clutch knob good and tight, it pulls damned hard. Loading a boat on the...

I decided to drill through the transom for the wires from the fishing lights I'm installing. The cuttings from the drill came out nice and dry and I want to keep it that way so I contrived a way to seal the wood inside rather than just use a sealant on the exterior. I had used a product in the...

I think it would be interesting to see an updated picture of the Knob Creek bottle.

That was a fun trip Lee. Judging from your travel kit, you didn't take the Admiral along. Had she been along I'm sure we would have not had the fuel supply scare. Sometimes we need an overseer.:) That 100 proof Knob Creek will burn just fine tho and it has no Ethanol so you could have made that...

These guys are in my town. They are helpful and have any parts you might need. http://www.boatsteer.com/index.html

What about neutral? Can you shift to forward, back to neutral and back to forward or is it just stuck in forward? Make and model will help troubleshooters also.

I wonder if the fish stayed on till he got it untangled?

As far as whether the bunks should be angled in going forward, the answer is, No. The table indicates a spacing that keeps the bunks under the stringers and they are parallel. One thing to keep in mind when having the lift installer adjust the cross beams. On the Gradys I have become familiar...

So, I'm guessing that when the warranty is up and a guy wanted to juice it up a bit, a guy could buy an ECM for the higher hp model and it would let you calibrate the throttle plate actuator to a wider opening and "voila"...more hp.

Well, I took my boat in to the Grady dealer last Thursday and went back and picked it up today. I had two issues I wanted them to evaluate. First was the belt dust build up on the cam shaft sprockets. After doing their due-diligence, they say there is nothing wrong..."run it". The next issue I...
