Sweet!

Awesome

So I was polishing it with Finesse it 2 glaze using their white hex foam pad. I was doing the outside "wall" of the walk-around space and got to the anchor locker . I accidentally increased the RPMs on the DeWalt and at the same I was near the hinges of the locker . I touched the hinges at this...

And the OP was straight forward and saying it's either the 208 or 228 and no other boats . ;-)

I might need to take a field trip.

Along those lines check your fuses first . It could be as simple as that.

Curious, how long are your poles? How long have you had them and do you run with them extending while on plane? I ask because I have aluminum 15 foot Tacos and their junior mounts. I have them installed with backing plates and no cracks. I have had them now for 6-7 years. . I don't run on...

My advice is to sea trial both boats. get on them and bring your wife if you can. I would suggest taking the sea trials on average days with some wind. You will then know which boat offers what you are seeking. I have a 228 and love it. Ain't gonna lie my heart years for a Sailfish or...

Greetings Guys. I spent the afternoon and into the evening today compounding polishing and waxing the front half of the boat topsides only. I used 3M marine rubbing compound, 3M Finesse it2, and waxed with Collinites 925. This is my first legitimate compound and polish job since owning a...

Hey Y'all,. I bought a cordless DeWalt XR 5 inch random orbital buffer . I have a bunch of DeWalt 20 V XR tools so what the heck. My struggle here is finding pads. The buffer came with 5 inch disc with the hook side of Velcro on it. I am missing something here , but where do I find say 5-6...

There is a breaker in my boat near the battery selector switch for the bilge pumps. They are not going to place a fuse or breaker in place where it gets flooded or wet routinely or inaccessible without dismantling the live well or what ever . The float switch could be stuck like others...

I enjoy reading here because most of us are passionate about our boats, we either love em or hate em. . Back in the day when I was in middle school Grady White invented the Walk Around style boat and it catapulted them in the industry. At one point the 228 was their flagship craft and Grady...

I had a 192 dual console Grady. I can attest the 228 runs way better than my 192 did. With that said they discontinued the boat because it sales went below some metric. why did it do that? Because the walk around especially on smaller boats under 27 feet have fallen out of favor with the boat...

If they both were powered with the sane motor one or another , I would go bigger . They are not . The ox 66 is thirsty but they were done what bullet proof. The Journey is going to ride better but the layout of the 228 is amazing for a small boat . On a typical day of 2-3s either boat is fine...

It's not the size of the tabs but how you use them in conjunction with the motor. Grady built that boat for 4 decades and I trust they know what they were doing in regards to the tabs. I have never had an issue running the boat now 13 years with the factory equipped tabs. Let us know how...

Best trailer I have towed in my life. My Owens is just a year old now . Let's hope the new people realize the importance of the brand they bought and figure how important maintains or improving the quality is for their future

I haven't looked at a chart for that area in a while but one of the qualities I find beauty in is the near shore scenery where land and sea meet. Problem is it's hard to to experience that interface from 5 miles off. In many places you can't get that close to shore because of water depth and...

Hey Dennis , maybe you can over and fabricate an entire new tub for me? Lol. Cool job and work .

When I lived in Florida and had my 192 I went over to Homasassa a couple times. I stayed between the markers and yes it's shallow over there. I have explored around the mouth of the Suwannee River too . I have kayaked around St. Marks but that was near shore and stuff. I love the Panhandle...

I just installed a Fusion Apollo hideaway system WB670. It has a class D amp which produces excellent sound with low heat and current draw. It's a white box that can be installed nearly anywhere and is controlled by your plotter, an app or the Garmin Quatix 6 or 7 watch. My boat audio is night...
