    2 step boarding ladder source?

    I'm traveling today. When I get home I will check the width, but I think it is too wide for what I need to do. I think my ladder is narrower. Regardless, the offer and effort is greatly appreciated! I'll follow up tonight.

    2 step boarding ladder source?

    Hmm. Could be an option if the width is right. What does it measure outside edge to outside edge?

    Weight Distribution Hitch

    I don't use one, but if you do make sure your trailer is designed for that type of load. Most are not.

    2 step boarding ladder source?

    Anyone know a source or who made the 2 step boarding ladders used on the older Gradys? I might need one.

    Screw Cover Caps in Almond

    I forgot to post on this. Yes, beige was not the right color for our 1999, but it still looks better than missing or deteriorated caps. Hopefully your next guess is right. The website images certainly don't make things any easier.

    Transom Rebuild - The Saga Begins

    I think those flared brass fittings cause a lot of transom issues. Anyone know if there is a better quality alternative?

    Removing aux tank on 1999 268 islander

    It wouldn't be the 1st Grady that I've heard of with a drain tube that was glassed over. I'm likely stating the obvious, but my forward compartments won't drain to the back unless the boat is on a significant incline. Are you sure you have enough slope to get the compartment to drain back to the...

    I Was a Little Bit Offended Today (Again)

    Looks like GW needs to do some better marketing down under. Curious, why is the Seafarer so popular their? Does Australia have width restrictions on the road less than 8'6"/2.6m?

    Unbelievable product

    What will it do to concrete? I would assume the concrete needs to be thoroughly wetted also?

    Unbelievable product

    Great info. I wasn't sure if it would harm galvanizing and didn't know it was that agressive to aluminum. I can protect the aluminum parts with plastic, but can't protect the galvanized cross members. I'll cover the aluminum and hose down the galvanized parts I can't cover.

    Unbelievable product

    Hey Doc, If the trailer has been sprayed with water and then the diluted cleaner is hosed off, will it still affect the aluminum or galvanized parts of a trailer? My hull has some staining and there is no way to avoid some diluted cleaner hitting the trailer. If it will be an issue, what do you...

    OX66 O2 sensor

    I forgot to mention cleaning the 1st sensor didn't seem to change the test results.

    OX66 O2 sensor

    The 1st time I suspected an O2 sensor issue, I tested it. The results were within spec, but barely. I replaced it and my performance issues went away. The past 1 or 2 I didn't test, but checked all the usual culprits before swapping the sensor. The issues went away. This last sensor was a...

    OX66 O2 sensor

    I replace mine with an automotive equivalent for sub $40. Been doing so for 10 years. No issues. Cleaning never seemed to result in an improvement.

    2000 islander

    This bubble is a repeat of the 80's, but for different reasons. However, still the same is the reality of maintenance costs, dockage, lack of use, and the "payment" (that once seemed reasonable). I agree that reality unfortunately won't begin to kick in till next fall at best. I hope I'm wrong.
