    Any 330 owners with cockpit storage cover

    I have a Seafarer, but it is the same question. There are two approaches, one is just a rectangle which gives you shade, the other is a rectangle with a triangular side that gives you more protection, Which is good if you are near trees, or if there is a lot of junk in the air, such as near a...

    You are getting bolder, those are some big holes?

    Deck Drains

    You must have clicked the link on a mobile device, as I just did on my iPhone. Just a picture and a price, and no description, as you said. I posted it from my desktop, and when I click on it there, there is a full description, pictures, dimensions etc. I know that you have already ordered from...

    Deck Drains

    The difference is that the center grate unscrews in the bottom one, leaving the SS ring. It may also have an anti back flow ball in it, some do. Read the info in the links.

    61 Runabout- lap straight repair-

    I see pine trees, not palm trees, in your photographs, which look more like the Carolinas than Florida. North Carolina is home to many wooden boat builders. What is your actual location? There was nothing special, or unique, about Grady White‘s boat building technique, so don’t let the name...

    Molding Replacement Rivets/Retainers

    If the place you found in North Carolina is Rusty Ron’s/Island Marina, then it is legit. He buys up leftovers when Grady finishes a production run, and has a huge warehouse full of parts, but he is not much cheaper than buying directly from Grady White.

    Marlin 300 Aft Deck Cover Repair

    When you go back with one piece, do you drill any holes in the Coosa, to prevent trapping air?

    Round ispection plates

    Pop outs in the splash well, or outside the transom, should not pass any sort of boat building standards. I had two pop outs in the splash well of my previous tournament, and I drilled a small hole through the ribs on the bottom, and connected them underneath with 100 pound mono, to keep them...

    Round ispection plates

    When I bought my 2000 Seafarer a couple years ago, the pop out pie plates would fall out from wind, water hose, or just choppy water. It must have been an ongoing problem, because the previous owner had left several packs of new ones in the drawer under the seat. Replacing them did nothing to...

    Grady White 228 Pilot House

    JJMag, did he build it to the same line that the original windshield frame attached to, or was there some glass work below the house addition? Not sure if your boat had the curved, or the angled windshield.

    Backup Camera

    You could cut the distance by putting the camera under the back edge of your hard top, and probably get a better perspective on the corners of your boat. I would install a dash cam, that you can turn on anytime, rather than a dedicated back up cam linked to reverse.

    Trailer Problems

    I have the same issue, and I was sure that I had found a solution. I have a heavy chain binder, like loggers use to secure their load on the trailer, and I snugged that up between the bow eye and the winch post before pulling the boat up the ramp. I was shocked to see several inches of...

    265express coaming vinyl project

    Did the OEM vinyl that you removed have the polyester fill in the pleats, or was it flat?

    265express coaming vinyl project

    Nice job! It's on my to do list, but I am thinking I will just make the corner two pieces. I have a couple of industrial sewing machines, including a Singer walking foot, so I will probably mock up a corner seam with some scrap, just to see how it looks.
