    Anyone have any good videos? Maybe in some rough water? There are not a lot of Gradys in the youtube inlet videos (wavy boats, boats vs haulover...). Most videos that do exist are promotional videos.

    off season repairs planning.

    This would be ideal. i just think alot of these boats sit a bit low in the stern, not sure how high the deck is above the waterline, or how much it might drop under if a few people are on one side, maybe pulling in a big fish

    Do I suck or is it my boat?

    the fact that he is asking the question he is implies to me that he is probably (hopefully) not a "hold my beer" kind of guy. if he is i would love to see a 282 air it out too. the head sea and trim principles presented in the video should serve hem well in the OCMD and Chesapeake chop that he...

    Do I suck or is it my boat?

    the principles in the video are pretty basic, not really advanced level boater tips (the hard over turn at speed may be advanced, but its not what the OP is looking for). just because they are demonstrated in pretty heavy swell doesnt mean that they only apply to those seas or that one should...

    Do I suck or is it my boat?

    who is advising him to launch off waves like that? the principles in the video are sound guidance applicable to most sea conditions

    Do I suck or is it my boat?

    take a look at this. taking a head sea starts around the 1:55 mark, followed by how to trim the boat, that being said, just watch the whole thing, its only 5 min...

    Remove Rod Holders

    How easy is it to remove rod holders on a cc, ideally a chase? i would just want to pull them out and re-bed/seal them.

    this really seems like it would be the best of both worlds, the looks and "effeciency" of no bottom paint, but the protection of paint...

    What a difference 4 months makes.

    did you do it yourself? how easy was it? i may be picking up a boat with partially removed black and would like to do something like this instead this really seems like it would be the best of both worlds, the looks and "effeciency" of no bottom paint, but the protection of paint...
