have you thought about a mfd that isnt mounted in the helm? you could put a second screen on the back of your helm chair, or maybe even on a flip down mount on the back of your hard top. that would be dedicated to people on the fishing deck

i want to reseal as much as i can of what goes through the boat. in doing so, i want to pull do deck cleats and the t-top legs among other things. are these screwed in, or through bolted with backing plates? if backing plates, any easy way to access? if no easy access, any recommendations on...

bump...i ended up buying the boat. i am curious what other chase owners are running for props, ideally with 250s. i called grady and they told me that boat with 250s comes with 19 pitch. its currently running about 5300 rpm with what i believe is the 23". any insight regarding whether this...

awesome, congrats.

i have heard that moisture meters can not be used on bottom painted areas due to the metal in them.

nice! i have heard thats a beautiful area. id like to make it down that way sometime

hopefully the stringers are dry and solid. i wish you the best of luck!

so, did it sell?

this will be my first year winterizing my new to me 2000 Chase 263. I have a couple questions: 1. engines (3.3L F250s) - trim down and let it be? i have a few friends that dont do any more. others say to change the engine and lower unit oil. others still, say to fog the cylinders too. i...

thanks, all!

i just picked up a Chase 263. being an older boat, there are some maintenance items id like to take care of. one of the first is sealing the deck. specifically, the caulked seams between deck panels, the deck and console, and the deck and leaning post. what is the best product for this...

thanks everyone. the boat will see a mixed bag of use. "close water" is the upper chesapeake. we will do family day outings, anchoring, restaurants, and some crabbing. for blue water, ill take her out of Indian River Inlet in southern delaware. id really like to get some mahi

I have been on here for a bit, just reading and chiming every now and then. Lots of learning. Well I am now officially part of the Grady Family! I just bought a 2000 Chase 263! I drove down to the Tampa area and towed it back to south east PA. It will need some buffing & polishing...

are you sure its greenwood? when i spoke with grady, i am almost 100% positive they told me they 98 was when they started using it. id call them and double check if i were you.

my neighbor shrink wraps his boat and reuses it for several years.

did you have the boat before last year? could that be a symptom of being over pitched? i know thats a long shot, and if your performance numbers are good, then its def something else.

this is what i was going to say. the 90s foam ones were WAY thicker than the nearly useless thin neoprene ones out now.

i did the white pvc ones on my trailer. i installed them with the boat on the trailer and set them about an inch from the boat. honestly, since the pvc has flex, you could have them touch the boat. they work great and make solo ramp trips MUCH easier
