I shipped my grady from NJ to Blaine, WA using a shipper I found via uShip. They were called ShipNewEngland and were really great. They picked up the boat on time, dropped it off on time, were really friendly and stayed in email/phone contact at least daily. When I picked a shipper I was really...

Here's my situation: 1. I have an Offshore with a F225 on a grady drive bracket 2. I want a kicker for trolling and saftey. I have the opportunity to pick up a Yamaha T9.9 XL 25" shaft (remote throttle) at a very reasonable price. However, the model pre-dates power trim. 3. I do a lot of...

Wow, the bottom looks great on your boat now! You did a great job. Thanks again for the advice Tim. Seems like you've been down the path I'm travelling now.

Hi all, I have now gotten to the point in my restoration where I am going to strip the bottom paint off my '88 offshore. It is coming off in 4 inch square chunks right down to the gel coat in some places, so it is definitely due. I would estimate that there are approximately 3000 coats...

I have an '88 Offshore and just replaced the thru-Transom scuppers. On my boat, I used Attwood model number 3881-1. This model has a hose barb at the end to accomodate 1 1/2" hose. According to the catalogue, it is 6 1/4" in length, has a flange diameter of 2 7/8", goes in a 2" cut out hole and...

Roger that. Thanks again Tim!

Tim, am I safe in assuming that you chose the Perko fitting with the 1 7/8 flange OD (requiring 1 5/16 mounting hole)? Where did you get the elbow that you show in your post? Thanks again, -- James

Tim, thanks a million. You probably saved me half a dozen aggravating phone calls and a weeks' worth of waiting. I'll learn from your experience and buy the through hull. -- James

Hi all, I broke the fishbox drain (the one inside the box) while undertaking the fabulously entertaining task of changing the thru hulls on my '88 Offshore. Does anyone know where I can get a new one?. It is a grey plastic fitting with 1" threaded post, has a flush flange and has a sort of...

Thanks Scott, I appreciate the advice!

Hi all, I'm a long-time Great Grady lurker and a first time poster. I have just purchased an '88 offshore with a single 2005 Yamaha F225 (4 stroke) on a bracket. The motor is currently propped with a 14 1/4 X 20 (pitch) stainless 3 blade. As is, it doesn't get the RPMs I would like. It tops out...
