Good to hear that KY! I have been checking reviews and seems some folks having issues with some bulging tires, buts seems most complaints were within the first 200 miles or so. I am pretty sure I will go for the GY's this time as I just found them $50 cheaper on discount tire online. Just need...

Well, seems it was time again to face the dreaded tire change! I know they say to change your tires every 4 years. I knew I was close being 3.5 years now on my new tires that came on the trailer. Running this weekend to the coast which is about 165 miles, I made it about 100 of those miles in...

Grey, I have same boat, without the tower but with Radar. I make a PVC support from bow to stern and put a 25'x30' tarp over it. By the way, what motors do you have?

I have the 252G model with twin 200hp HPDI's and could not or would not want less HP and torque. The performance is outstanding! Out of the hole and on plane very fast, like 3 seconds even with full fuel/load and 49mph top end. I would love to repower, and the only 200hp option out there are...

I'm in!

Yes, Formica.

You could use a laminate instead. I did that on my transom and it has held up great and easy to keep clean.

I wonder more about the UV protection. I recall Epoxy by itself has no UV protection and deteriorates in the sun pretty quickly, but does the varnish have any protection?

That is the same one for my hatch in cabin. Good find.

If you use lag bolts, over time they will loosen, then water will get into core and rot, not including your safety for loose lag bolts while climbing aboard . Hard to imagine can't get to them from underside, but have seen issues like this before. Are there no access hatches/ports near this area...

I replaced mine with a normal bathroom faucet I purchased from Lowes. Like $20 or so. Low cost and have been fine for several years now.

It looked like someone was attempting to patch the cracks? What was that brown stuff?

Check the MFD settings and make sure they are not too much gain. Maybe verify if set to Auto and then see if it is better.

Not to add any fire more to this thread, but just caught up to it and find lots of comments interesting. One point worth mentioning in my case. When I bought my Grady, my SS trim tabs were corroded through...yep, had holes in them from corrosion. Had to buy new one's as could not stand the...

Agree with Hookup1, always go with metal over any type of plastic. Many boats have sunk due to plastics failures. Marelon is tough, but not best choice. When I purchased my Grady used, 2 though hulls, original from factory that were plastic were cracked. One above line was also cracked and...

I installed the Johnson Pump model years ago and it is very loud. Mounted it to my helm area. Pretty sure I would hear it if sleeping in the berth. I have had to replace it once when I tested it and it was not sensing. The sensor has to stay clean also and you should check it periodically. For...

Hey Dennis, I just purchased a new Ongaro twin horn as mine finally just was not working well anymore. Installed it and wow, it is loud! Now, why is that? I took apart my old one and hmmm, maybe a good reason why the sound was muted! Now, the question is how to stop bugs from building nests...

Anyone know of or had any experience with a good mechanic in Morehead City area? Looking for one that is well experienced with the HPDI motors to help trouble shoot issue I am having with one of my motors that is shaking too much. I have tried a lot of variables and just can't seem to find the...

It gets very humid in summer here in NC. I have gone through many iterations of ways to keep the humidity down in the cabin and control mildew/mold. The dehumidifiers do work, rigged to drain in the sink, however I was only able to get about a year or so before they quit. But, I still had mold...
