    Furuno 1610 compatibility

    Pete, Great info. I don't think I was clear enough (I shouldn't post so late at night!). I have a 1610 Plotter and a separate Furuno fish finder. I called Furuno and no one makes a card for it. I have scoured the internet for hours and came up with nothing. I can't remember if I called...

    Furuno 1610 compatibility

    I bought a '99 Voyager this fall with a Furuno 1610 GPS and a fish finder. The boat came from the coast and will now spend its time in Lake Erie. I would like to have the chart plotting capability from the unit, but no one on this earth (that is selling in English anyway) has a chart card for...

    Grady 258 & 282 input

    Is trailering in excess of 8'6" an issue in MI? It is a big deal here in Ohio especially if you need to hit the turnpike.

    Grady 258 & 282 input

    I drove 1100 miles to get my Voyager (same as the Journey) back in October. Long drive, but worth it for a perfect machine at an unreal price. I had considered an islander for better on board livability, but ended up going with the Voyager for the lower operating cost and better performance...

    Grady Merchandise?

    I ordered about a month ago. FYI, last time I checked, the online store was not showing all of the available items. :doh I called them and they emailed me a number of additional items not shown.

    Long Trailer Mfg

    Thanks for the #! I hope someone can help me. The winch is mounted at the top of the post so that it will line-up with the bow ring. It seems too high to me, but there is no way to avoid doing this to make everything line-up. Never Enough - Can you send me photos of your set-up?

    Long Trailer Mfg

    If all the parts are custom, that's bad news bc I think they went out of business. Can anyone confirm? Website no longer works and the phone number just rings with no message. The trailer is a roller. If I move the winch down the pulpit will still hit the winch mounting post.

    Long Trailer Mfg

    Did they go out of business? If so, did someone buy them? My Voyager has a Long trailer and I don't like the set-up. It sits really high off the trailer and the pulpit interferes with the winch when launching and retrieving. Since they are out of NC, I thought I might be able to contact them...

    Looked at a Grady White and NEED help. NEW OWNER!!

    Re: Looked at a Grady White and NEED help. Pics enclosed. If Grady put that wood in over the tank, be absolutely certain that it does not come in direct contact the tank. I know from personal experience that pressure treated lumber and moisture will corrode through a tank in a few years.

    Trailer plate for out of state purchase?

    Yes, Erie; just west of Cleveland. I'd like to trailer it, but the electric winch is a slow PIA. We might rack it in the summer and bring home in the off season.

    Trailer plate for out of state purchase?

    The owner let me use his tag. I'm a 1st time 1999 GW Voyager owner!! Trailered from FL to OH. Flawless experience.

    Trailer plate for out of state purchase?

    I was able to confirm the BoS being sufficient. That $10 might be money well spent to avoid a headache. What exactly is a "tax collectors office?" Is this part of the DMV or title office?

    Trailer plate for out of state purchase?

    You could be right, but I can't imagine covering all those states without a plate. Anyone know for sure?

    Trailer plate for out of state purchase?

    If I buy a boat and trailer out of Florida and trailer it home (to another state), what do I do for the trailer plate?

    98+ transom stringer issues

    I have been looking for a 98+ Grady because all have been constructed with XL plywood. I know this does not 100% guarantee no structural issues, but to me it gives great piece of mind. With that said, do any of you know of owners that have had 98+ boats with transom or stringer issues? If so...

    Grady Islander performance #'s

    abielecki - Thanks. Let me know what you come up with. BobP - Already have a 20ft overnighter w/ a 200. Too small for what I want, but not yet too painfully expensive to operate! My threshhold is higher, but not 20gph at cruise higher.
