    Helm seats on the 282

    I had the same issue on Gulfstream and Sailfish-the dealer has a flat plastic bushing as mentioned earlier that will fix the problem - as I recall there are two sized so bring the diameter of you seat pedestal.

    2003 Grady White Sailfish Purchase

    I got a 2004 2 years ago and have had virtually no major issue. The only thing that was not working correctly on mine was the remote raio switch which the dealer took care of. Check the waterpumps, pumps, swithces etc and you should be good to go. The Sailfish is a great boat and you will...

    my dog & my grady

    My dog used to be able to go all night - if we were traveling for a few day we would build our plans around where we could get him on a dock so that he could get a walk in and do hit business. It is not easy but it is do-able with right planning. Even if you are on a mooring overnight there is...

    Shrinkwrap

    The only issue Ive had removing is with the engines. The wrap can stick to it and actual peel of the finish on the decals. They have been using a seperate plastic pad the last few years to prevent this.

    Rear Coaming Bolster

    You will probably be surprised how much rust you find on the clips. I've had to replace mine on a 2004 282 and they were pretty much disintergrated.

    NEW MOTOR FOR GULFSTREAM

    Not sure on the etech , I looked into putting a 350 Yamaha 4 stroke on a 2004 and the dealer told me the transom would not handle it. It was not a weight issue since the 23 can handle twins. I believe he said it was a torque or thrust issue. The twins could be up to 400 HP but there torque /...
