Just a thought, check to make sure you don't have the plug in the fishbox or storage areas in case some rain rain has settled. Otherwise, can you access your 272 under the deck berth and with a flashlight look back into the areas under the deck, especially on the starboard side where the wiring...

Hi Dennis, we are talking same area. Maybe I was over explaning it to ensure full picture. Yeah, there is a slight gap, so some water under pressure in the seas would wash up under and also does so over top of platform and then should drain back out. Even if get mascara there, I get that anyhow...

Thanks for input Dennis. Yeah, the top of the bracket at the transom is sealed. That is good to keep dirt out from getting wedged and that line of caulk always stays in great shape as there is no flexing in that area. On the sides, under the platform, it has filler boards out of starboard and...

Unfortunately, I did not.

I have the Lewmar Delta type anchor and most all boats around this are with anchor on pulpit use the same, especially if you go to the marina where the Grady Dealer is, I think nearly every Grady has this same anchor. That is why I tried it and I have to say, it sticks every time so far, even...

Hi Dennis, seems my post of pics got lost in the transfer over to the new site format. Reposting. The configuration of this is basically just the Springfield Aluminum bracket and Grady made a full platform that mounts over the top. I had recored the platform a few years back and gelcoated...

Ok, so yeah, no heads up on this change. What a difference! Looks like Gmail. Anyhow, Got it to work on this PC without too much trouble, but my travel laptop is still using the old format and says Sorry, but this board is currently unavailable, but yet I am on it right now in parallel. What...

Cobra, here is some reading along the lines of what you are inquiring about from this previous post: https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/bow-pulpit-restoration-and-new-windlass-install.19666/#post-120983

Guys, curios if your full swim platform is fully caulked all around, including across the top of the bracked in the motor well? When I got mine, it was sealed and I have continued to reseal when working on the platform, etc. However, I wonder if it should not be caulked and allow the water to...

A Pic would help us more if you can provide one.

I wonder what the OP has, starboard or the old resin stuff I had. Jcacchio, what material is yours currently? I wouldn't think Starboard would crack? I have 3/4" starboard and for that thickness, I didn't oversize since the screws are tapered heads and rely upon the hole to not be too oversized...

Not sure what you have now, but I replaced mine with Starboard and see the new boats have done the same. It is doing great so far. Order the size you need from Boat Outfitters, Starboard cut to size, and if you have a router, you can round the edges as needed or they can do it for you also. They...

I have always noted a sound similar to what you describe on mine as well. Sometimes, it sounds like a whale call! Always chalked it up to the sound the thru hulls were making with the water rushing past them. Several years now and no issues found. Just the sound and not in all conditions do I...

Thanks buddy, send you a PM.

Thanks Rangoonb, sure, I would be interested in one for sure. Just let me know what you need?

Thanks Jim, that looks good! I do not overnight and favor rod and storage use in the cabin for my style. I think if I extend out one rod, it won't come out too far if I did want to lay down though. All along that v-berth shelf, I have lined it with many tackle bags and 3470 boxes, so when...

One thing to mention is when I was doing the water testing, I did get some water seepage around the window channels, thus why I replaced those channels. However, I could never get water to come in the cabin with a hose. Figured what was happening is when running offshore in seas, the...

Anyone ever broken off the original style plastic rod holder hooks that are under the walkway in the cabin? I just broke one off last week in rough seas due to my TLD50 Bend Butt rod being too heavy I guess. Thinking of making an alternate out of Starboard this winter as a project, but would...

Not sure where or if you have shopped for the anchor rode, but checking back I got mine from Seco South. https://cableloft.com/anchor-rodes.html Lots of folks recommended and price could not be met with any other place I checked. Checking now on the 8 plait, 1/2" with 15' of 1/4" galv. High...

Yes, very true statement that I should have underlined and bolded!
