Why touch up, or replace the stripes at all? Take em off! "I think she looks better naked". I'd post pics of my boat to show her off, but forgot how.... :? But click here and scroll down a bit, and there are pics of my "Naked Lady" viewtopic.php?f=3&t=13464

Just MHO but I do not recommend filling the tanks for the winter....I think it is a problem waiting to occur. I do NOT fill the tanks for winter storage anymore. Not since Ethanol was introduced several years ago... I leave both tanks as close to EMPTY as possible, and add an overdose of...

whats that ring for? Inside the racor replacement filter box is a pack with a new rubber seal that goes on top of the fitler to seal it against the filter housing when its' screwed hand-tight, and another thin rubber seal that goes between the ("glass") plastic bowl and the bottom of the...

Fish or Fuc*? Why did you buy this boat, do you want to Fish, or Fuc* in it? The Trophy Pro is an awesome day-trip fishing machine. It's not an overnighter. It's big enough to take 3 buddies out to slay the Tuna offshore, and small enough to take out solo whenever the mood strikes. It...

First, troule-shoot the problem you now have as Freddy mentioned above. If you determine that the pump is indeed shot, remove it and bring it to your local West Marine or your favorite marine supply store. They will have either a Jabsco or Shurflo of a similar type. Get the highest pressure...

NICE boat, best of luck with her. You are gonna LOVE the Garmin GHP10 Autopilot! Just installed one this year and can't believe I went 19 seasons without one on this boat! Of course, 20 years ago the technology wasn't there either...you just tied a rope off to the steering wheel... :)

If it's a '95, it's about time to replace. Just did mine for the 4th time in 20 years....you are doing good if yours lasted 10 years.

"The Marlins fish fighting cockpit is incredible, for a 30' ride. That's what I love about my Trophy Pro. HUGE cockpit for a 25 footer.

Agreed, I usually work the closer areas before running that far for Stripers, but The Rocks is where the hot bite has been lately. It's about 15 miles to the Schrewsbury Rocks from Manasquan, and its' what, 7 miles from Barnegat inlet to Manasquan? So going 22 miles or so FOR STRIPERS is a...

30 Marlin : "Trolled past the Finest Kind a few times this past Sunday at the Shrewsberry Rocks. It looked pretty good." Thank you! I remember seeing at least 2 Marlins in the area that day, What is the name of the boat were you on, and how did you do that day? It was slow for me, only...

Busterblue, sorry to hijack your thread. Thanks to all for the compliments. more pics here: http://www.greatgrady.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13661 Re the garboard drain, It's hard to see on the pic of the bracket being installed, but the bottom of the "V" of the bracket is actually right...

If you go just a few miles further north, try the Mantoloking pipe, great structure to fish. You will see it on a chart, it extends straight out from the beach out to 70 foot dephts. When you get there you will see it on your fishfinder, it comes up off the bottom a good 3 feet or so and always...

Very nice, I like the stripe-less look!

Hot Striper bite at the Shrewsbury Rocks (NJ) this spring, here are some pics my buddy took while I was there trolling on 5/16/10. Note Finest Kind is stripe-less this Spring: Here is what the screen looked like just before both rods trolling the stretch 25 plugs went off...

Re: No problem on the hijack, that is a beauty YES, it definately will raise up your stern. Look at the pic above of my scupper height taken with full gas tanks. Even with full gas tanks, my boat sits in the slip such that rainwater collects and is pumped out of the forward bilge pump, not...

Thank you Bob, I think I'll keep this Gal! This is my 20th season with her...it's a long term relationship! :) Here is a pic of the Hermco bracket being installed. Note the deep V design.

Thanks Bob. Here ya go: With canvas and outriggers intalled before canvas and outriggers And this pic of the scupper height was taken last season with FULL GAS TANKS

Re: Wow Thanks, I like the way the transom turned out too. Don't even think about going with wood again, I already did that and already made that mistake for you to learn from :) I replaced my original transom with one made of"marine" plywood with a teak vernier several years ago, it...
