Hi Jimmy. Welcome back

At Grady, my guess is the bracket boats are the afterthought. I imagine the open-transom mounted engines were the only way of making them when the original molds were built, and until Grady redesigned the molds when they went to the Euro Transom style (1990?), the bracket boats and the open...

My boat has them too, standard Grady install for boats of this era with bracket. Weight of the lead shot in the front of the boat helps reduce slamming and helps counteract the add'l weight "added" to the back of the boat due to leverage of the motors sitting farther away from the transom due to...

Re: Electronics box looks nice, good job on the install! The puter fan may not hold up long in the salt air tho...

Just be careful when mounting speakers in the helm area. The magnets in the speakers WILL *uck up your compass if too close!

Nautical Marine Canvas in Point Pleasant. Just off Rt 35, 1/8 mile north of the intersection of Rt 88. Mike does EXCELLENT work, and has very resonable prices.

Quick and easy fix, I did this on my boat this past spring. On my boat, the original pipes ran under the gunnels, I am sure you can run the new hoses under the gunnels on your rig without any issues. Just zip-tie everything nice and neat under there. Measure the length from the helm to the...

Did you try "Mr. Cleans Magic Eraser"? Works wonders on a lot of items.

Hiya Jimmy, Hope all is well for you and yours. My Garmin GPS plotter is the 2010C model. (discontinued as it is several years old now). Here are the specs: http://www8.garmin.com/products/gpsmap2010/spec.html Works great and is the best fishing tool on the boat. Perfect for...

The title of this post "HPDI vs ETEC" reminded me of this... My friend has an 87 Trophy Pro which he repowered with brand new 200 HP Yami HPDI's in the 2006 season. One calm day this past summer we met out on the Ocean and had a "drag race"...both boats had 2 people on them and both of us...

Hiya Kenny, been lurkin here on and off in between fishing this season, and a good season it was. Caught some nice Stripers, Blues, Fluke and Seabass inshore, and took her out to the Hudson Canyon for Tuna and Dolphin and offshore for Shark a few times as well. Too bad it's all over now (MAN...

When my leaky bracket was replaced last winter, we saw that the leaks were coming in from around the mounting bolts. The dis-similar metals sitting in saltwater causes galvanic corrosion and naturally the lower noble alluminum corrodes away first before the steel bolts. This is why my...

Great Website, glad I finally found it. My current Grady is a 1988 Trophy Pro 259G Named "Finest Kind", because it is, and I try to keep it that way :) This is my second Grady, my first was a 1988 204C overnighter that was also a great boat, but tragically burned down to the hull in a...
