    2007 Marlin Head Discharge

    As mentioned, those are your sensors - yes, they are labelled. They just fit in there by friction. Look at the tank - you'll be able to see how much fluid is in there. Might need to shine a flashlight through the side. The answer could be as simple as the fluid hasn't reached a high enough...

    Canyon 336- anyone know what this is?

    It may be MEANT for a ball holder... but you can use it for anything you want. I kinda like the wine bottle holder idea!

    Rocker Switch Fuse - 2009 307

    You should never put two fuses in a line. You already have a breaker (the thing that is tripping above the rocker switch). What is that breaker rated at - is it appropriate for the gauge wire you used? I would start by getting rid of the fuse, or bypassing the breaker and then using the fuse...

    New to us - 2008 336 Canyon

    Ah, gotcha. I thought you were just going after the "LED" thing. Didn't realize those buttons were getting gummy on you. Looks like Skunk's got you covered. I've seen his post before about that - I've never seen anyone say anything negative about him or the process. If I needed one, I'd get...

    New to us - 2008 336 Canyon

    Can you just replace the bulb inside it with an LED bulb? From your post, it sounds like the main goal is to get the helm light to be LED? Question... do you use the helm light for long periods of time with the engines off? If not, don't worry about it as the engines are charging your...

    Canyon 336- anyone know what this is?

    I see it, now. Maybe a cupholder? Is there mention of it in your owner's manual - maybe a parts section, if it has it?

    Canyon 336- anyone know what this is?

    No idea. There is no description or picture.

    '95 268 Islander

    When you do the math and add up all the things that OCNSLR kindly listed for you, what weight do you get? Post that and then we give a more accurate recommendation. FYI, the way you wrote "So I should be looking at a 6000lb capacity trailer minimum"... I, too, thought you meant that 6K would...

    1986 25 sailfish

    They're flat glass, right? Make a template from cardboard and take it to a local glass shop.

    OX66 Overheat Question

    Impeller... don't forget to check the housing and wear plate. Any scratch that you even just barely get your fingernail caught in is too big.

    Anchor, chain, & rope for ‘86 198 tournament with “Grady Drive”

    There can be lot's of answers to your question. This is very much an opinion-based topic. And to an extent, the type of anchor is largely dependent on the seafloor. But to give a general answer... Get a fluke-style anchor, 6' of 1/4" chain, and enough line to be at least 5-times the depth of...

    Any 330 owners have a Good F850 windlass

    Bingo. I think that's the issue right there. There's really nothing that a windlass would do - specifically the gypsy - to cause the issue you have. Good catch, Doc. Unfortunately, I've noticed a few Grady's with what I would call 'less then adequate' locker space for rode. I don't know if...

    Any 330 owners have a Good F850 windlass

    From what you wrote, it sounds like the issue is with the line, not the gypsy. Straighten the line out by letting it trail behind the boat for a few minutes. It's also a good idea to wash your line once in a while, then soak in fabric softener. Good makes excellent windlasses. I don't...

    208 Adventure thru Stainless thru hulls

    SS does not have a "finish". However, you may have chromed bronze. Functionally, these are actually better than SS. The downside, is that to make bronze look 'pretty' for people, it needs the chrome. Chrome is not very durable and it starts to pit. You can try buffing them and it may help...

    Pressurized Water and hot water System

    George, I don't think anyone is arguing whether the boats have the hookup or not - at least not from my perspective. It's more about being SURPRISED that the boats don't have them. Until I came to Grady, it's been pretty much a standard thing. I'm sure there are other boats that don't have it...

    Simrad GO size does it matter?

    You don't have a signature, so I don't know what year your Offshore is... which could differentiate the dash layout you have. But for me, 9" would be the biggest I would recommend. I have a 12" chartplotter right now and while I'm OK with it, if anyone else drives the boat it is kind of big...

    Pressurized Water and hot water System

    Thinking about this again... I still find that strange, you know? I honestly can't think of another boat that I've seen (with hot/cold water) that didn't have the hookup (and certainly, by no means, have I seen everything). Maybe Grady expects their customers to be out using the boat all time...

    Pressurized Water and hot water System

    Nope. There are boats that don't have any of those things - plenty of them - even if they have hot/cold water. Been on them and worked on them - quite a few. The pump can act as the check valve. Many boats don't use a expansion tank (or mixer valve), at all. I'm not saying this from theory...

    Pressurized Water and hot water System

    Wow, I find that odd. I believe you - just find it odd. I've NEVER owned a boat with a hot/cold water system that DIDN'T have a dockside hookup. I've had boats with a cold water only system that didn't have the hookup - but never one with a full system.

    2007 Marlin Front Bilge Pump

    I think I may be saying the same thing as Seasick, but... "The float switch wires were not connected directly to the pump" In regards to the old/existing float switch wires... One of them will be a constant hot and the other is a ground. Using a voltmeter, check to see which one is the +12V...
