    2003 Grady White Express 33 with Suzuki 350 duoprop

    I agree with the above comment. Those LU shavings look excessive. I would save and document that in the event a warranty claim comes up. And I guess you are comfortable exceeding the rated HP maximum for your hull. I bet you now have a race car there compared to your previous engines. I...

    I think that looks perfect.

    Diesel Gen fuel filter

    On my 2006 F Panda, I use a Racor "R11T" which is a small 10 micron in a metal housing. No bigger than a half beer can. Installs brown side up.

    Trailer Bunk Set-Up for a 330 Express

    Oh Man, Choogenboom you made my day! Thank you so much for this. You are exactly the guy I was searching for in the Forum. Like my boat, my trailer is an identical twin to yours (aluminum I beam). Per my inquiry to GW, the Livewell drain (starboard side) is 11 feet from the transom and serves...

    Trailer Bunk Set-Up for a 330 Express

    Thank you for this. This will be just a service trailer. I'm not going to haul it more than a 1/4 mile. I have the bunks set up as per GW's spec. but am looking for a 330 Owner who has a trailer and might share photos or measurements. Once I get the boat on the trailer, I will be adjusting...

    Trailer Bunk Set-Up for a 330 Express

    Looking for advice here... I just purchased a 3 axle 18,000# capacity Venture aluminum I Beam Trailer for my 330. I think I have it set up pretty well but am looking to fine tune it. If you have the measurements or a photo of your bunk placement for your 330, I'd love to see them. Thank you...

    330 Express New Props

    Years ago (like 6?) I converted from 3 blade to 4 blades on my then F250 powered 330 (2005 TXR's in 3.3L). Specifically, I went with 4 blade 16" pitch Offshore props by PowerTech. These props have a 15.25 diameter. For reference, part # OFS416P-CLYX200. I then repowered to F300's last July...

    Fisher Panda Generator issue

    My input - you have a blown fuse going to (not in) the Generator. And I bet your 2014 panel is just fine. Suggestion: Carefully remove the panel that your two Perko switches are mounted to. Then look for a very thick RED cable that has a 100 amp fuse on it. It will be within a foot of the...

    GPS Boat Tracker

    Sorry about the Crickets comment. Guess it's just a slow time of year for some of us. You obviously were busy. I will just say this - It is sad, very sad, with what is going on in our country right now. The thieves take what ever they want and are not held accountable. Law enforcement is...

    GPS Boat Tracker

    If you want someone on land (or sea) to be able to track your boat, from a public and free site such as Marinetraffic.com, then you simply want to install a Class B AIS Transponder.

    Lower unit stuck

    That Lower Unit may not have been removed for ten years (long before you bought it). It might be welded in place by now. You could destroy the engine trying to do what you want to do. I agree with the above recommendation to use it until something happens. Yamaha impellers are over built. I...

    New engines?

    My opinion: not worth the risk. They are not new engines. In a few weeks, they will be 8 years old. And I would never buy an 8 year old engine with only 100 hours. Like others above, I would also be suspicious they went under water. For about $10K more, you can really get "new" engines...

    Yamaha F250 is putting a white smoke (allmost looks like steam) from the exhaust.

    I had a similar condition and hope yours is not the same (in one of my 2006 F250's). It took a awhile but I ultimately determined I was getting water in my engine oil from a leaking powerhead gasket. I recommend you periodically check the color of your engine oil to see if it starts lightening...

    Horn

    Totally agree that they all SUCK. Buy a pneumatic hand held boat horn at West Marine and you're all set.

    Considering upgrading to a 30 Marlin from a 265 Express

    All of the above is excellent advice. I went from a 265 to a 330 and am super happy. The Marlin, the 305 are excellent choices. The 330 is a beast and does what they do a little better. It just comes down to finding the right boat I guess. One piece of advice - I'd stay clear of the Yamaha...

    330 Express Windlass Breaker Question

    Thank you Skunkboat. Next I need to determine what Amp size I need for the Bussmann 185... For the "Windlass" and "Main" - Each are 2 gauge wire (heavy stuff). If anyone has done this on a 330, please advise. Thanks,

    330 Express Windlass Breaker Question

    I have owned my 2006 330 now for 12 years and am embarrassed to ask this question now. Hopefully someone here can set me straight. In the port stern cockpit are the Battery Selector switches. On each side of each Battery Switch is a RED circle looking thing. About the size of a quarter or...
