Being a auto mechanic I knew what it was. Its a heat transfer paste. We use it to transfer heat away from electrical components to a...

    Autopilot Compass Location on Grady 330 Express

    Where did you install the SCX20. I'm in the process right now. I planned on putting it on the hard top to the port side of the radar strut. I called Furuno to see if the radar would be an issue, they did not recommend having it under the radar beam. Said it could loose satellites due to the...

    Inflatable Options

    Drbatts that may have been me with the Marlin, I designed this and had it fabricated, all anodized aluminum and fully removable. Worked great but cost a fortune.

    My 330 is an 01, My deck was soft, caulk was terrible so I removed it to recore the deck panel. After opening up I was shocked at all the dirt and mildew plus some corrosion. Pumped the tank dry and removed it. It really wasn't that bad. I took it to my shop and pressured washed it with hot...

    Underwater lights?

    I had 2 Ocean LEDS under the boat, looked great, until one lost the hole LED part, fell off. I went for my lungs and bought 6 Lumitec Seablaze X2. 2 are going under the boat to replace the old lights and 4 on the transom. I had Lumitec on my Marlin and they were great. Expensive but worth it...
