    fishing line replacement question

    I am not a big fan of braid on those reels. I had about a 150 lb lemon shark take my bait and make a mess of the line. If you catch a good size fish and try to put some drag on him the braid kind of packs down in the reel and can wind up a mess. I am curious if other guys have had the problem...

    Bow Thruster

    Had a 330 express with bow thruster and it was easier to dock than my 20 ft bay boat. You could teach almost anyone to dock it with a bow thruster. It really shines when the winds are blowing.

    250HP Yamaha HPDI thoughts

    It's a loaded question. If you asked this question on a forum with a lot of readers you would wear yourself out. Being a 2004 it is pot luck you may get a good one or you may not. If it is the boat you want and the price works go for it you can always find parts that hopefully you will not need...

    fishing line replacement question

    Spawn bag has it pretty good but a lot depends on your type of fishing. Big money tuna or fine dinner tuna 8) I would not sacrifice for the cost of the line especially if you spend a lot in fuel to go get them. Inshore day of fun with grouper, smaller tuna ect. I would do like spawn bag all...

    Boat detailing on Long Island

    Not sure of who in your area but if you have the work's to be done in and out including aluminum you can plan on around $30 per ft. for quality boat detailing. Just be careful with the typical car detailer the price may be too good to be true.

    Portable jump starter?

    I have done it the way Slacktime stated with no issues. Of course leaving the dock with healthy batteries. One product we just purchased but have not used is the AGA jump start. Very cool in a small case with adapters for all kinds of stuff like laptops, phones etc. The one we have is rated at...

    What wax do you like?

    You have to let me know how you make out with that. I just used the Woody Wax on my nonskid and it worked ok. I used just a small amount and brushed it like instructions say and it turned out nice. Next time I will try a bit more see if it turns out better.

    What wax do you like?

    I like to wax the hull on my boat every other month if not every month. Twice a year I don't mind paying the pro's but every month or so its nice to just do a quick wax with the orbital. I am trying to find a wax that comes off easy without breaking my you know what's. Anyone have a favorite?

    Is Grady Quality still There?

    Please tell me who to talk to at Grady because the only response I get when I call is i have to go through a dealer. The dealer ruined the cushion in our cabin and Grady does not have it anymore so they expect me to pay 9k and replace them all ????? The boat was a late model 07 purchased end of...

    Is Grady Quality still There?

    For me I now own my first Grady. We purchased a 07 330 express and after owning several other boats I find the quality of the boat very nice. Of course not perfect but find me one that is. There is definitely room for improvement but that could fall on where they get some of the products from...

    330 express vs 360 express

    Thats a good point. The transport could be a great deal cheaper than most repairs on these boats. Very good advise I appreciate it thank you for taking the time.

    330 express vs 360 express

    I actually would prefer the 250's the trouble has been finding one that has been kept nice or with the age they are at the point where everything starts to break. I would love to go cabo with diesel's but we are too shallow with too many rocks so we have to have outboards. Anything that drafts...

    Experience with Express 330

    I purchased a 2007 330 express with 250's on it. Boat was first titled in 2009 with about 40k in upgrades and I just put another 12k in it. Boat has everything and looks like a new boat. Motors have 75 hrs and she is a beauty. Diesel generator, chill plates in fish boxes, open array radar...
