First of all let me thank everyone for their input. I have a 2000 248 Voyager with a 250Yamaha OX66, it runs fine and is reliable for our needs to date.I accept the reality I am one outing away from a repower but I have a fantastic mechanic who tends to this engine twice a year. If anyone in the...

Has anyone installed something akin to air conditioning in a cuddy cabin model Grady-White. My wife has asthma and I need to install a reliable cooling system or sell the boat. We have had cruisers with A/C but we are both pushing 80 and I want something I can trailer, not be tied to a marina...

Is my reaction to this year's Sea-Tow bill warranted? I opened the envelope and my eyes lit up!! What? $249.00!! I've had Sea-Tow since 2003 and love the comfort of knowing rescue is yes, just a phone call away. But the escalation....please!!

Seems to me if you are posting/commenting here (this forum) the lane is Grady-White boats. Due to my age and being in suburban New York the street vernacular and interpretation may be different but a "lane" would be like a train of thought or subject idea. Anyway maybe I just have time since it...

Try King Marine, Verplanck, NY (914) 737-4306...Randy King - He has a boat salvage yard

Donated and sent you an email under separate cover. If you are adding up your boating costs this is one of your best ROI's! Actually if you are adding up your boating costs you should probably look for another hobby!

As fate would have it, one of my guides broke before I even realized they were under the boat! I have now been sent a replacement guide which they told me has an "orange" cap. My first thought was OK, I'll just spray it white and be done with it. Then I thought, "it is going to be on the right...

Hopefully this will be our first season trailering around the Northeast to boat the big lakes. For the best use of the guides how much space should there be between the guide and the rub rail. It is set now about 2" from the rub rail.

Has anyone installed the SureShade power shade for their cockpit? How difficult is the installation? Can you run with the shade in place over your cockpit? TIA

Yes, there is a feature where you can connect with "friends" and see where each of you are and set ETA times. I haven't gotten into the meat of what it can do but it was very highly rated by AAA as a nautical aid. From what I was able to do on board the ship it will almost replace your chart...

Argo is a free app for your phone which I "found" via an email from AAA. I came across it while on a cruise to the Bahamas and was able to download it aboard the ship. I was then able to track the ship, speed, depth of waters we were in, course headings, nautical miles from anywhere - yeah it...

I just found the Argo app, which I can't wait to use this season. So how late to the party am I?

First Winter with the boat home on the trailer. It is parked in the backyard so do I leave the trailer sitting on the grass or would it be better to slip 12" square patio blocks under each tire. Or should I block the trailer and bring the tires inside?

Phil Catalano & Sons, Greenwich, CT. Well established really nice people. Friendly to deal with.

So here are my gages. I obviously need to spend more time on task. The fuel icon is almost in bold. The temp reading looks a little wonky, is there supposed to be a number there rather than a "blob?"

Oh my, I may have mistaken "trim" for the fuel gauge reading. But there shouldn't be anywhere near a full tank of gas in it. Thanks for the lead...

On the premise there are no dumb questions: where do I find my fuel guage? I have a 2000 248 Voyager with a Yamaha SWS 250OX66 and have 2 circular guages at the helm. The one on the left seems to show time, distance, battery charging and trim...the guage on the right show tach...I have a main...

I'm following this one for sure...what size prop are you currently running? I've got the same setup circa 2000 but haven't been out in it long enough to start my data base....

Long story short, that is exactly what has happened after the dealer I bought it from said they would take care of it! It is due back to my mechanic tomorrow, thanks for taking the time for your reply.

Small problem regarding my propeller: the prop presently on the motor (250hp Yamaha 2 stroke) is unfit to be reconditioned. I bought the boat in May, we have been out once for maybe a half hour, the trim/tilt motor went upon retrieving the boat back onto the trailer. I've been awaiting parts and...
