1989 to 2005 not so different

That is a really awesome pick!! Wish I could get a side by side between my two Grady's, but I do not have a trailer for the 265. Other then the hull form, the boats are very similar, Grady has been very conservative in their changes over the years, but they always put out some classics.

The big difference..

is the PRICE!!! :shock: I just got back from visiting my daughter in D.C. and decided to go to the boat show. The Marlin there listed for just short of 200K! You could by it at the show for a steal of 167K. I recently purchased a 1990 Sailfish Sportbridge 252G, the price was under 30K including the 3K trailer. the boat was maintained nicely as I can see you have done. Aside from newer electronics and a change in cosmetics, there really wasn't a thing different between my boat and the Marlin. The size of the cabin, stand up head, etc. and the layout are identical to mine. Maybe I'll buy a house with the savings!
