New to the site, but not to boating. Ah the age old question. do you get a boat more suited for fishing or try and keep the wife happy and get a cruising/fishing express. Any input from owner of either would be greatly appreciated, especially considering the expense of these things.

Also, anyone know of any Grady dealer on the entire east coast ( I am willing to travel for a deal) that is known to give good deals. I would not mind a leftover or demo .

I'm looking at a 33 express right now. We fish out of MD and weather in fall can be cold and nasty. Have a 272 sailfish now and love having the cabin room. I would think it is all a preference on needs and how u will use the boat and where. Good luck!

I had a 2007 330 express and in one year i gave it in and got the 336. In my opinion the 336 rides better than the 330 in a snotty weather.

I'm looking at a 330 express right now and plan to use it 60-70% for offshore fishing. I like to stay dry and having the full helm area enclosed is nice - at least it is in my sailfish. I also like to have the comforts and room below offered in the express model and love the fact you can have air condition in the helm area (which is avail in both models). Both seem like great boats!
