Grady White Weekender Owners - Please Help!

[jallison27]

I became the proud owner of a 1981 24ft Grady White Weekender this weekend. Boat is in rough shape (sat in woods for 8yrs) but price was right (free). The boat has a bracket set up for outboards with closed transom but pretty much everything else is missing (steering, switches, rod holders, lights, etc).

Wiring part I think I can figure out pretty easily, but..there is 2 holes in the bottom of the boat that I have no clue what they are for (I take that back, I know 1 would be for the salt water washdown, but none of the fittings are there). So basically don't know what it "should" look like.

Hoping another owner has manual/guides, etc or could take pictures in there transom or bilge areas to give me an idea on what was there.

Any information about the boat would be helpful.

Thanks!

You got this one, didn't you?

You're probably right about one thru-hull being for the washdown/livewell. My guess is the other was from a thru-hull transducer.

While I admire your willingness to tackle this project I believe you will truley be better off maybe starting with a running patient.

Yep, same boat. minus a bunch of stuff he took off of it. I brought my trailer and he gave me the boat.

Brian - looking for another project? I have my eyes on something else already might not even move forward with this one.
