I hope to fish the BI tournament at Paynes. Not much left in funds after the re power and structure scan transducers for my Simrad's :cry:

Did not like the look of these new Evinrudes. But, I gotta say they look sweet on your Grady. Good color choice as well. Very nice. Now I need to see an all white version on the back of a Grady. Do they even make these in the Evinrude white? By the way, it's probably been posted above, but please update when you get a chance to run these a bit. Let us know the good, the bad, and the ugly. Congrats on the repower!

 

[ROBERTH]

Awesome color choice! Seems to blend with the Grady really well.

They look real clean mounted on the transom. Let's see it on the water!

Tom,

Very nice!!!

Rigged and ready. moving the boat back to my shop for a bottom cleaning, barrier coat and bottom painting.....
I am amazed at the additional open space in the splash well now that that everything is condensed into one rigging tube per motor.

Tom, did you buy that marlin last year in CT? I think it was on my list of boats to see and then I found one elsewhere.

Looks like the rigging tube is fixed. Is that correct? If so, that not only is cleaner, it saves on stress on the rigging tube as it is not moving as well eliminating the extra material to allow the motor to turn side to side. Very compact and clean mount. Looks awesome. Now get us some performance and reliability data!

Yes, G2's have fixed rigging tubes. Performance.......coming next month. Reliability.......... sure hope so!

I'm very curious...probably a lot of us are. Any updates on this repower, regarding performance and fuel consumption? Thanks!
