I want to know if these boats are pretty reliable I know that they are well built. I just sold a 25 blackfin w/ twin volvo tamd41b diesels. Are the 1998 fuel injected yamahas more fuel efficient then the 1995 carbuerated engines? Hey any insight on this combination would be greatly appreciated.

We have a 2001 with twin 250 OX-66 EFIs and are very happy with the boat. You should be too if you buy that boat.

Here's the HEY MON! about 200 miles from her home dock in Ft Lauderdale. We had stopped at Lubber's Quarters in Abaco, Bahamas for a cold beer at Cracker P's.....

Hey Dive Man,

I purchased a 2003 GW 265 Express two weeks ago and ran her from Manasquan Inlet In NJ up to the North Shore of Long Island. If you read the "Buying a Grady" post on the forum page you can see what I wrote. Bottom line is now that I have run a Grady and own her I completely understand why we are willing to pay a premium for these boats.

Good Luck with the purchase.
