240 Offshore Grady

[FreeBeeTony]

Just looked at a '84 24' Grady White Offshore with a 2002 5.7L mercruiser. Didin't have the outdrive on it so I couldn't tell the condition of it. No trailer. Needs a good compounding and waxing. Has nice canvas and radar arch. Both corners at the stern were cracked.......I have trouble posting pics. Guy is asking $12K. It's alot more boat than my '78 20' Grady........<br /><br />When did the new hull design start?<br /><br />Any hints on posting the pics?

You need to post the images in one of the free sites that provide space. I am using photobucket and have found it quite easy. After you post your images there you copy the address and post it here.<br /><br />It almost goes without saying that you should get the Grady surveyed if you have interest.

Here goes.......... <br /><br />It's FWC'd, and from what I can tell it's a full system.......it's alot more cramped than my IL6, that's for sure.<br /><br />How much mure fuel could i expect to use? The IL6 is pretty good on gas..... <br /><br />

Re: 240 Offshore Grady

From the picture of the crack I would suspect that it is due to a rather hard whack on a piling rather than a structural hull crack - much less to worry about.

There are a couple of people on the grady white forum who own Grady Offshore's. They might be able to help you with specific questions.<br /><br />www.greatgrady.com
