GRADY-WHITE FISHERMAN 236: August 2019  Auckland, New Zealand

​

I first took the GW 236CC for a sea trial in January 2019 and from that day on I wanted to purchase the boat, Stuart understood prior to that happening I first had to sell my current boat. The sale of my boat took some time and I kept advising Stuart of the delays he was not fussed and worked with me until the sale was finally completed and the purchase of the new GW 236 could be completed in August 2019 (yes a full 8 months).

 During my dealings with Stuart he was very understanding and accommodating and once the deal was done he did everything possible to have the boat in tip top condition for the day I picked the boat up. This is my fourth boat and according to wife my last and by far Stuart’s handover and walk through the boat to ensure I understood everything and was the best service I had ever received. Going forward I would recommend Stuart to all to deal with he is very professional and knows the Grady White boats inside out.

I brought this boat because I like to fish wide, it has the best hull of all the trailer boats I have been on as well as being the largest boat I can buy to fit into my driveway. The Grady Whites come with large fuel tanks therefore no need to carry fuel extra fuel. I have set the boat up with Simrad electronics and with the GW make an awesome combination which I will have wonderful safe boating for many years to come.

Grady-White 330 Express.  March 2019, Auckland, NZ

Stuart at Grady-White New Zealand

 

A short note to say a big thank you to you for the wonderful work done on our new boat “Lil’one”.  I thought today she looked magnificent on the water.  Looks only were surpassed by the way she handled.  A true thoroughbred.  The Yamaha XTO 425hp are a fantastic match for what is a truly magnificent hull.  Again these were wonderfully matched with the Garmin electronic package.  

 

Stuart you are the ultimate enthusiast about Grady White boats, but from todays run, you have every reason to sing their praises.  Thank you for everything and also a big thank you to Rosie.

 

Michael, I have been extremely impressed with your knowledge and professionalism in the total fitout of the electronics etc.  Most of the work goes unseen, and that is how it should be.  However, too often installations are not well thought out.  Thank you for your sterling efforts.

 

Cheers Ian

Go Grady White-You Won't Have Regrets

 

Just purchased my 11th Grady White. Over the past 47 years I have purchased a lot of boats, mostly Grady White's. Three time I have tried to save some money and purchased other brands. Each time I regretted it, and had the boat on the market within six months. The quality, ride and service are second to none. There customer service is the best!

Grady white canyon 376

 

Best quality boat I have ever owned I am 56 years old and have owned in excess of 50 boats . I regularly fish 100 plus miles offshore in the Gulf of Mexico this boat is a beast and the rougher the seas get the more I love this canyon 376. Every time I get the opportunity to take other captains and hard core fisherman out they are amazed and all agree that the 376 canyon is hands down the boat to be in when the wind starts blowing and you are 100 plus miles offshore.

Would Do It All Over Again!

Wilmington, NC - September 20, 2017

I have just completed my first year of ownership of my Freedom 275. I would do it all over again exactly as I did a year ago. I would buy the exact same Freedom 275 model, exact same twin 200 Yamaha power, exact same options, and I would buy it from the exact same dealer, The boat, the performance, the dealer support have exceeded my expectations.

Our New GW Freedom 215

Troy, VA - September 20, 2017

From the GW reputation we expected a lot and they delivered! Materials, fit & finish, seaworthiness are just what we hoped for. Wife loves the boat and I have found it to be a dependable fishing platform. This model is easy to trailer and works well both at the lake and offshore. Dealership has treated us like family. No regrets.

After years of reserach and rentals we took delivery of our first boat in July. Can't explain how excited and satisfied we were with the experience and how great it is to own our own Grady White.

This is our first boat. We have always wanted a Grady White and are so happy to finally be able to call one our own. Great dealer experience and great boat. Stable, safe and fun. Cruising, fishing, tow sports... our Freedom 235 does it all. Could not be happier.

Fisherman 180

Indian Wells, CA - September 13, 2017

I have been gradually downsizing my boats.... Trying to simplify . The Fisherman 180 meets all of my boating needs ! I think Grady White makes high quality boats . I am convinced Grady White has the BEST customer service & I am extremely happy with the dealer,  They are the Best !!

Great Performer

North Bay Village, FL - September 14, 2017

My Grady White 336 Canyon has been a great performer in some challenging sea conditions. She rides like a much bigger boat. Her beam sets her apart from the competition. The next time you see a 336 Canyon moored next to any other 32-35' center console, take the time to compare her dimensions, and overall Dock appeal.

Grady White  A Perfect Match !

Seattle, WA - September 8, 2017

It took me almost a year to find the Grady White that was just right for me. During that time Tom at Jacobsen's Marine was ever patient and glad to see me every time I came in with a bunch of new questions. Finally one day I walked in and there on the floor was the Adventure 208 Hardtop. This boat had everything I wanted for fishing and pleasure cruising. The quality of my Grady White and the people at Jacobsen's Marine made this a great adventure. Loren P

Excellent Design Provides For Great Fishing,

Good Time Enjoying The Water And It All Fits On A Secured Storage Rack At The Marina After Use.

Griffin, GA - September 7, 2017

When we purchased the boat to replace our 330 Sea Ray Express Cruiser with two large inboards, a full cabin an a 13.5 foot beam, we were looking for something to provide a comparable beam for fishing offshore, and amenities to make the ladies of our family comfortable just cruising. Additionally, it needed to be capable of dry storage to minimize the abuse by the elements when not being used. The GW 330 Express Cruiser met and exceeded all the criteria and then some.

​

We love our new Grady-White 330 Express.

A perfect boat for some serious fishing or just cruising up and down the East Coast. The layout and features are perfect for fishing or casual cruising.

2018 GW Fisherman 257

Burlington, NC - August 23, 2017

This is our second Grady White, our first was a Sportsman 180. We ordered our new 257 from Radio Island Marina in June. Our new 257 was delivered July 24, 2017. This boat is fantastic, Grady White has done an outstanding job of engineering the 257. We'd recommend this boat to anyone looking to purchase a 25' offshore fishing boat.

Grady-White Quality And Customer Service Are Second To None.

Holliston, MA - August 19, 2017

As a first time boat owner I couldn't have made a better choice than Grady-White. The boat is outstanding and the support I've had from the people at Grady-White has been outstanding. Any question I've asked them has been responded to promptly and detailed. One issue required talking with a rep and they emailed me with their direct office line and asked me to reach out to them directly. The people at Grady go above and beyond any company I've dealt with and I couldn't be more pleased.

330 express

 

The 330 Express has surpassed all my expectations. The quality and performance of the boat certainly meets and exceeds the data advertised by GW. It is a phenomenal fishing machine and awesome for just cruising. We expect many years of enjoyment on our GW.

Grady Fisherman 236

Morristown, NJ - August 1, 2017

My new 236 Fisherman is the fourth Grady I have purchased from Anchor Marine in Farmingdale, NJ. Fit. finish, ride, cockpit layout, etc., are everything I expected and the reason I come back to Grady every time, even after looking at the competition. Combine this with a continually outstanding dealer experience with great manufacturer support and there is no other choice.

Freedom 275 New Purchase And Factory Visit

Tracys Landing, MD - July 25, 2017

Being a first-time boat owner I was very concerned about making the right decision on the boat I was going to purchase and what dealer to use. I wanted a boat with a good reputation and a manufacturer with an excellent customer service record. I can say I found what I was looking for in Grady White and its local dealer Tri-State Marine, MD. I had an amazing experience with the Grady White factory during my visit along with their excellent customer service. I love my Grady White Freedom 275.
