This dual console bowrider is a great way to get out on Phang-Nga-Bay and explore all the islands between Phuket and Langkawi. Whether it's a day out on the water with the family, or a day fishing with the guys, this boat will deliver. Considered the Rolls Royce of fishing boats, Grady-White boats meet U.S.C.G "Basic Flotation" Certification and have won the marine industries CSI Award from the
National Marine Manufactures Association (NMMA) for 10 consecutive years.
This Grady White 225T was purchased by its present 2nd owner in June 2011 from Raffles Marina in Singapore.
Raffles Marina store their powerboats on 3 story racks indoors when not being used, so the original owner of the would call the marina, have the boat lifted off the racks and put in the water when he wanted to use it and afterwards, the marina would lift the boat, wash it down and put it back on the racks. Consequently, after 4 years of ownership the boat only had 200 hours on the original Yamaha F250 engine when purchased by the current owner. She was transported by a low loader flatbed truck from S’pore, to Langkawi in late 2011 where she stayed until Langkawi registration was completed. The boat was then run the last 125NM up to Phuket. On arrival in January 2012, the boat underwent an extensive refit throughout 2012 including:
