2015 Grady White Canyon 283

The 283 is my sixth Grady-White. I wanted a fast boat to reach the Keys but not something too big. The 283 is a perfect combination of a long range boat for the open water and one that my wife and I can take out every day for cruising. I looked at two other makes, but Grady had the best handling, level of quality and solid engineering.
