1979 Grady-White 17’ Overnighter – Vintage Soul, Modern Muscle
This is a rare find for the boater who appreciates the legendary "sea-kindly" ride of a classic Grady-White but wants the performance of modern horsepower. This 1979 17-foot Cuddy Cabin (the precursor to the famous 190-208 Overnighter series) has been kept in impressive condition and repowered to turn heads at the fuel dock and on the open water.
The Vessel: A True Classic
Grady-White built its reputation on overbuilt hulls and safety, and this 17-footer is no exception. Designed for the choppy waters of the Atlantic, this hull offers a stable, dry ride that punches far above its weight class.
- Cabin: The cozy V-berth cuddy provides excellent dry storage for gear or a comfortable spot for the kids to nap out of the sun.
- Cockpit: A surprisingly spacious layout for a 17-foot boat, perfect for coastal fishing, sandbar hopping, or pulling tubes.
- Condition: The fiberglass retains its structural integrity, showcasing the high-quality hand-laid resin work Grady-White is known for.
The Power: 1999 Johnson 200HP V6
While these boats were originally rated for much less, this vessel has been outfitted with a 1999 Johnson 200HP OceanRunner. This is a "bulletproof" two-stroke engine known for its massive torque and ease of maintenance.
- Performance: With 200 horses on a 17-foot hull, this boat is an absolute rocket. It gets on plane instantly and offers a cruising speed that most modern boats in this size class can't touch.
- Reliability: The 1999 Johnson series is beloved by mechanics for its straightforward design—no complicated computers, just raw power and reliability.

Broker’s Note
"If you’re looking for a generic department-store boat, this isn’t it. This is a boat for someone who loves the classic lines of a Grady and wants a sleeper—a vintage hull that can outrun brand-new fiberglass. It’s the perfect blend of 'Old School' cool and serious 'New School' speed."
