Cape Fear Grady Club

Welcome to the Cape Fear Grady Club page!  Our club is setup for local Grady-White owners to enjoy their boats, learn more about local waters, venture to places they may not feel comfortable going alone, and enjoy life on the water with other Grady-White owners.  Everyone, from those new to boating, to the most experienced captain, is welcome to join!

What are our club members saying?

“This was an amazing trip!  It was so well planned and it was obvious that Jordan put much thought into each detail.  The group of people who traveled were delightful, we made new friends and caught up with old acquaintances.   The appetizers at Lulu’s were delicious and a nice surprise!  The Docktail Party was such a nice way to blend two cities of folks who like to boat, on a GRADY!…PERFECT!  FUN!” – Holly Sellers, Grady-White Express 330, Charleston Trip

“This trip was actually more fun than we thought it was going to be…and we had pretty high expectations going in!  Jordan did a fantastic job with the communication and information before the trip and handled logistics during the trip like the pro that he is.  We can’t wait for the Bald Head event.  The location of CHRM just can’t be beat.  Loved the quick ride over to town in the water taxi.  Marina staff were very helpful at both locations, but the staff at Grande Dunes really stood out from a service perspective.” -Dr. Eric Mansell, Grady-White Fisherman 216, Charleston Trip
