Grady-White Boats is always at the table, consistently and confidently working to protect our waters and fisheries. This spring, two of our team members met in Washington, DC, for the American Sportfishing Association’s annual spring government affairs meeting.

Grady-White Boats is proud to continue supporting the successful Dolphinfish Research Program coordinated through the Beyond Our Shores Foundation. Working with anglers around the world, the organization tags dolphinfish and tracks their movements in an effort to ensure their conservation and sustainability for the future.

Preserving our fisheries, waterways, and coastal resources is important to Grady-White Boats as well as our boat owners. We support many programs that tag and track fish of all types and sizes throughout the world. One such program has been tagging white sharks off the coast of Monterey, CA, giving insight into their survival and interactions with other animals. Dr. Barbara Block and her crew even use a Gulfstream Grady-White we helped provide as one of their research vessels! Watch this video to find out more.
