Grady-White Freedom 235 Boats For Sale

The Grady-White Freedom 235 is a dual console built for families who fish, with a centerline length of 23 feet 7 inches and an overall length closer to 25 feet 7 inches once the extended swim platform is counted. It carries an 8-foot-6-inch beam, a 20-inch draft, a 20-degree transom deadrise, a dry weight of about 4,050 pounds, and a rated capacity of 10 passengers. The hull uses Grady-White's SeaV2 design, with downward-angled strakes that throw spray back to the surface for the dry, soft ride the brand is known for. It is one of Grady-White's top-selling models, and used Grady-White Freedom 235 boats turn up across the 2017 through 2025 model years, so shoppers looking for a Grady-White Freedom 235 for sale or for sale by owner have a range of years to compare.

Power on the Freedom 235 is rated to a maximum 300 horsepower, and the boat is offered with a Yamaha F300 four-stroke or the newer Yamaha 350. With the F300 turning a 15.5 x 17-inch stainless prop, top speed is 45 mph at 5,900 RPM, burning 26 gph for a range near 176 miles, while best cruise at 4,000 RPM runs 30 mph on 12.35 gph for a range of about 251 statute miles with a 10% reserve. That works out to roughly 3 mpg at 26 mph and 2 mpg at 40 mph from the 115-gallon fuel tank. Stepped up to the Yamaha 350, the boat reaches about 48 mph with best cruise around 30 mph. Time to plane is 4.2 seconds, with 20 mph in 6.1 seconds and 30 mph in 9.4 seconds, and the boat tracks through tight turns without cavitation.

The helm is built around a pedestal-mounted Helm Elite captain's chair with a flip-up bolster, armrests, and diamond-stitched, multi-density foam. The dash accepts dealer-installed electronics; boats have been fitted with a 12-inch Garmin display (such as a 1243xsv), a Garmin VHF with command mic, and the standard Yamaha Command Link Plus or vessel-view gauges. Hydraulic trim tabs are standard, with controls beside the adjustable wheel. A Fusion stereo with dual remotes lets a passenger control music from the companion side, and USB and 12-volt charging points serve the helm and companion seats.

Topside protection is handled by a full-width hardtop with rod holders, grab points, and under-top lighting and stowage for cushions and life vests. A power sunshade extends aft over the swim platform, and a manual pop-in shade covers the bow, giving shade nearly from stem to stern at the sandbar. A weather door and standard Eisenglass front and side curtains close off the cockpit for cold-weather running. The deck layout includes a foldaway transom seat, an optional electromechanical companion chaise that extends back toward the transom, a 62-quart lighted raw-water live well, a 160-quart insulated fish box, four gunnel rod holders, a retractable ski pylon, and an optional wet bar with a sink and Yeti cooler. The walkthrough transom door opens to an extended swim platform with two in-platform storage bins and a four-step ladder.

Forward, the bow rider seating runs side by side with a 98-quart insulated locker under the starboard seat, dry storage to port, and the anchor locker beneath the forward seat; a center insert converts the area to a sun pad or casting platform, or an optional table drops in for lunch. Stainless grab rails run the full length of the bow, and a windlass anchor with optional roller handles ground tackle at the push of a button. The head compartment to port has a teak-and-holly sole, a wood-framed mirror with medicine cabinet, dome and rope lighting, and an optional electric flush with holding tank, fed along with the cockpit shower and optional sink by a standard 20-gallon freshwater tank. Buyers weighing a Grady-White Freedom 235 should confirm which engine and options a given boat carries, since the wet bar, power head, upgraded electronics, and engine choice drive much of the price difference on the used market.
