My Bennington 2275RL with the pretty common Creme color panels with the tin on the outside of the fencing ...I am wanting to Change the color of the tin and also wondering if the Tin could be put on the inside of the railing instead of the outside to help from Denting and showing buoy leaves...

FINALLY got around to finishing up my under skinning and I have to say the back portion was the hardest part of the whole boat ..but very pleased at how it turned out ....now lets see some SUN!!

I bought my sheets from a Steel mill here locally ...... the bad part is now its up to $135 a sheet 4x8 and last year it was $70 and it takes 3 sheets

I have done the floor by myself and just wanted to make sure everyone was going all the way back ..... just going to make a templet out of cardboard and transfer it to the aluminum sheet

I did skip the first few sections...I started on the brace that has my tow hook and went back from there ..... I was thinking i needed to go all the way back just dreaded making a templet and cutting that out back there ...going to be interesting

I am currently under skinning my pontoon and have a question on how far back I should go ? I have it all the way back to the transom and was just wondering if everyone is taking it all the way back to the rear?

Sorry I havent updated lately but work has had me out of the country ....but i had time yesterday to take the boat out on a clear calm mild wind day to get some more data..... what i noticed was you could feel the boat pull up to about 4100 rpm and the gps was right at the 19 mph .... i pushed...

a little bit of an update on my issues... had a friend double check my speed yesterday just for a solid start and his boat was at 21 mph and gps said 21 as well running at 5500 rpm...he said my boat from behind was really digging hard in the water ...so ive got some work on my hands getting the...

My prop is 13.5x15

Bamaman you are correct the motor will not go down any further without using a jack plate …… my prop is 13.5x15

you are correct the motor is very close to the transom ....not sure if it will even drop another bolt hole or not ..... I will have to check the prop this weekend when i go back down to the slip on the prop specs ......
