    RCW/GCW Aft-facing Stern Lounges

    I have a 2011 RCW so there is a chance something changed in 2012 but don't think so. The G series doesn't automatically come with the padding around the interior fence rail but its an upgrade, the R series has it included. If you go with the G series I would recommend getting the padding, looks...

    Outboard Vs Inboard

    I didn't have time to read every comment here but I don't think anyone mentioned the difference in sound. I bought an outboard because they are so much quieter!!! I/O's are nice from an esthetics stand point but you can hardly have a conversation when your cruising. We can have a normal...

    Best motor for a 2275GCW? Placing order today!

    Well, it isn't one of your choices but Suzuki makes the best engine out there and has the best setup for a pontoon with the 2.5:1 gear ratio. The next best is yamaha. Of course this is only my opinion and not a popular one at that but I had to throw my two cents in. I have a Suzuki 175 and I...

    3-step boarding ladder on Benningtons

    Understand, the ladder is a very important component and we were concerned about this as well but TB is correct the ladder functions quite well. Now that said, if I was given the option of a longer ladder I would have chosen it but no one has had any troubles. I am a big guy as well (300 oh no)...

    Rear Facing Seat's

    Not sure you need another opinion but the rear loungers are the primary reason we bought this boat. There was a huge debate amongst my wife and I about the open stern vs the LTD (closed in) my wife insisted on the LTD and I have to say I think she was right. I love the look of the open rear but...

    Touch Up Paint

    I am in the same boat....no pun intended. My local marina allowed the gas cap to rest against the paint while filling....I knew it would happen but it still pisses me off. Attention TB, you may mention to the engineers about possibly just making the area around the fuel fill stainless or at...

    Steering Problem

    This was a source of confusion for me when I was shopping because initially I thought Sea Star was hydraulic steering that would yield finger tip steering but then I learned you must add the power assist for finger tip steering. Standard seastar is hydraulic however you act in place of the...

    32 ESP vs 3 tube ESP package

    You can in floor storage and center fuel so yes both. I agree with Wild and Free, the added benefits of the center toon out weigh the 2-3 mph speed loss. I now own the original 3 25" tritoon and the in-floor storage is amazing. I knew the elliptical center tube would be bigger than the...

    A poll to support Rob's question - What outboard?

    It will unfortunately be a few weeks before I am able to get back to the lake but maybe the dealer will know what they put on it. I will check. I appreciate your willingness to help. Thank you
