Admiral - Spot On!  As usual on this site, someone posts a concise, factual question/request and within two replies, people are completely off the wall with responses. Fact One - Bennington has factory tech reps who earn their paychecks by testing boats. Fact Two - Without regard to whiners...

Had several prompts from Club Bennie as a result of messages sent my way. Sacandaga Lake wanted to know why I said the express center tube was 13' in length yet came within 10" of the fuel tank? Find a 2012 RCL and drop down below the deck, guys. The fuel tank begins at the same line where the...

Hi Deckhand, My summer neighbor has used Sharkhide with good results. However, on our RCL (and our past pontoon), we used 'Toon Brite. Stuff is incredible and it's less than half of what Sharkhide will cost you. Going into it's 3rd summer on our past toon, it still shed the green growth like...
