    Tow Bar Removal???

    yeah not sure what I am going to do yet. I went a little nuts with a lithium house battery upgrade, so may cool it for the rest of the season.

    Tow Bar Removal???

    it is very close to hitting the lateral supports on the door. I can leave it as is, and that would work, I am a bit interested in the Turbo swing, and it would allieviate and future issues

    Tow Bar Removal???

    So just picked up a 2023 SXSB love everything about it, even the Tow Bar. The Tow bar is less than a 1/4 inch from hitting my garage door when I pull it inside. I have heard the Turbo Swing is an excellent substitute for the Tow Bar. When I looked to see how it was attached, the complete...

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    I do embedded control system design. I may do some digging. Yamaha seems to have a command control display that should hook into the NEMA 2000 helm controller. I was thi king I could locate that display on the right hand side of the consol opposite the kicker stereo.

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    Sorry for the post dump just replaying a terrific afternoon of boating. I did think of a couple things that were not all Rainbows and unicorns. The electric over hydraulic steering is amazing, but it has a bit of a dead spot when switching directions fast, like a docking situation or keeping...

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    I would still love to ride on an sps or esp float. I just cannot believe these modern pontoons. We saw an older Sunchaser tritoon and a Regency, both did not seem like they could get up on plane like the Benny. They were moving pretty good, but water was going everywhere. Not that I could see my...

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    well That is what the Garmin says, I did not check it against anything, and that is also with the current and wind. I only opened it up a couple times as I was breaking it in. The rest of the time we had the Bimin up and just cruised around about 25 to 30 mph. The dealership did the first hour...

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    I appreciate the input on here. I must be getting old. This pontoon/tritoon handles better than anything of this sort I have drove before it! On the river it is excellent!. I can pass anything with little to no drama or slapping. WOT with 4 people aboard is 43mph and it cruises at 5100 ay 38...

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    Thanks, we went into this with 35K budget figured we could stretch to 40 for the right float. We road on and saw some nice floats used and new, but then we were introduced to a tritoon, and Dealers were able to give us some favorable rates with a sizeable down payment, so then we started...

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    I am not capable of getting the deal done on the LSB, the dealer really went the extra mile to try and make it work, but I just cannot stomach the numbers at this moment. The SXSB fits comfortably in our budget, so we are gonna see just how bad this pontoon package is. It has all the options...

    no I did not snag it because I was pretty sure I was buying the express that day.

    S SERIES VS L SERIES vs all others, deck construction

    This L series at the moment only has, "did we really need thats". The only wish we had, is a lower price, but as my daughter said, why pay 80% of the price for a pontoon that doesn't work. As far as the deck and amenities, I am pretty handy if something comes up we need. It is so new it has not...
