I got mine in over the weekend…jury is still out but the straps they ship with it are ridiculous and I don’t even bother using them. I just hook the attached loop at each corner cleat then run a small bungee in the center on each side…easy peasy. I call it my good weather cover….if I know it’s...

Sorry just seeing your question…I boat in New Hampshire. Marine patrol is very strict on excessive and unnecessary lighting. Dan

You may wish to check with your local marine patrol enforcement with legalities of this before spending any money. Where I am from they do not allow any lighting whatsoever that can be seen above the helm except nav lights when underway. The speaker lights in my tower speakers even need to be...

I just ordered one a couple weeks ago. Went with an extra large for my 28’ Bennington. Playpen is roughly 21’ end for end. I too plan on using the middle lifting cleat to strap down each side. I’ll report back once I get it… Dan

I believe this is a dealer order item. I have them on mine and love them! Way better than the plastic clips or EZ Fenders. Very small profile that won’t interfere with your mooring cover. Dan

I use standard 3/8” diameter fender line. Benni Clips are great! Dan

Do you think you could use a tarp clip with a bungee or similar to pull down the sides a little or do you think the material is not strong enough for a tarp clip? Thanks! Dan

The mice up here in my area make nests out of dryer sheets! Not kidding! Luckily my boats are stored inside and up high on racks but my trailers stay in my yard. I have to ensure every single hole or crevice is filled with stainless steel wool then covered with anti rodent spray foam. They love...

Fairly easy to make if your somewhat handy… I made one for each of my pylon holes. Dan

Use large nylon washers between PT wood and your trailer. The PT will eventually corrode your trailer prematurely… Dan

I have been using for number of years now, Nikon Aculon 10 x 50 A211. They are not crazy expensive at a little over $100.00, have super clear glass and are very rugged. Very pleased thus far with them! Dan

Made these out of aluminum tube. Fits right in the ski pylon holes… Dan

The biggest problem I see at times is some people over tighten those rear or front ratchet straps and cause unnecessary weight to the trailer bunks. All that downward pressure being applied to those straps on the pontoons adds a lot of stress to the bunks. While I do use ratchet straps on both...

This exact same issue is happening with my new Q27x2. It appears to be an issue at both corners of the arch. When they bend the rubber to go around those corners, the slot in the rubber opens up and will not hold the edge of the cover properly. It very easily pulls out of the rubber slot. It...

I would be looking for 20% off…. Dan
