dog plank: lol

i made the same mistake! I thought the exclamation was because everyone was so excited. in my disappointment the code didn't work, i looked more carefully, lol the extra discount convinced me to get the cover though...

Another successful order! code worked for me just now as well, thanks everyone!

Anyone know if there's a Bennington forum code still? And any trouble with the mooring cover after installing the rail mount version? thanks!

as an owner that had the same concerns but with different motors... I have a 250 SHO Vmax. you barely hear it idle... at no wake speed (1000-1200 rpm), it's barely louder. it doesn't interfere with music or conversation... at 2-3k, the wind starts to be more issue than motor noise, and...

I’m assuming you mean above the waterline? Typically folks asking in our forums are referring to below the waterline, as that’s the intended use for something like sharkhide. (And bottom paint for our salty dogs…. lol)

Do you have experience of how long it lasts? Everyone I've talked to says that ceramic is great, but doesn't last long in water contact on a boat hull. Especially in saltwater. Sounds like you may have practical experience you could share based on your forum handle... ;) To be specific...

One other comment... It's unlikely that a prop change will get you 5 mph top end speed... Especially with the addition of 400lbs of weight... I'm just trying to help you set expectations. 5 mph top end is a LOT for a boat. It would be like saying you would like tire recommendations for your...

toons are aluminum, and water is a pretty good scouring agent.... not to mention, i'd probably not want that below the water line, can't be good for the water, and probably won't last a day anyway... above the waterline, i think its good stuff...

not having a trailer.. or the patience to remove and reinstall the underskin has been a bit of a buzzkill for me.... so many projects that i've just decided weren't worth it, lol...

I'll have to get out this weekend and get eyes on myself... the last 4-5 years on Lake Erie levels have been at near record highs, and almost washing out facilities at the state park beaches...

Sadly, I think a lot more folks would take a chance if it was 2x-3x a good stainless prop... boats are easy to sink money... but at the current price, meh... I mean, I pay an extra $300 each service for concierge where they come and get my boat at the dock, take it to the ramp (35 min from...

Let me put it another way... If you have invented a prop that can back up 5% improvement in efficiency with data (let alone what they claim)... You go sell it to Maersk or other massive cargo lines and charge a bajillion dollars cause it is worth it.... last i checked, those ships still...

that's pretty much what my service guys told me when i got the second battery installed. seems like there isn't a good "scientific" answer without draining a few batteries for "research"...
