    Getting Pontoon in garage?

    I have a 20 SLI that I will be putting in the garage this winter. I also have a low garage roof and door. My solution was to buy 4 Auto Dollies, and slide it into place without the trailer. If all goes right, I will have 9" to spare with the motor down. Since this is the first season with...

    Boating Rivers after Floods

    It's been a while since I posted anything. We put our new 20 Sli in the water for it's maiden voyage in mid may. The Huron River Chain of lakes (SE Michigan) had record flooding this year as so many rivers have. That hampered our ability to get to the lakes until early June. Now as the...

    Sure is quiet around here

    The weather has probably got in the way for most. I'm finally taking delivery of my 20 SLI next Friday. Just in time for the spring floods on our river. It hits flood stage tomorrow and crests on Monday morning. With a little luck we'll be able to get it under the road and rail bridges by...

    Pontoon Storage

    I'm not sure if your garage can handle it where you could park a car outside and keep the boat in the garage. During the past 2 months I have reconfigured my garage to fit my 20 SLI inside on car dollies. With the motor down you would need 23' of depth. But if you have a trailer, then you...

    How is your dealers' service dept?

    I bought my boat from Donny too. He was real helpful as was everyone I have dealt with there.

    How is your dealers' service dept?

    Real sorry to hear that you have had your new boat experience ruined by a dishonest dealer. I had a similar experience taking delivery on a new Lexus. Once I knew what I was dealing with I fired the dealer, dealt directly with the manufacturer to get satisfaction and found a great dealer about...

    How is your dealers' service dept?

    I bought my last 2 boats from Wilson Marine and they are excellent! Everyone there bends over backwards to make sure the customer is satisfied. They have been around for years and built a great reputation. I will be taking delivery on my 20' SLI in about 2 more weeks. I have no doubt that it...

    Our new Bennington 20 Sli

    We live in southeast Michigan on the Huron River Chain of Lakes. We'e just waiting on better weather now. So far, the river levels are pretty normal but a few spring storms could change all of that. We're looking to take delivery on the 2nd week of May. Then, hopefully all the spring...

    Finally!

    Beautiful ride! Love the dockage too. Temps in the 80's! What's not to like! We're looking at another month up here. Enjoy yourself.

    Second battery

    I'm with you about keeping the weight down and it's one less battery during the winter to keep charged in storage. Since I have electrical power to my dock I'm considering an on board charger too.

    Camper enclosure

    Thanks. At least I can see that it's pretty cumbersome. I think I'll pass.

    Our new Bennington 20 Sli

    Nice Boat! We ordered the same color 20 SLI, but are still waiting on delivery and warm weather. We also live on a river/chain of lakes. We will follow your advice on not launching until the flooding subsides. Guess it will be driveway parties for another month!
