I love to kayak as something else to do up at our cabin. In Northwest Wisconsin we have lakes, lakes, and more lakes. I like to get up early and kayak different lakes every weekend. The biggest bad habit that I see is people are so lazy and do not put the playpen cover on. It does not matter the...

Good for you and welcome. We have a 2011 20SLi and have has zero problems. Take the 303 advice it's money well spent. I 303 our Benny about once a month in season. ENJOY!!!

Try Ronsonol lighter fluid like you would use for a cigarette lighter. I have been using that stuff for 35 years and I never damages anything. It is fantastice for removing anything with an adhesive. Great stuff.

If someone ask me what I paid I just tell them. I does not bother me. But first things first. I am always complemented on how much they like my Bennington. And take time to point out to me what they like about it. No one has ever been a Must Be Nice Jerk to me or my wife. If I can help...

I have a 2011 20 SLi in regatta blue with the monotone interior. I get so many complements on our Benny. Everyone that see's it in the dock or on the water makes a passing positive comment. "Nice Boat, Had to out class mine with a Bennington, That's one good looking boat, My next one's a...

We have a 2011 20 SLi in Regatta Blue and a 50hp High Thrust Yamaha that is easy on the wallet when it is time to fill up with gas. We went 28 hours on 24 gallons of gas during our break in period. It is a good feeling now to have a boat that the gas gauge moves so slow you think it is broken...

Apply a product called 303. Just spray it on Also IOSSO makes a Seam Sealer that you apply to both sides of the seam with applicator bottle. Cost about $8.00 to $9.00

I just got my letters in the mail yesterday. It took about a 5 days and all is good. Pretty much what I was expecting. I get my Benny out of storage on memorial weekend and then the fun starts. I just could not put anything less on my Benny.

I just ordered my Chrome Bennington font Registration Numbers. I talked with Andy at Domed Numbers today on the phone. Very helpfull and he was willing to e-mail me a Sample of Bennington Numbers he just made for someone else just so I could see what I was getting into. There is also a Youtube...

E mail me at jlfinn@charter.net I will send you pix. I have no bounce or banging going on. The anchor fits into it's own housing along with the rope. It becomes part of the boat, you do not even now it is their until you need it. I would not have it any other way. I am not sure what a box...

I just had my dealer install a Minkota automatic anchor on my bow platform on my 20SLi. All I do is push a button. It is out of the way dose not rattle or bang and works every time I want it to. No mud, sand, seaweed, or water on my carpet. Plus I am not busting my hump to pull it up I just...

I did my first oil change at 23 hours on my Yamaha 50. I checked my oil level every other weekend. The oil was so clean I needed reading glasses just to see the oil level. I was at my dealership to watch him change the oil. The old coming out looked as cleas as the new oil he poured in. I am...

I would never beach any boat I own. I pride myself that when I sell a boat it looks as new as possable. Nothing good that can come from beaching a boat. In my opinion,

Last season I purchase a Yamaha T 50. I had the same question on my mind. Every salesman that I talked to told me to use premium because of the water issues with ethanol. I then talked to a outboard marine mechanic at the boat show that had nothing to gain or loose. He was not connected to the...

I had the same problem this past summer. My old boat that I still have has a 30 year old canvas cover that to this day never has leaked. Then I get a new Benny and the cover leaks. I could see day light through the seams. So I knew about a product called 303. I sprayed it on and it did help...
