    Steering Assembly Replacement

    I believe Sea Star owns teleflex. the One you have now looks like a feedback system, all that means is you have to constantly correct the steering in waves etc. the system is fairly easy to change. Measure the distance from the helm to the motor and allow a little extra. Disconnect the cable...

    Gas Prices

    I don’t see the prices dropping at Deep creek this year. a lot of things are changing but the boat traffic will still be heavy no matter what the fuel price.

    No PADS here. Ever. (Finally!)

    Now that is the way to think, I have owned Benningtons since 2002. my first lasted me 15 years until i upgraded to a tri toon. the only reason i did was because the lake I boat on is rough and as I got older I feel better on a tri toon. Have fun, make memories and enjoy your boat. That is what...

    Replacement for Garmin Striker 4

    on my last bennington, i removed the broken fish finder, in those days they used hummongbird, but i had a hole in the dash, so I went to Home Depot and found some really nice round moulding, cut it to size, glued another square moulding with mitered edge and it looked like it came with the boat...

    Are these welds really acceptable?

    no excuse for sloppy work ever, a company that constantly brags about their quality should have better quality control. I'v had a Bennington since 2002 and can tell you the first Bennington was much better quality wise than my new one.

    Vehicle to tow

    I have a F150 with a 365 HP ecoboost. I had a dodge hemi and a dodge v-10, this ford tows way better than a dodge and gets better gas mileage.
