    Bottom panel

    my neighbor had that happen on his premier 29 footer.It was an 8 ft section that peeled 5 ft.It turned out they didn't lap it correctly. Meaning the first piece from the bow was under the second piece rather than over the second piece,so water got under it and eventually pulled the rivets out...

    trim gauge issue

    Yeah, I worked on mine this weekend,and did get it to move with the help of pb blaster,but not enough for it to start working. It did stop the windshield wiping motion, and the indicator stays in the down position,which is fine for me.It's on my lift,so not too easy to work on......maybe next...

    trim gauge issue

    The 1st thing I did was search the web. I've fixed a lot of things by google and youtube. I got a lot of info on fixing and replacing the unit on the engine,but I was hoping to find someone here with a Bennington that had the sweeping gauge issue.This forum is always so helpfull. I would take it...

    trim gauge issue

    not so easy peazy,it's a multi-function cluster gauge with a multi wire connector,and I've had no luck getting a wiring diagram from bennington,although I would rather not cut to disable. My wifey says do what she did years ago to a car with the check engine light, PUT A PIECE OF TAPE OVER IT...

Last year it didn't really work but the needle at least stayed in one position.This time it looks like a windshield wiper,back and forth the entire time like it does when you 1st turn the...

    Mold on your interior vinyl

    So,you used the remover,then 303 protectant,then the mildew guard.I thought the 303 itself would protect against mildew.    Interesting,the more protection the better,and Marine 31 people said this is a good application?

    Mold on your interior vinyl

    Just received marine 31 yesterday,and tried it on my shrink wrapped 2009 2575rli.it had some heavy spots that i couldn't get out with other products.Bought the boat used in Fla. back in 2015,The price was right so I figured I'd live with the spots.I almost gave up till I read this post,and...

    Wet carpet and floor

    I took a wave this fall and had a lot of water come in.What I did was use a wet dry shop vac to suck up the water.I then put fans in the boat and that eventually dried the carpet out with help of the sun,which I understand you don't have that option being  shrinkwrapped.My boat is shrinkwrapped...

    Sorry about the late reply back.I decided to stay with the 4 blade on my boat. From my research I really couldn't come up with a reason for me to change.I thought it created more of a wash behind the boat,but it didn't seem any more than my friends tri toon with a yamaha 250 3 blade.I do think...

    Tachometer function

    I have a 2009, 2575rl with a tachometer that has a digital display window that shows fuel percent and trim.It has 2 function buttons,an M and T to change the readout,but I don't know if they are working correctly,or I'm not doing something right.When scrolling thru the mode button I see a lot of...

    Any way to quickly reset depth signal from transducer

    I was having the same problem on my 2575 rl tri toon. I looked at my transducer and saw that it was approx. 2" above the bottom of my port pontoon.Now, this was ok at slow speeds,but at higher speeds it's out of the water, in the wash,which will not work properly. Fortunately the bracket is...

    4 blade prop versus 3 blade

    thanks for all the input! My neighbor has a premier with a 3 blade he said I could try ,so with that being said I'll see what difference it makes and go from there,but as of this moment I'm leaning toward keeping the 4 blade. Don't really plan on doing much tubing on the pontoon anyway,but if we...
