Sorry - I failed to mention it was covered under warranty. Otherwise it was a $500 part.

Hi all. Was out on the lake chillin for a couple of hours and started up the Yamaha 115. It started, but emitted a high pitched whine while in neutral, which then went away when in forward. Back to neutral the whine started immediately. So I headed back to the dock (slowly) where I could...

You all have brought up some good options that I will check out! Currently I have a boat lift with cover - and am able to lift the Benny for a snug fit into the lift cover. This works well except the the cockpit area seems to get dusty from pollen, bugs, dust etc - hence the request about a...

Thanks for the bounce back! Yea - I’ll start looking into canvas shops. Just wanted to confirm that there isn’t a cover that exists. Thanks again.

Hi folks. I have a 2018 22 ft SSRFB. I have a full boat cover but have been trying to find a small cockpit cover just for the instrument panel and cockpit area. I have not been able to find anything. Just curious if any Bennington boaters have heard of such a thing. Thanks!

Hello. I have two batteries and switch on my Bennington I just took delivery on.  I believe the purpose of having a switch is so you can choose to drain one battery when anchored (radio etc) and have the second battery as back up for starting. Also, when docked for longer periods, can...
