    Paddle Wheel Speed Gauge 2010 2550 RCW

    The speedometer on our 2008 has never worked.(It does say the boat is going 50MPH for the last 12 years we have had the boat) Once a year I will run the boat at 3000 rpm. Open the gps speedometer app on the phone and remind myself that is about 22 mph and then never worry about it till next year.

    Best Anchor

    I release the arm because it will not fit under the seat squared. I sprayed the arm spring with dry lube because I did not want to grease the spring and arm. It can be a little stiff but it is all about getting the right angle on the arm to release it. The hardest part of using the anchor is...

    Re-upholstery.

    My advice would be go to a recommended upholstery shop and get their advice on a repair. No fabric is going to match 6 year old seats. Do something fun and change the look of the damaged area. In 2016 we could not get matching fabric for a 2015 model Bennington. I gave up and the shop...

    Best way to clean carpet

    What has worked for me is to wait for a rainy weekend and leave the cover off. The marine carpet absorbs a lot of water. A hose or carpet cleaner does not get the carpet wet enough to clean it well. The next morning after the good rain, I pour a little shampoo and then scrub the carpet with...

    WOT going straight to 7k

    You have a very heavy boat with a heavy load and an 115HP engine. That engine is undersized for your setup. The high rpm could be from the prop cavitating. Even with a great prop that engine will never give you the performance that you are looking to achieve. Understand what you have and...

    Pontoon cover or seat covers?

    You will hear the pump running while steering. It does not run continually but I can hear mine while turning the steering wheel.

    Dog ramp

    We installed the Lillipad ladder to help all our older friends and us. It is amazing. I have read that it works well for dogs. No actual experience but that is what I have read.

    Capsized pontoon boat!

    That is an I/O and they have the engine hatch partially raised. The lounger is higher that the driver seat. They must have flooded the engine bay. Broken hoses for raw water or no drain plug. I know what that is like. We have the boat winter serviced and the mechanic normally puts the plug...

    07 Bennington Tornado Issues :(

    Thank goodness you and family are ok. We have a lake house on Lake Cumberland. Damage close but things were ok for us but lots of destruction close to us. It was great to see the support that was helping people that were affected.

    Swim Ladders

    We pulled the trigger this winter and bought the Lillypad replacement ladder. Installed it in less than a hour by myself on a I/O swim platform. It was too cold it try it out. It will be a huge improvement from the old drop down vertical ladder. I mounted on the radius of the platform. Had...

    2011 2575 RCW 225 hp total length with trailer

    I have a 2008 2575 RCW I/O . When I bought the boat used, it had a piece of crap trailer that was dangerous. I only pulled the boat about 12 miles a year and the trailer broke down every year. I bought a Boatmate trailer 5 years ago and it is a world of difference. It is expensive but a...
