First of all, a huge THANK YOU to HAPEHOUR!! :)   :) :)  If it wasn't for your post, I'd probably be throwing gas cans all over the lake! I can't believe this thread has been going on for 2 years and not a post or notice of some kind by Bennington. I realize that the EPA has a habit of...

We received our 2014 20SLMX in September (2013) so were able to use it for a month before stowing it in the barn for the winter. Here's a pic on the first day on the lake...Jonathan Creek in western Kentucky

Thank you all for the welcome and the compliments. :) The rough water package was recommended by the dealer and we trust them very much. Runs like a dream and he offered to change props (no charge) after initial break in period to get the best performance. We're thinking that the 11" will do...

Hi Folks, Our brand new 2014 20SLMX was delivered this morning. The dealer took us for a test drive and after dropping him off, the wife and I went for a very pleasant and comfortable 2 hr cruise around the lake....WOW...what a boat! We knew we were getting the best and we are totally...

All of the above is correct. Our 2014 20SLMX will be delivered next Wednesday. The "playpen" is moved back approximately 6", giving more room forward and less in rear. Price is the same...can't wait :D

Just got pinned! 20SLMX should be here shortly (probably next week) Does the pin move when we get underway?  :rolleyes:  

Ditto...waiting for new Benny some time this week...or next? :rolleyes: 2014...  20SLMX with 70hp Yamaha...I think BoatUS will be about $140 annual

Fish tape at Harbor Freight #38156...$8.99

Ditto...thanks for sharing, Olduffer! We just ordered a 20slmx. Hope to have it by the end of September...before it gets too cold down here in Kentucky. Nice to hear that it's being built by some very caring craftsmen working for a company that REALLY cares. We had a feeling that we were...

Hi Jeff, I'm also new on the forum. You're correct!...a wealth of info. We priced used Benningtons and decided to go for new. The cost was not that much more and we have the peace-of-mind of a full 7 year warranty. We just ordered a new 2014 20 SLMX: 25" Pontoons,70hp Yamaha 4-stroke, rough...

Thanks for the info. I've been checking a little more and have found out that the "SL and SLX mix up" came about in 2012 when Bennington was playing with the idea of offering the SL only and it would have the "X" rails (outside) as standard equipment because of the popularity...and give a...

Hello All ! New to the forum and just want to say that y'all are a wealth of information. Thanks! We're in the process of "trying" to decide on the right Bennigton for our retirement years. Very limited budget so we're thinking the 20SL(M?) with a 70hp Yamaha, 25" tubes, helm recliner (G)...
