An update - I checked with my dealer and verified yesterday that the rocker part of the switch can be removed by placing the blade of a flat screwdriver under the rocker and gently twisting. There is a single "pin" that holds it into the switch. There is a plastic bar underneath that seems to...
I can report this - I got my new R version 25' with the Yamaha 300 on the back. It has a 16 degree pitch propeller. First time with an outboard and amazingly quiet. It's pushing my toon to about 43mph max. - that is with three total people on board and no real weight to speak of - no coolers...
Can you guys explain to me what the KMC20 is? I ordered the upgrade to the KMC10 and I think that was kind of a waste. That unit is behind my console door and I have to lay on the ground to even use it. I'm struggling to understand what my upgrade got me. During my research I found out that...
Thanks Jack. The concern I've raised is if you look at these switches the only part that is back lit is the oval with the milky white background. If you look at at the dock light and the bright switches you will notice the icon is exactly the same. The lettering shown does not back light and...
I just got a new Bennington so I'm not sure if it's the same but on my model there is a fuse panel in the rear seating where the main battery is located. This is actually a pretty nice panel and pretty intuitive.
Thanks Chucktuna! Those are awesome - love the packaging with a button to try them. I actually ordered a RGB system of strip lights yesterday for interior illumination myself. I have monitored this site for expert information on how to fish the wiring under the hull - especially with all the...
Thanks Spoiledrotten - someone else pointed that out to me about the push on and off. I didn't learn that until yesterday.
Yeah it does sound that way only because I"m so focused on it. I have been fortunate enough to have other new boats in the past and it's always exciting. I was...
Lakeliving - what would happen if you had 5 turn signal levers all in a row in the same location? I'm sure eventually you'd remember it's the third one down, now if your spouse takes the car out....might be kind of dangerous or maybe a ticket for no turn signal usage because they were actually...
Thanks guys for the feedback. I agree that we don't want a lot of light on the dash BUT even my car has labels on the switches I do need. To me it's important to know what lights are on what switch as there is a hefty fine and safety issue if I don't have my NAV lights on in the dark. I've...
Sorry I didn't see your post until I left the boat for the day. My dash has a row of switches at the bottom and the most defining part of it is the circular Kicker remote unit on the left hand part of the dash and the square indent on the right for the fish finder mounting. Not sure if that...
Swiftm,
Well...I'm sitting on my boat and try this.....my wife's response..."seems kind of intuitive doesn't it...." Crap. You are exactly correct!!! That is exactly how it works!!! Thank you!!!!!! One problem down.
It appears there is some kind of backlighting on the Yamaha...
I have the R2550 series. My switches are labeled that way as well but when dark, that letter is not backlit so you can't read them. The only thing that is backlit is a little icon that looks like a light, etc. but there are several of those which are all the same so in the dark you can't...
Wow I'm excited. I got my new Bennington on Thursday. Quite a difference from my runabout from performance through operation - both good and not so good. So I took a bunch of people out for a long day and night of boating. The night part is what I'm writing about - in the dark you can't...
