I sprayed the mooring cover on the 24' Bennington. I used a 1/2 gallon "plant" sprayer from Lowes based on another post. I feel that using that while keeping the pressure up (pumped up) seemed to reduce the overspray compared the trigger sprayer. Using the pump sprayer, I used a little more...
I plan on draping it over deck railing and spraying it that way. I also might try to lay it out in the yard flat and spray it. The bemini top was tough to move around while doing it. The mooring cover is got to be way worse.
When you do the Mooring cover, do you 303 fabric protect the "tent" area or the entire fabric? I have a covered dock at Norris and the boat is generally not exposed to the elements. Unless it rains sideways, the mooring cover doesn't get wet. The main reason I am going to waterproof it is...
PTM UCX-17 Pro. I would not pull tubers without it, even with a spotter, ever again. It is not just for safety, but I can tell when to hit or come off the gas when the situation call for it. Specifically, I can hit the gas just after the kids pass over the wake when I am in a turn so that get...
I have ours in the lake. I love being able to get in the water 10 minutes after I arrive at the house.
I also love being able to leave on relatively short (1 hour) notice. We put the cover on, lift the boat and roll out.
On my 2017 Bennington (sawgrass flooring), the cooler of Gatorade leaked and soaked into the flooring. I rinsed and cleaning it with 303 and left for the weekend. The floor now have a black mold (presumably) in the weave of the floor. I tried soaking and more 303 but it is just stuck into the...
The boats are definately not apples to apples.
Base SX series v SXP series
Length: 24 v 23. I lose a little length, but I imagine it would help sling the kids around in turns.
Motor: 150 v 250
Helm: Standard V Raised. I have always wanted a raised helm to see over the kids sitting in the...
I just got a quote from the dealer. It would be in the $20K range for an upgrade to the boat. I like it, but I don't think I like it that much.
I have been a boat owner for 3 year and bought mine just after the boat show season. When the best time of the year to get "deals" on used boats...
I saw the removable pylon at the dealership. It is a hefty piece and would hold up to towing.
The location bugged me on a non-extended deck. It would get in the way of boarding. Extended deck, I think you would be fine but you might want to mock up to test.
I saw a TurboSwing at a boat show...
The kids like to have the SM in reverse with the wall in front. That allowed them to wrestle (full contact tubing) and throw people off the back. It does change the weight distribution of the tube and gets more weight in the front which make it less likely to plane on the water.
What way do...
I have a 2017 24 SSRCX with a Mercury 150 4 stroke (110hours). The dealer has a used (30hours) 2018 23 SSRCFBXP with a Verado 250 that I am considering.
The main reason for the upgrade would be the HP. I have 4 boys (17, 15, 14, 10) and we do alot of tubing with a SuperMable (3 person). The...
