I replaced mine and used a little silicone spray. Make sure you see no bends in the frame. All the square tubing on the Bimini should align evenly on top of each other when folded down. I had to work mine 3 or 4 times either way 2 hands. Now I can pull it up with one hand.

My Bimini frame split on the starboard side completely in 2. I went to the supplier and gave them my Bennington numbers. They shipped directly to me at a much lower price and my insurance reimbursed me minus deductible. Dealer told me to I had to wait 6 to 8 weeks. Had my new frame in 2 weeks. I...

This is where a squeeze bulb is handy on a four stroke engine. No, the air will not hurt the engine in the fuel line, but it won’t help it either. Your best bet is to take off the filter…fill it full of gas put it back on and squeeze the bulb till hard. Good luck.

I would love to see ANY tube protectant after 1 year in salt water. After 14 years, I haven’t.

Best way to keep them out during storage is dropping dryer sheets under seats and in an old plastic container with holes.

I seen this many times. Replace your squeeze bulb with a high quality bulb or remove it completely as it’s not really needed in this day and age with 4 stroke engines which you have. If you do replace it, please notice on the bulb the arrows pointing direction of fuel flow.

Cleaning is almost always a pressure washer. Paint will depend on where and how you boat. If there is any local dealer to consult with usually is best bet. Example on my boat in salt water is ablative paint by Pacifica Plus. Also check with fellow boaters near you for helpful advise.

I own 2 sets of these. The first set started cracking after 2 years. The second set is holding up well. I store my pontoon on these outside during cold months, but I wouldn’t trust them on a homemade dolly as the material they’re made from is plastic.

Jack, that’s a great tip. I’ll be sure to share. Thank you

A little helper to me against bees, birds, squirrels, etc. Dyer Sheets! Especially during long storage.

Your best information will be from the dealer installing the Mercury. When I switched out engines, only the trim gauge was a problem. All else worked out great.

Many if not most dealers use a scissor trailer to launch and retrieve pontoons. Your lift picks up the boat the same way. That’s a good lift. Enjoy ⚓️

Bennington has/is considered the Best in the business !
