    2011 2575 RCW 225 hp total length with trailer

    I have a Deluxe Yacht Club trailer with all the bells and whistles. Bunk style, dual axle, radials, poly wrapped bunks, disc brakes, galvanized, hand rails, led lights, center bunk, etc.. With the 250 HP Mercury hanging off the back, it is easily 34 feet long end to end. The trailer itself is...

    Non-current Discounts of MSRP

    I said SOME manufacturers have territorial sales restrictions and didn't necessarily call out Bennington and what they do and don't do. Just something to watch out for. I have experienced it first hand. Some dealers abide by the rules, and some don't at the risk of losing the dealership. "We...

    Non-current Discounts of MSRP

    The Rock on High Rock is 20-30% off, all day, every day, but they might not sell to you with other dealers in your area. Dealership protection rights with some manufacturers. Their newest dealership up at SML is incredible. LOT of boats. Big place. Much bigger than High Rock. I can't remember...

    The Prodigal Lake Mariner May Return to the Fold???

    We looked at the M Series at the Greensboro boat show recently. Very impressed. Beautiful boat. We added rear fencing and the lillipad ladder to our boat last summer. Grandkids was one reason. And, in Virginia, it's against the law to ride back there rear facing, while moving, if no fencing or...

    Boat Dimensions

    You are going to want a 10 x 10 door minimum. That's what mine is. And it's fine with bimini down in trailering position. Not overly roomy, but fine. And 40 feet long. 35 feet would be crowding it.

    Treat mooring cover with 303 water repellent

    For what it's worth. I waterproofed my cover with Starbrite, and for the 6 months mine sat outside with the cover on it, it never got a drop of water under the cover. My cover has 4 vents, so ventilation was never a problem either. But I don't cover mine at all since fall of 22. It's in a fully...

    Waterproof playpen cover

    Do you already have a cover ? Treat it with the Starbrite waterproofing liquid. That's what many of us do.

    Tropical Storm - Boat Cover On or Off?

    I pray for those in the Panhandle area and far, far beyond. The devastation from Helene is unlike anything we have ever seen. Here in NC, from Lake Norman north and west through the mountains and foothills, this was a once in a century storm and beyond. The pictures are just so very, very sad...
