The starboard side arm rest broke on my 2275GCW helm chair on July 6th; which is the fifth time I have used the boat since it was delivered new to me. It appears that the porous plastic pivot broke. I sent pictures to my dealer today and asked them to open a warranty claim.

Update: Bennington dealer too busy/too far/too reluctant to help. Went to next nearest Yamaha dealer, which happens to be where I bought my last three new Aqua Patios. They bent over backwards to help and showed-up at my dock two days ago. As soon as the technician arrived, the clouds got...

Excellent suggestion.

. Frankly, starter fluid seems the best may to start my new motor. BooBoo

I hate to appear to be a lazy, so I spent two hours at the dock this afternoon performing the following mundane tasks: 1) Removed new dealer-supplied portable EPA-qualified, 3-gallon fuel tank and drained fuel provided by dealer. 2) Re-filled same tank with fresh fuel and marine ethanol...

I asked the dealer to delay delivery. The dealer claimed they had no space for my boat and forced me to take delivery of the boat when there was lots of snow on the ground. Who the heck thought it might snow through April? Furthermore, I assumed the rough running motor was due to the below...

Everything is shiny and new, including fuel line, tank, motor. The fuel delivery equipment is different now because of new EPA rules, which could be a contributing factor. I am very mechanically-inclined, have rebuilt motors and carbs. However, I paid for a new boat/motor/warranty. I could void...

I ordered a new 2275GCW last December 29th 2012 . It was delivered in late winter/early spring 2013. From the day it was delivered, I have had issues with the new 9.9hp Yamaha four-stroke which came with the new boat. When I moved it from the dealer's delivery trailer to the dock for storage...

WD40. I forgot about it. Thanks folks. BooBoo

Bennington factory folks applied a large 5" x 6" vinyl decal (company logo) over the nice faux wood grain finish on my helm, where a GPS/depth/fish finder might normally be installed. The logo is unclassy and unecessary. The faux wood-grained helm beneath is quite attractive, except for the...

We installed a Racor water separator/filter on my last two pontoons and never had an issue with water. I like their clear inspection housing with twist drain on the bottom. I would empty several ounces into a paper cup or beer bottle once a month before heading out into the lake for an...

I thought that was the case but was confused by post from "gudtyme", where he writes that he was expecting a 2275 GCW with double Biminis.

In late December 2012, I was told by my dealer and they told me factory confirmed that a double Bimini top was unavailable on a 2013 2275 GCW. Will Team Bennington please respond here?

Derrick, Already studied your earlier post about Wetsounds. Was hoping someone might suggest a more reasonably-priced solution, which would include the four factory-installed Kicker speakers and the Sony M6/CD/USB/bluetooth. Was thinking more along the lines of using the factory-installed M6...
