Does anyone know the width of this seat on an SXP model? Mine boat is currently in winter storage and I need the measurement for project

one season in and our "bow seat" is officially a port door seat! It is not tight in this spot and I'm going to look into the solution posted by goldnrod24. It's a favorite seat as it's near the captain for conversation. Problem: it tips forward if someone sits on the front edge. Are others...

I'll have to add pics later to 'make it real' Right now the damn rain has us parked in the driveway :angry: Couple of questions - does anyone use the Vesselview mobil app with their Mercury engine?  opinions? Do you have an eye welded to the rear of both pontoons or just one? We have...

What does everyone use to clean and protectonic their viny flooring? 303 cleaner and protectant? Other products? Would the 303 protectant make the floor slick?

adkboater thanks for adding in the ladies part! :P

Mercury has the same deal going on 3+2 until the end of March

kysportsman We ordered the same engine. Boat is in but no water test yet as we are locked in ice. Our dealer plans to use the Mercury Enertia. There's a lot of great info on the Mercurymarine.com website. I can't wait to see what that engine will do... the description sounds really good! Ours...

Wow CapKaz - didn't mean to get you all worked up! Deep breaths... To the others, thanks for the replies! I was just checking to see what others had experienced. Sounds like it's all over the board. We knew we had to pay when it arrived even though we are not taking delivery until the end of...

myv10 My boat came in two weeks ago and my dealer is asking (read requiring) me to pay now. Says they have to pay right away so we do too. Made it seem like standard procedure. didn't seem right to me to have warranties and all start 3 months before we could even get it in the water. Not...

Craigbk - I want to get a cover extension likes yours. Have you any photos of it that you attach?

Thanks for the ideas but We customized the layout of our boat so I highly doubt there's another one it there like it. I'm satisfied with the end result and an rest for ice out to hit the water!

Just got off the phone with the Bennington rep. They offered to reimburse the $1086 we paid for our flooring upgrade. My hubby couldn't believe it when I told him! I'm very happy with this outcome. It's for the best - We will not rebuild as we don't really love any of the flooring options and...

I should know this but...can anyone tell me what features the standard gauge cluster includes? I don't have my first Benny yet and cannot remember what I saw in the showroom! I know you don't get a speedo(meter), does it come with a depth gauge? Can't find the info on the Bennington website...

The day before yesterday, I went to the Bennington Facebook page and sent them a message. this morning, I received a kind message back. They requested that I phone a company rep. I've done so, left a message and am now waiting for a call back. I'll keep you posted on the results of that call.

How would I contact Bennington directly? I'm still not feeling that we were treated fairly by the dealer but they are not doing anything for us. Is there are customer serve number to call?
