    How to know if ordered boat has gone into production

    Mine was ordered in late February, showed up at the dealer on Monday & I'm picking it up on Friday (supposedly). It came to dealer along with three other boats & they had the engine there waiting. Hoping it all works out as planned.

    Is SPS upgrade worth it if using boat purely for cruising

    Yeah I was wondering about that. Maybe better off just adding strakes.

    Is SPS upgrade worth it if using boat purely for cruising

    Thanks for all the great advice, I really appreciate all the input from experienced boaters! It looks like I will be going with a 21SLX with a 115 EPP. When I got the quotes back the dealer was able to mark that model down by far the most for some reason, so I was able to get everything the...

    Is SPS upgrade worth it if using boat purely for cruising

    Ive priced it out on Benningtons website and passed it along to the salesman I have been working with to give me a quote on several options.

    Thanks for the helpful response. I have heard before that the 150 has better fuel economy than the 115 at regular cruising speeds. I am on a chain of 9 lakes, the biggest 2 lakes on the chain are 1100 acres each and relatively calm. Like any lakes, they can get choppy at times and with my...

    Is SPS upgrade worth it if using boat purely for cruising

    Hi All, I currently have a 2008 Bennington 2050GS with a 40hp honda 4 stroke that I purchased 3 years ago when I bought my lake house. We use it for cruising around the chain of lakes, beaching it at sandbars, late night cruises etc. I also have a v-drive wakesurf/ski boat so we don't have any...
