I will ask my Re[pair man at Wheeler's Welding - He is checking the 'toon's integrity and fixing the waveshield/decking etc.  Getting all of this apart and getting access to it is a real bear it seems - Thankful it did not hit the Motor - or my Neighbor's F250 - or lake house......

So via the forum I was able to find and order a replacement ladder via Bearcat Ind. very quickly and it is one the way while my repairman has things apart on my 2004 22 ft RL. She got a way from me on the trailer and bopped into a tree rolling a good clip - live and learn..... And ideas in who...

Hi Folks - Have encountered OK I did in under a bridge this summer - High Water on Lake Hartwell and bent the same frame bar - same spot, a little more severely. Indeed a easy fix by ordering the part from the dealer? Started fown this road and I am planing on a new Sunbrella top this...

2004 2275 RL up on the wrong side of I-85 Kelvin - ie the SC side and headed to Clemson - on Coneross Creek. Agree that there are many more Bennies on Hartwell than there are on the site......See you at Nami's.....

Excellent Pics - Oil Changed and Boat into the water last weekend on Hartwell - lots of Pollen on the water as I tooled around last Sunday. Bought a place and boat is out of the storage cubby and in its own dock for the season.

Can you come clean out my privacy curtain area? I mean that area is spotless.......... :blink:

Lots of Smart Folks here so I will give this a whirl - 2004 Boat and the "Cam Lock" on the Anchor Light has given up. Teeth have worn out from the previous owner. Tried star washers, rubber, lock,, etc. Will not stay in the up position for long or at any speed. TB has advised that this...

I echo these sentiments as this is the primary reasons I am here typically - :blink:

My Boat is a little older "04 and has a Honda but local lockmith shop had no problem matching up the key and cutting me 3 extras from the one original I got when I bought it 2 years ago.

USAA with everything I own and they ran me through to Progressive - $250 approx for the 2004 2275 with 130 on the back. Agreed value deal as well.

I agree on the check the motor clearance point here. I trailer with a 24 foot Hustler three-bunk tandem axle with 10 inch tires (low profile-easy float on/off) and my skeg will almost touch the ground. Trim it up and use a support bracket as mentioned to take the stress off is the way to go. imho.

Big SeaFoam Fan and my Honda Mechanic swears by it. Use Stabil and a full fuel tank for my winter storage down south here.

Hi Brian - I have the 2003 2275rl version of your boat. Tri-toon with a 2002 Honda BF130 on it. Bought it last summer on Hartwell. This past off season I had the toons professionally cleaned (look like new, sharkhide I'd bet) as the boat sat in the water at the previous owners dock. I also...
