Definitely smoother Cadilac :) Thanks Link, I will pick up some Sharkhide asap

So I went to the lake this past weekend and decided to do some manual labor and see how much crud I could get off with a scrubbing brush. I got most of the surface algae off the outer pontoons but they still felt like 100 grit sandpaper. An ice scraper may have been the ticket!! I couldn't get...

Ok great, thanks for the replies. Definitely a good place to start eliminating the obvious. Hey Bulldog, yeah sorry it's the 2575. I did check the props and nut and couldn't find any damage or anything missing/loose. BigKahuna, I was also thinking we should easily still see low to mid 30's...

Hey guys.....bit of a long read...but Im totally stumped so before I take the boat back to the dealer I wanted to see if anyone has had something like this happen. We got our 2275 QCW I/O with the 5.7 Volvo Penta last year about this time and absolutely loved it. Boat would do 40 to 42 mph...

Are there any other options as far as a taller ski pole for the 2575 QCW I/O I have the one supplied by Bennington but it's a little on the short side, I don't want to go crazy and get one that will ruin the boat but at least something 1-2 feet taller than stock! any help would be greatly...

Thanks guy's, yeah it has a power sterring system, I will do a search and see if I can find that thread I will check that basic stuff(wires) first and see what I come up with. It's the upgraded Sony Marine System that is an option on Bennigton's site. I will post pics as soon as we get the...

2575 QCW w/ Volvo 5.7 I/O Top Speed Just wondering if anyone has this setup and what is the Top Speed, I thought I saw 44mph somewhere but I'm not sure.

Yes cwag all 3 logs have strakes on them. Ben, not sure of the speeds we are seeing (no speedo) but possibly mid to high 20's if I were to guess. I will try gauge the speed this weekend with a gps. So if I drop down should I just go with a 13.75 X 13P ?? Thanks very much for the input.

Hi Guy's New to the forums and a proud owner of a 2012 Bennington 2275 GCW (Tri Toon) with a 115 4-Stroke Mercury Im sure there is no definitive answer but I was hoping to get a better idea on prop selection. I am currently running a 13.75 X 15P 3-Blade prop and with 3 people on board and a...
