As a new toon owner was wondering if any of you had any tips for me winterizing my boat. It will be in Louisiana so extreme cold is unlikey and I plan on leaving it in the water as I don't have a boat slip. Is that OK to leave it in the water. Also, the Yamaha 115 on the back, anything special...

I cracked one of these black plastic things that hold the bimini frame on the boat. Would love to find out where to buy another one.

Need a boat cover for the 2006 GS2275 we recently purchased. Snaps already installed, just can't figure out where to buy the one perfect for the toon. Need it primarly for setting at the dock during the week to keep the bird *&*^ off and the pecans that the squirrels crack and drop on the...

My accessory switch controlling the live well is inop. I just bought this 2007 GS 2275 and have looked up underneath for connections or fuses but there seems to be two different sets of wires coming out of each accessory switch so don't really know what I'm looking at. Are there 'in line' fuses...

Ran my pontoon under a low hanging bridge. My fault. But broke one side of the tubing on the top and bent the other side. Long story short is that the whole piece needs replaced. 1 1/4" square tubing, the complete long piece that curves around the whole back of the boat (Couldn't have been one...
