We spent a lot of time on the lake the last 2 weeks and have had great times. We trailer to/from the lake since we live 5 miles from the ramp. That said, I've gotten a bit lazy this year when it comes to putting the top down to go to the house. Disclaimer: Since we live a short distance and its...

OP, hope you get it all sorted out. Had someone key my new 2014 Silverado 2 weeks after I purchased it. They keyed it from the headlight to the taillight. A week later someone opened a door on it, leaving a pretty sizable dent. 2 weeks after that someone backed into the front bumper hard...

No, you are correct. Its a requirement that you be an inconsiderate douche rocket before buying one. Its in the contract. When you register it you have to show positive proof of recto-cranial insertion.  Its like that for all searay owners down here as well. Don't get me started on the...

I tow on ours this way. 1 maybe 2 kids at most on smaller tubes. Max speed when towing is usually 17-18 mph. No issues.

Ok, so its not a Bennington. I've been in contact with our local Bennington dealer and they are nice to deal with. They are supposed to be getting me a quote on trading mine in for a 22 slrx. (but they haven't yet, its been 3 weeks) With that said, I met the owner of a local marina on my lake...

http://www.pontoonwaterglide.com/PONTOON-BOAT-ACCESSORIES-specifications-Pontoon-Water-Glide.asp Found this on a pontoon owners group on facebook. One person there reported owning it on 2 different pontoon boats with good results. The website has some results bit I'm not sure I'd trust them. My...

We can sometimes be 20 minutes from the nearest marina but have never had an issue. We have the changing room/curtain but use that area for toys, floats and such. We generally jump in the water unless it requires paperwork. In that case we are either close to a marina or close to shore. The...

We have a changing room with the curtain on our SL and have never used it. The entire space is used for storage of water toys, floats, noodles etc. If you gotta pee just jump in the lake. If ya gotta poop and you use the one on the boat no one will want to be your friend. We carry wet wipes...

So yesterday we went to the local boat show. Our Bennington dealer was there with quite a few boats but nothing we couldn't live without or at our price point. I don't have any pics but I thought it was amazing the way pontoon boats have evolved. 3 years ago the floor plans were pretty standard...

Very sad. I imagine the shooter will spend the rest of his life in jail which may only be a few years at his age. The children are the real losers here and their world is turned upside down. Many years ago I got into a fit of road rage with another person, both of us at fault. I was stupid...

We put about 30 hrs on ours last year and 32 so far this year. We spend hours parked in coves or by the cliffs anchored so not a lot of running around. I think we'll probably call it a season sometime in October. We were out last weekend and TVA is starting to drop the lake levels already on...

Frank, I may be in a very similar situation this winter or next spring. I have a 2013 20sl with a Yamaha 50 that I may trade for a 20sl tri toon with the perf package, which I assume you got. Shoot me a pm if you don't want to discuss it openly but ball park, where did you wind up at on your new...

I've had 2 Sony radios go into demo mode permanently and not work. The ipod connection does still work and will occasionally get stuck on low volume. A reset of the ipod and a power cycle of the radio usually fixes it. I say fixes it, but the radio doesn't work, just the ipod connection to play...

I've looked at the build your boat section and optioned a 20' tri with the 115/SPS for about 27k. I'm not sure I can justify that much $$ so anything with a 150 is probably out. Our son will be 9 next month and I'm already too slow at 18mph on a tube. A 20' tritoon/sps/115 is supposed to go a...

Kay, I don't know if they discussed it or not but they really should have other priorities right now if you know what I mean. ;) Till then I don't mind making sure the kids get a break to relax and have fun. The adults too. Tried to load some pics but they're too big. I'm sure everyonehere...
