Can you name the dealer, or at least the city they’re located in?

I assume that’s something the dealer or Bennington would have to check. I‘m guessing that they would use a laser and possibly a jig.

Have they checked the frame to make sure it’s square and not bent? Have they checked the mounting points to ensure they are as to Bennington specs? Have they checked the toons to ensure they are not out of spec (e.g., bent, twisted, etc.)? Good luck!

There’s a tritoon on our lake with a 300hp outboard. Too many to count with 200 hp outboards. I’ve got a 2015 2275 G with 150hp Yamaha with the lifting rails and steel prop. I’ve had it up to 32 mph at a about 5000 rpm. The Governor on the boat (wife unit) won’t allow it to go any faster. if my...

Have you talked to Yamaha or a dealer as whether you can get more HP out of your 150? I was told somewhere by somebody that the 150’s and 200’s are essentially the same. I don’t remember what they said the difference is. I also don’t know if any of it was true. Can you add performance lifts to...

Thanks!

Looks like you got yours off the floor. Did the dealer indicate that they had access to boats, or are boats scarce again this year. Great looking boat! Thanks.

In Tennessee, I've been on two lakes. Tim’s Ford lake is a nice lake to own a water front house with a slip. But can be shallow off the main channel (especially in the winter). Very few on water refueling points. Center Hill lake, where my Tritoon is docked, is very big (long), very deep, a lot...

The marinas on our lake (Center Hill) base the price on what they paid to fill their tanks. It’s been $6.50 here, but they only sell 90 non-ethanol. Was told by our marina it would probably drop at their next fill up. Side note to the previous posts on AC units. Some of the manufactures have...

Thanks to all for the comments above. Was considering upgrading to a bowrider from a G22 tritoon (used on a very large lake in TN). Based on the comments above, I'll pass. But will check into the ESP tube option.

I currently have a G22 tritoon that I'm happy with but saw a Bennington Bowrider that looked interesting. Anybody do the switch and care to share their opinion?
