    Blue Sky cover - has anyone tried one?

    I just ordered one a couple weeks ago. Went with an extra large for my 28’ Bennington. Playpen is roughly 21’ end for end. I too plan on using the middle lifting cleat to strap down each side. I’ll report back once I get it… Dan

    Clips

    I believe this is a dealer order item. I have them on mine and love them! Way better than the plastic clips or EZ Fenders. Very small profile that won’t interfere with your mooring cover. Dan

    Blue Sky cover - has anyone tried one?

    Do you think you could use a tarp clip with a bungee or similar to pull down the sides a little or do you think the material is not strong enough for a tarp clip? Thanks! Dan

    Rodent repellent

    The mice up here in my area make nests out of dryer sheets! Not kidding! Luckily my boats are stored inside and up high on racks but my trailers stay in my yard. I have to ensure every single hole or crevice is filled with stainless steel wool then covered with anti rodent spray foam. They love...

    My Trailer needs some work

    Use large nylon washers between PT wood and your trailer. The PT will eventually corrode your trailer prematurely… Dan

    Boat Binoculars

    I have been using for number of years now, Nikon Aculon 10 x 50 A211. They are not crazy expensive at a little over $100.00, have super clear glass and are very rugged. Very pleased thus far with them! Dan

    How to Tiedown your Benny when Trailering

    The biggest problem I see at times is some people over tighten those rear or front ratchet straps and cause unnecessary weight to the trailer bunks. All that downward pressure being applied to those straps on the pontoons adds a lot of stress to the bunks. While I do use ratchet straps on both...

    Bimini not staying in the rubber slot along arch

    This exact same issue is happening with my new Q27x2. It appears to be an issue at both corners of the arch. When they bend the rubber to go around those corners, the slot in the rubber opens up and will not hold the edge of the cover properly. It very easily pulls out of the rubber slot. It...

    Motor Well Covers

    I am in the building trades and the panel I used was a custom 3/4” panel imported from Germany that we had left over from a project we are doing. It’s super strong and rigid. Starboard panel would work fine as well and can be purchased at most online boating stores. My bilges are on auto. It...

    Motor Well Covers

    One thing I didn’t think about when installing these covers is the snaps for the mooring cover. A couple of them are in fact underneath the motor well covered area….ill have to come up with a solution for that short of taking the motor well cover on and off when putting on mooring cover… work in...
