    Rub Rail Paint

    I wasn't sure of the correct term for it... I didn't think it was originally painted but wasn't sure. I thought about removing the paint. Just not sure how big a job that would be.

    Rub Rail Paint

    We are considering selling our 22S Saltwater Series. O e of the things I want to do before we offer it up is fix up a few cosmetic things. One of the rougher things is the rub rail around the boat. It is pretty rough looking and scratched up. Any suggestions for a paint to use to repaint it...

    Best boating lake in your state.

    Will give the Tennessee River a 2nd. We spend most of our time on Wheeler Lake but occasionally go over to Guntersville or down to Smith Lake. My only complaint is lack of places to pull up and eat on Wheeler. There is one place in Decatur but that's it. Unfortunately, Decatur gave all of...

    Simrad 7

    You get 20 MPH??? My Lowrance Hook4 stops reading at about 2 MPH. I have to be pretty much stopped before it will read. I'm pretty sure the transducer is in a high turbulence spot since it is mounted off the back of the starboard pontoon. I want to upgrade to a Simrad Cruise 5 but I have...

    Steering Problems

    I guess I should have mentioned, mine is the mechanical style with a cable, not hydraulic or power/power assist. I'm pretty sure it is an issue with the helm control box. I had my wife turn the steering wheel while I gently pushed on the linkage at the engine and together we were able to get...

    Steering Problems

    2020 Bennington 22S Saltwater Series: Had a steering issue come up today while we were out on the water. I can turn to the right with no problems. I can turn back to the left just fine until I get to the point the engine is basically centered. When turning to the left, past center, the...

    Radio Connector

    Finally managed to get time to get a few pics of the connector. Pretty sure it is a Molex but not sure of exact model.

    Radio Connector

    The hole isn't rectangular. I guess it is possible it was ordered w/o a radio but most of the wires from the radio go into a connector that matches a connector that is part of the boat wiring harness which makes it appear to be factory. I'll grab some photos so maybe they will explain more.

    Radio Connector

    If isn't factory, they did a good job at least mounting it and the Boss speakers. It is to the left of the steering wheel. It might also explain the 4 holes in a rectangle pattern around the radio. Anyway, back to the connector... If I can identify the connector I can either replace it or...

    Radio Connector

    I have the Boss MGR3500. I can get a pic of the connector if needed.

    Radio Connector

    Anyone have a source for the radio side of the radio connector? This is for a 2020 22 ft 22S Saltwater Series. The previous owner made a mess of the radio connections and some wires are cut right at the connector so I can't even fix it with butt crimp connector. Thanks

    LED Lighting Recommendations

    My wife would like for me to add colored LEDs around the underside of the deck. I have looked around at a number of different options but I can't really find anything I like. A lot of systems I see come with a remote. I don't want that because that's something else to keep up with. Others...

    Fuel Gauge Inconsistent

    We recently purchased a 2020 SS. It has been great so far but we have a few little quirks we are working through. One thing I have noticed is that the fuel gauge doesn't always read correctly. Our boat has a 90HP Yamaha F Series and has the Yamaha Command Link Tach and the Command Link...
