    Gas caddy

    I second that, the VP cans are the way to go. Had the caddy, it's awkward and transfers slowly. Fun fact, the VP cans actually hold 6 gallons w/out spilling a drop.

    SPS turning questions

    Seastar hydraulic (non power). It just has a flat tab, no fin. Guess I will have to get a different one. Thanks

    SPS turning questions

    Have put about 20 hours on my (new to me) 23ssrx with 150. The boat seams to ride lower on the right side (I am assuming due to the weight of the console?). It also turns much sharper and easier to the right. When turning left the steering is stiff and feels like it is cavitating a bit. Trim...

    Props for 23SSRX SPS W/ YAMI 150?

    What solas prop did you go with? Results? I am happy with my 14.5x15 NS3 paired to my Yami F150. However, may try a reliance or enertia next season.

    Props for 23SSRX SPS W/ YAMI 150?

    OK, got the 14.5x15 Solas NS3. I get 36mph at 6000 rpm good hole shot and bow lift (small amount of chatter trolling). With the 14.8x 17 Solas I got 41mph at 5500 rpm. Both with just 2 people and half tank of fuel. What top speeds are you getting with the reliance or enertia?

    Props for 23SSRX SPS W/ YAMI 150?

    Thanks, I think it is maxing at about 5500. I can get a Solas Rubex NS3 14.5x15 SS at overtons right now for about $200. Wondering if that would be a good prop? Should I just pop for the enertia or reliance? Thanks

    Props for 23SSRX SPS W/ YAMI 150?

    From reading this forum it appears that a 15p stainless is the best prop for my 24' 23ssrxp w/ YAMI 150hp & SPS toons. I will be doing a lot of tubing and skiing with the boat. Has anyone had good experiences with Solas or Turning point? Should I go with a four blade for watersports? If you...

    Wave damage to front panel

    Self tapping stainless screws (not bolted through) and one though the fence bolt. Much easier to remove than I thought it would be.

    Wave damage to front panel

    I bought a Bennington with the wave damage mentioned is this thread recently. I removed the front lounger. It's 6 screws under the seat and a bolt through the fence next to gate. From the inside I bent out the channel where the panel had been pushed out with a hooked scrapping tool...

    Lake Norman/CLT region boat cover suggestions ?

    I had the same thing happen. Take it to a canvas shop and have them sew patches on the top and bottom of the tear, cost me about $100. Or if it is an older cover that doesn't have the boat vent plastic pole props. Cut out a small hole around the tear and install the boat vent (can get on Amazon).
