    Tow vehicle recommendations

    F150 with the tow package is 12,000 lbs, you will not have any issues. I tow my 26LX with a Ford Expedition with zero issues, and my 9K RV also. Be sure the trailer has brakes - Electric over Hydraulic is best, but electric is fine for the limited towing. Also a strong believer in the...

    QX Sub not working

    Honestly, probably worth getting a stereo pro out to check and tune the system anyway, depending on the complexity of your system! Seems many of the Benny's are not wired properly to maximize sound performance. Most likely, a lose or missed connection. Of course he will leave with a full...

    Bus Electrical Bars

    Bus Bars support clean installation, but use quality, high-rated, 100% Copper, Tinned. If the one you are selecting seems like a deal, it is not. The one issue this creates is extra wire length; the battery main segment should technically be protected by its own fuse. If you are including...

    Gate opening

    You may consider an adjustable height pedestal vs a fixed! I don't see how anything would slide forward unless you are WOT at 40mph plus and do a full stop/reverse thrust. Cooler - it will slide towards the rear when going forward - combo of speed and tilt - maybe a rubber mat would help -...

    Steering issues

    Per your description of the issue - something is amiss. I would assume the only way to troubleshoot is get a tech on the boat, in the water. Pulling that hard to one side under speed - where loose steering is NOT an issue - on a manual steering system - maybe a bearing on the motor mount...

    Blue Sky cover - has anyone tried one?

    My 2021 Mooring Cover has sat in the AZ sun for 5 seasons and still holding up great (though I also have left my Bimini Up - which is also in great condition).

    Lets talk cup holders

    Wowza - my '21 26LX only has maybe 8-10 fixed holders (without the tables that add 4 each).

    22' M Swingback. What is the main difference between a Yamaha 150Sho and Yamaha 200?

    To avoid trade-ups, I just went with the 350. First Benny, Last Benny.....

    2027 22' Swingback with Co-Captain chair. Does the bolster chair fit in front of co-captain chair and still be able to open garbage? Aft gate?

    The Bolster is a feature built into the chair, making the seat taller - I love it on the Captain's Chair for steering in/around docks. The Bolster chair replaced the standard chair, it might be a half inch 'longer" at most, so no - it would not interfere. It is not particularly comfy in the up...

    2027 22' MSB Tritoon with Co-Captain chair - can we add an aft table? If you have done this, does it work and leave enough room to move about?

    I have a 26' model with CoCaptain, SB - I have both Bow and Aft tables, use both occasionally, plenty of room. When I use the aft, I need to spin the CoCoptain around to use, so only when we have a big crowd and eating together (very rare).

    How tight should a Bimini top be?

    I have a double bimini, no poles. Using the cable stays and adjusting each of the frame supports - I attempt to get the top nice and tight for WOP and Monsoons. I am confused about Poles - noting a zipper suggests you also have a double Bimini. I think we need more details, pictures.

    Cooled Cupholders

    I was interested in how these work, and found the attached info. As for the switch, the following was suggested: Digital Displays (Glass Dash): On premium trims, switching is routed through the central Garmin or Simrad touchscreen. Controls are located within the digital menus under the...

    Crunch Fence Repair / Replace

    Dealer is the only option if you want the exact part, though 2012 - style may have changed so it may not be an exact match. In this case, aftermarket will be cheaper, and age / paint fade will allow a custom paint match.
