    Mercury outboard 150 seems excessively loud...

    Do you have Sea Legs? Hard to see in that picture, but looks like it is already at the top hole (lowest motor in water setting?). My 2019 22 GSR two log pontoon was at the highest bolt (lowest motor setting) and I could never trim up the 115 motor (prop dialed in for recommended RPMs) while...

    Seat Upholstery cup holder 2025 20SL

    I am sure that is disappointing on a new boat. Great to have the nice long Bennington warranty, but still a headache.

    Fuel fill slow and burps out of funnel?

    Is the fill tube attached to your gas can? Might help others if you happen to have a picture given the number of people who have posted on this topic. I am interested just because the white little “safety” nozzle does seem to take a while to empty a 5 gallon can.

    Is there a taller pole for the seat?

    There are numerous after market systems that can raise and lower the seat. The key is to find one with the same base so that you can just swap out the key parts. For example...

    Fuel fill slow and burps out of funnel?

    If you still have the problem at the gas station pump, this insert unfortunately probably isn’t your answer.

    Fuel fill slow and burps out of funnel?

    Scott, are you using the small white funnel to open “flapper valve?”

    2000 2275FS Parts Manual & Elec Schematic

    Just a thought - Could you just use some heat shrink tubing to repair or maybe it is just time to replace the entire posted area given the age?

    Used Bennington Tritoon

    That seems like a reasonable price. I assume it is a tritoon? The big question is hours and condition of motor.

    Question on 2024 25' QX w/Fastback Arch and Windshield (quad bench)

    Correct. It was on the dealer floor. I believe both Bennington and the dealer were offering incentives on the 2024’s given that they already had 2025’s. We were lucky that it had what we wanted and the color worked out ok also. We also received an extra 3 years or Warranty on the Yamaha (3 +...

    Battery Terminal Cover

    My 2024 has the same battery cover. It is a full top battery cover. I also noted that they used different wiring for positive and negative wires making it impossible to mix them up. The positive is a big fat clamp like my F150 while the negative is the small loop with a different nut. My...

    Why the beeping

    Might also want to confirm it is peeing. My Yamaha would beep when clogged with weeds and limited cooling.

    First Time Buyer / Good Price

    That price in my area is very reasonable IMO given the 90hp motor, versus 50, and that it includes trailer and all taxes and fees. Prices can vary based on geographic region, competition, and inventory levels. You might want to check the weight capacity limit to determine how close you will be...

    Throttle position in reverse

    That is not normal IMO. I have had two Yamaha 115’s and reverse engaged about the same distance from center as forward would engage. Sounds like the a rigging cable issue that dealer should fix under warranty.

    Where did my speed go?

    Any chance you have bad gas? When was the last time fuel and water separater filters changed? Does the engine feel like it is firing as normal or maybe time for new spark plugs?

    Blue Sky cover - has anyone tried one?

    Maybe I am missing something. Why even install the poles if winds are low and the intent is just a quick protection from spiders, birds, etc.? The Blue Ski cover doesn’t use poles and is not waterproof, correct. Just toss on the normal cover, snap every 3rd or 4th clip, and call it a night.
