There are pros and cons to Sharkhide. It is a great product and can completely protect the toons from that dark grey discoloration that comes from oxidation of the aluminum. However, if a spot gets rubbed off, such as if your toons frequently rub against a dock, that that part will darken...

I've tinkered with this a bit more now. Basically, I leave my transfer switch to position 1 at all times. This means that the is the battery that gets used and changed when the boat is running. Occasionally, I will plug in the Noco unit to make sure battery #2 is not slowly draining and that...

I have a 24' bowrider, so it is a different boat. Mine is a "quad bench" layout. For MY boat there is a battery under each of the rear most seats and the walkway to the back of the boat is in the center. For mine, there is a hole in the floor that has the cables from battery #2 running though...

Hummm. I don't have that same switch, but I have two batteries and the same charger. It charges no matter which position the switch is set to. I typically only charge with the switch set to off, but it still works in other positions and I can even use the radio with the boat on the lift...

Thanks for the suggestion. I did this and it works very well. :)

I have my boat back from Mickey Shorr now. They upgraded 4 of my kicker speakers to Rockford Fosgate M1 speakers. (The M2 speakers required more power than my original amp could give and it would have been much more expensive to go with those speakers AND a new amp.) I also trashed the Kicker...

So here are the details... The stock audio components for the 2020 Bennington R bowrider 24' RTFB include the following: AMP ONLY (AMP/SUB KICKER PK) 40KXM800.5 SPEAKER, SUBWOOFER 43CWR104 SPEAKER, KICKER, SLIM, 6", RGB 46BKM614TRL Head unit is the Rockford Fosgate PMX-2 This is important...

I took my boat to Micky Shore (car and boat audio store). They were appalled when they heard my system--literally shocked that it sounded so horrible. They unhooked the Kicker Amp and adjusted the dials and pushed some buttons and the system literally became TWICE as loud and much, much...

Can anyone give me the specific details of what audio components are included in for the 2020 R bowrider RTFB with the Kicker subwoofer upgrade. Yes know it has the Rockford Fosgate PMX-2 head unit, 6 speakers and a kicker subunit. However I'm looking for specific model numbers for each of the...

The best option is to charge while both batteries are disconnected from each other. The Noco genus 5x2 unit is a smart charger. It will determine how much charge each battery needs and charge accordingly. It will monitor the health of the battery and avoid overcharging. It can even charge a...

The Noco charger will independently charge both batteries. I have only ever turned it on when the electrical cut off switch to the boat is is set to OFF (the switch choices are Off, 1, 2, and 1+2). This setting disconnects the batteries form the boat and each other which is how the charger is...

I have a Bennington 2020 24' Bowrider R quad bench which has two batteries (one under each of the two rear benches). There is a doorway in the middle of the back. There is a plastic cable conduit going under the deck connecting the wiring form the Port battery to the Starbord battery. I...
