Disconnect the front winch and rear straps. Back up real fast. Slam on brakes just before the trailer enters garage. May take 2-3 attempts. Sorry, that's all I got.
That's us as well. We probably stay in the 10-12mph range the most. Of course most of our outings are evening/night cruises and the slow going makes it easier to hear music and conversation.
I can second the "if it's in the water you will use it a lot more" statement. Especially when you been out on the water all day, you're hot, tired, hungry, etc. It's so nice to just dock the boat, cover it, and then get in the car and leave.
What do you plan to do with the boat? I previously had a 22SSRX with a Merc 115 and SPS, and it was plenty of power for us. However, we mostly just slow cruised around the lake. I had no problems taking 6-8 people out but again, we just went for leisurely cruises. The few times I did pull a...
Wow. I never realized how bad you folks up north have it. For me, winterizing means putting on a sweater...maybe a jacket in extreme conditions, before I go boating.:D
Slightly off topic...but how is everyone storing their anchor line? I have a homemade box anchor (mine doesn't collapse like the store bought ones) and I just wrap my line around it for storing, but it somehow always seems to get tangled.
I had same problem on my previous Bennington. Garmon Echo 101 stopped working around 10-12mph. I lowered transducer and problem solved. In the pic below the two holes are where it was mounted prior to me lowering it. No comments about the dirty toons:)...this pic was taken the day I sold the...
TexAgg56, it depends and how you define "useful light". I rarely use them but if I need to light up the console area to find something at night they are useful for that and not much else. I didn't order them, they were already installed on the boat I purchased off dealer showroom floor. In my...
We have a quite a few dock owners that install their lights pointing outwards into the lake. It can be very distracting and also makes it difficult to navigate at times. I'm not sure why some feel the need to point them outwards instead of downward to light the area right around their docks.
