    Just ordered a Bennington

    We just ordered the 2014 Bennington 2350 RBR with the SPS Performance package 3rd toon. We have ordered a Yamaha F115 engine. Does anyone know how this engine will perform?   Planing / speed? We really won't be skiing or boarding behind.   Just cruising. Any advice?
