    Boat Seat Allergy (SimTex)

    We have been boating with Bennington for many years. There seems to have been a big change with the vinyl used on the seats. My husband is highly allergic to whatever is used in the new vinyl. Our old boat (2010) did not irritate his skin. However, the 2017 Bennington seats cause painful...

    Vinyl repair - patch?

    An area on the rear of the captain chair on my 2017 pontoon has damage where the vinyl rubbed against the metal railing. I found the damage when I removed the winter storage wrap that was installed by the dealer. I don't recall the damage when I dropped it off for winterizing. I'm hoping...

    Replaced Floor and Seats

    Have a 2004 2550 RL. Carpet was ugly and getting worn, and seats were starting to tear. Replaced flooring with vinyl and we absolutely. Was quite a bit of work, but not as horrible as I would have expected. I did not replace the wood - mine was fine. Rented a floor sander to get it smooth...

    2017 R Series

    I currently own a 2011 2275 GSW and was thinking about upgrading.  I have decided to go with the Bennington RSR, Harris Grand Mariner or Premier Intrigue.  I went to a boat show to investigate the 2017 Bennington and was underwhelmed.  Perhaps the upholstery (vinyl) is intended to be quite...

    deck coverings and temperatures

    Does anyone out there have any definitive info regarding just how hot vinyl vs Seagrass vs Aquateak vs carpet is. This has nothing to do with how they look, just how uncomfortable they may be on bare feet. I have a deadline of Monday/Feb 16 to decide between Seagrass and Aquateak in nutmeg or...

    Seats Stained on New Bennington

    Happy to be the owner of a 2014 20 SLX!  Completely love it!  Just one thing... We took delivery just 3 weeks ago and almost immediately saw small grey stains on each of the seats. The stains are mostly about 1/4 inch or random shapes. Some larger.  We're using the playpen cover and can't...

    Buy more vinyl + subwoofer question

    I'm struggling to find a good way to install a subwoofer in my 22 SSL and I'm considering building a small sub enclosure and mounting it behind the captain's chair. It would be really nice to buy some more vinyl that is exactly the same material as the seat upholstery to cover this sub...
