I've been lurking on the forum for a few weeks now ... so much good info. In part due to the passion of Bennington owners on this forum, we are very close to ordering a 2014 2250 GSR. We really like the center walk through and the dual helm chairs. Before we pull the trigger, I'd really appreciate thoughts on what we are considering. Did we leave something out or have we included something that you don't think we need? We currently have a 2003 Crownline 180BR which was included with the house we bought last year on Lake Anna in Virginia. We use the Crownline for tubing and skiing and are looking to replace it with the Benny. Looking for more room, but want to maintain ability to tube and ski.
Here's what's on the order sheet right now:
2250 GSR w/200 HP Yamaha (Regatta Blue with Java interior)
ESP
Dual Battery and power distribution panel (do I really need that?)
In-Floor Storage
Hydraulic Power-Assist Steering
Full Seagrass Flooring
Standard 3-step Ladder (do I need the 4-step?)
Echo 100 Garmin fish/depth graph (don't fish, but want the depth graph)
Elevate Helm (worth the $493?)
Sony M6 Stereo with Blue Tooth
Co-Captain Lounge (wife really like this ...)
Bow Gate Seat
R-Series Captain's Chair
Ski Tow Bar
Thoughts? Thanks much.
