Hi All! New to the Bennington Family, and it seems like there is a lot of people here who really know tricks and tips that have helped a new boat owner. I have a 2005 Bennington 25L w/a Honda 150. The issue I have is when fueling, I get major splash back unless I find the absolutely perfect way to angle the gas filler (normally side-ways after numerous splash backs). I have had experienced gas dock people have the same problem. Does anyone here have any solutions/ideas? Thanks!
 
Your vent inside the gas tank may be sticking. This happened to me several times. So I used a very long screw driver and pushed it into the gas tank fill. Then I filled up with gas and I had very little back splash. Like you I had to turn gas handle sideways also. I never had any problems after that.
