Congratulations! Great build on your new Bennington. You're going to love it.

Congratulations on the new order.  I can appreciate your excitement as you wait on summer and its delivery.  Enjoy...and pictures when it comes in.  :)
 
Nice build kysportsman.  I had to go to the build site to see what color "firecracker" was.  I like it, can't wait to see your pixs
 
Welcome kysportsman! Nice build you have coming this spring. I take it you plan on doing some fishing... lol
 
I won't get to fish near as much as I would like, stiil working a lot of overtime. But Me, The Wife and our fur baby will enjoy it every chance we get the next 4 years until I retire. I usually take a week vacation in april and go to Dale Hollow we have some propery about 10 minutes from the State Park. Setup the RV and fish all week with some cruising mixed in.
 
Sounds like a great time, I'm sure you'll enjoy your Bennington!!
 
Sweet build!! I was debating on Firecracker. Wife shot it down .. lol!  Make sure to post up pics when you get her!!
 
I was lucky My Wife liked the Firecracker.
 
My dealer got this drawing from bennington for approval. It getting a little closer, I'm ready to go fishing. :rolleyes:

Nice to get exactly what you wanted, enjoy
 
i see that you removed the storage areas at the front of the boat.  Are you not planning on running a trolling motor?  The plans show a livewell in the storage area at the back of the couch.  Do you need two livewells that close together.  
 
Congrats and enjoy the new boat!

I plan on running a motor guide xi5, there is battery storage in under were the tackle boxes next to large livewell. That's where the engine battery is and there is room for at least 1 if not 2 more. The little livewell in the back will serve as a bait well when trolling. Everyone of the sf and sfx's I looked just didn't have enough leg at the front seats for me. 
 
That makes sense.  The SIL is 6'4".  When fishing in Canada, he sits in the front chair and puts his feet under the trolling motor front gate.
 
I finally got a timeline on my build it will be built around the 3/9/17. I got this info from my dealer today he also said that any new orders would be about 12 weeks. Benny must be getting really busy now.
 
Ordered mine on 1/23 and still don't have a build date. I know my dealer has slots it's a matter of assigning my build in the schedule. It's  allowed me to add a few items. I decided to add  a few of the lighting options like 6YC Yamaha gauges, remote stereo, lighted  cup holders, side illumination, underwater.  I hope they build it soon as keep adding stuff all though I think I have about run of anything I would want to add.
