I am from Ontario Canada. We just ordered our first Bennington pontoon yesterday. We went for the R series model 2250 RCL with a 250 HP Evinrude ETEC. What kind of speed can i expect to get out of this rig and also how this handle rough water as all of our boating is done in Long Point Bay on lake Erie. This is our first pontoon we were used to runabouts. Thanks looking forward to any input.
