Thinking about upgrading to a slightly bigger boat. From my signature you can see I'm currently in a 2003 220 bowrider. Want to move up to 25-27 foot range. Don't want to buy new. Are there any recent models 2011-2016 in the 25-27 ft size that have the rear lounge seats for hanging out...

Visor and Side Curtains for SeaRay 220 Bowrider- Blue. -New never used -includes packet of snaps -visor and side curtains. -When I bought them they said they were for a 2006-2007 model. I test fitted them on my 2003 220BR and they fit. I assume the years might have more to do with color than...

Wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a low voltage disconnect. My father has a Bennington pontoon. Not that it matters but it does not have a battery switch. Unfortunately he or his guest will frequently leave the accessories switch on. Sometimes they forget, sometime they will hit...

Was pulling my boat yesterday. I drove my boat and my friend was doing the truck/trailer. When I got to the ramp I had to wait for the boat in front of me. A man was on the boat with 2 kids and a woman pulled up with the truck/trailer. The woman got out and came down to the boat. She...

there has been discussion of the hard shifting on older Bravo III drives. My 2003 Mercruiser 5.0 Bravo III is hard to shift from neutral to forward or reverse. Its not hard, its just not smooth or easy. I don't have a problem controlling it but if someone else drives the boat they do. It...

Had an unusual situation with the gear lube on my Bravo III drive. Before the season started I completed drained the gear lube. Emptied and cleaned the remote reservoir because of the grayish blue gunk that had accumulated there. I refilled the lube from the bottom, re-installed the...

I can't remember the last time I didn't go boating on Memorial Day Weekend. We won't be boating this year because my son is a member of the Limestone College lacrosse team and he and his teammates will be playing for the NCAA Division II Championship on Sunday in Philadelphia. So I hope...

When I drained my outdrive fluid the fluid came out the right color for the first approximately 2+ quarts. Normally I would have said cool and replaced the fluid as normal. Since I'm sanding and repainting my outdrive I continued to let the fluid drain overnight. At the end I started seeing...

My 2003 Bravo III outdrive is showing some signs of corrosion. The boat is kept on a solar charged 12v hydraulic lift. The only time the outdrive is is the water is when I am using it. Freshwater use only, Ohio River. First, I have included a picture of 3 of the zincs. The 2 on the other...

My boat is a 2003, I've had it since 2006 and the Bravo III props have never been tuned up. I don't believe that I've ever touched bottom and there are no nicks on the props that would show that I did. I have hit floating debris in the water, some of it possibly 1-2" diameter branches, but not...

Wondering if anyone has tried the wireless HDMI (or WHDI) for their home? I would like to put a TV on my porch but it would be difficult to run wires out there. Looking for the two way version so I can change the channel on the cable box that will be in the house on another TV set. Here is...

I did a google search of this site and all the posts were 3 years or older so I thought I would bring up a new thread to see if there are any newer recommendations. I bought a new cover OEM replacement cover for my 2011 Bennington Pontoon. The snaps are not installed on the cover yet so I...

Does 303 High Tech Fabric Guard have UV protection in it? The west marine site mentions it does but the Gold Eagle site (manufacturer) doesn't. Reason I ask: Bought a used 2011 Bennington pontoon last year and the cover is literally falling apart in your hands. To my knowledge it never...

This can't be a random shooting at 645am in a desolate area (at the time) http://news.yahoo.com/cbs-journalists-shot-killed-live-broadcast-130723506.html

This pontoon comes up our creek weekly. As you can see they ride up front with their feet in the water. I think the boaters are grandpa/grandma and the kids are their grandkids. Grandma is up front with them. I really want to say something but haven't. What would you do? does anyone...

can someone tell me the size and year of this boat? An acquaintance is towing home from Florida as we speak. He is using a 1/2 ton truck and I have some concerns when he reaches this hills of northern Tennessee. Trying to get the word to him that stopping could be a big issue.

I have Bravo III props with very hard substance on some of the surfaces. I've tried CLR, other cleaners and nothing takes it off. Any suggestions?
