Hey Bill, sweet ride! The back end set up looks close to my Primier 25'. However the helm consol different. looks like a tritoon? What motor will it get? I know exactly how you feel. Spring can't come soon enough. Oh help......... us poor suckers! How long is it? What will you tow it with? Too many questions yet? Then get busy and share some info with us.
Welcome to the family.
Thanks for the photos love them.

Bill... congrats on the new Bennington. That is one sweet looking toon.
My son has a 2008 2275RLI, same console everything.. only difference his is beige or cream colored and his boat has a yahama 115 4 stroke on it. After we went out on his Bennington, we liked it so much we bought one ourselves, only more on the economical side. We bought a 2010 Bennington 20 SFi. Fishing seats front and rear, 75 hp yamaha 4 stroke, with vinyl, no carpet since it's mainly going to be used for fishing. Anyway enjoy your new toy. We plan to do the same.

Appreciate all the congrats on new Benny. I will get more excited when I get a chance to get out on the lake and enjoy it some. As far as the name goes, I just thought the Black Pearl was a neat name,
but since it is taken I will just wait till something comes to me.
As far as Websters goes, I wanted a slip there because of location for me. (Close) I was lucky that someone was selling their boat and leaving. It was very good timing. I was told that if I could not have gotten one when I did they would have dry stored my toon and launched it when I wanted to use it. Till a slip came available. This would have cost much less but not as convienent. I was told that offer is only for those that buy boats from them. So far my experience has been very good! Bill

Yep I liked that one to. If the wife does not like it, we can work on some others.
