New Bennie
Well, I settled up this weekend on my new boat. Thought I would post a couple pictures even though they are not totally done with it. They are going to put the SharkHide on before it goes into the slip. The picture of the outside, I took a couple weeks ago before the engine was mounted. I am getting really anxious for spring now!!!

Re: New Bennie
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.

Re: New Bennie
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.

Black Pearl is taken the Jolly Roger or The Revenge would work
Re: New Bennie
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
