    Cuddy size

    I can easily fit at 6'2" with my fiancé at 5'7" on the 2550 SX berth. You may want to look for a 265 SSI as a minimum comfortable cuddy size. The 215 SSI is tiny and the cabin isn't really usable.

    High pitch metal noise when propeller is in gear

    I agree. Sounds like gear whine.

    I love fall boating!!!

    You guys are brave winterizing that way 😁 I always drain and the back fill manually, making sure I fish the drains and see the AF come out before putting the drains back in. Takes longer, but is bulletproof.

    Vinegar Vs No Vinegar

    No. Vinegar is good for waterspots only. It is not a replacement for on/off or toilet bowl cleaner for severe tanin stains.

    Vinegar Vs No Vinegar

    I like it for the UV properties. It's a polymer sealer that removes water spots which can be applied with a microfiber towel.

    Vinegar Vs No Vinegar

    Give her a quick coat with Boat Bling Hot Sauce. It will get rid of the waterspots and has UV inhibitors!

    Can still add them for only 2K...it's really easy. I did it to mine. Only cost $600 because I diyed it, but I'm a mechanic so ymv.

    2023 Trip Report: Pictured Rocks, Lake Superior and Washington Island, Lake Michigan

    Wow those are some interesting tow rigs! Would love to see some pics! Thankfully, the Durango is rated for 7400 lbs. I find it to be well-matched for this size boat. I think the MPG of 14-15 towing speaks for itself as well.

    I won't wait too long, but I did make it 1,000 miles without brakes this time. The Durango is a much, underrated tow vehicle. It's better than most all SUVs, all small trucks, and on par with a lot of 1/2 ton trucks. Even with RWD, I've never had any issues retrieving or stopping.
