Makes sense. I’m so happy with this boat so far. I left the jet for a pontoon that was too farty but the fit and finish on my Bennington pontoon was way better than Yamaha too. Now keep in mind my Yamaha was a 2012. If I didn’t have to get a lift again I would have tested a 275 though I like the jet drives. Can’t keep them at my dock in water is a real killer. Add in cost of lift and the ugly factor of lift blocking my view I had to leave the jets.
