CONTINUOUSWAVE

Hi. I just bought a 2018 170 Dauntless with a 115-HP engine and I am experiencing the same [steering behavior]. I had [the steering system] hydraulic lines bled, and this seems to have helped somewhat, but [the effort at the helm required to steer is] still heavy. I also find that there is strong en...

Thanks for the reply. Yes I agree, perhaps it is best to fold up [the Bimini top] in the forward position when on a mooring. Do you think it is safe to leave [the Bimini top stowed] in the forward position WITHOUT the front straps attached when moored? That way I could use the console cover at the s...

I just bought a 2018 Dauntless 170 with a console cover and bimini top. I like to leave the bimini top up at all times, even when moored up.

I don't want to spend a ton of money for a custom cover; I won't be trailering the boat with the cover, and the cover won't be exposed to sun or the elements. What...

Thanks for the tips. Which Sunbrella mooring cover are you using? Seems to be a lot out there. I was originally planning on just covering the console and pilot seat, but it sounds like I should be doing the whole boat? The more sun and weather are blocked from the boat, the less deterioration will o...

Hi. I just bought a 2018 Dauntless 170 to be delivered next spring. It will be used on a lake and left on a mooring for the summer. I purchased the bow cushions, bimini top, the console cover, and the pilot seat cover. Will these covers be sufficient for leaving on the mooring for the summeer? Do I ...
