Seats Turning a Light brown from covers
Anyone else have problems with your seats turning brown? When I remove my covers the tops of the seats are a light brownish color.

2500 FE trailer options
('06) SanPan 2500 FE tri-toon with 225. I have access to a two bunk trailer, can I haul it with this trailer or would I need to purchase a trailer with 3 bunks? I assume the extra toon doesn't add to much weight but what about the outboard? I assume this pontoon can be made with two bunks and a 225 and the frame supports…

Future Sanpan Owner
Hey all - I'm new around here. My wife and I are looking at a Sanpan 2500FE. I saw that the Essex offers Godfrey Owner's Club members better rates than I have found locally (Ohio). Is it possible to join this club and obtain the financing for our first Godfrey boat? Thanks - look forward to owning the Sanpan! Scott
