$36,990

If you're looking for a high-end performance tritoon that combines luxury, power, comfort, and serious on-water presence, this 2012 Bennington R22 is an incredible setup.

This is not your average pontoon. The Bennington "R" Series was the top-of-the-line luxury model lineup from Bennington - built with premium materials, upgraded construction, high-end seating, and performance-focused tritoon engineering that still stands out today.

Powered by a massive 250 HP Evinrude E-TEC, this Bennington has the power to cruise comfortably, pull tubes and skiers effortlessly, and even reach speeds around 50 MPH depending on load and conditions.

At 23 feet long and rated for up to 16 passengers, this is the perfect luxury family boat for entertaining, cruising, sandbar days, watersports, and all-day lake use.

Serious Tritoon Performance250 HP Evinrude E-TEC Power

Hanging off the back is a powerful Evinrude 250 HP E-TEC outboard that delivers:
✔ Strong acceleration
✔ Excellent top-end performance
✔ Instant throttle response
✔ Great pulling power for tubing & skiing
✔ Smooth cruising at higher speeds
✔ Clean modern outboard styling

The E-TEC series became well known for:

• Strong torque
• Lightweight performance
• Low maintenance ownership
• Excellent fuel economy for the power level

This setup has serious performance for a luxury tritoon and absolutely transforms the way this boat handles on the water.

Performance Tritoon PackageElliptical Center Tube w/ Lifting Strakes

One of the biggest upgrades on this boat is the premium elliptical center pontoon package with lifting strakes - a highly desirable performance upgrade that dramatically improves the ride and handling.

Benefits include:
✔ Better flotation
✔ Improved rough-water ride quality
✔ Increased stability
✔ Faster planing
✔ Better cornering performance
✔ Higher top-end speed
✔ Smoother handling in chop

This performance package was an expensive upgrade when new and is a major reason this Bennington performs more like a fiberglass sport boat than a traditional pontoon.

These older high-end Benningtons were built incredibly solid and have a noticeably heavier, more premium feel than many newer lightweight pontoons on the market today.

Luxury "R" Series Interior

The Bennington R Series was designed to compete with the highest-end luxury pontoons on the market, and the interior still looks phenomenal today.

Interior Highlights

✔ Premium diamond-stitched upholstery
✔ Plush high-back lounge seating
✔ Wraparound rear conversation lounge
✔ Beautiful soft-touch vinyl throughout
✔ Premium helm design
✔ Spacious walkthrough layout
✔ Tons of under-seat storage
✔ Premium woven-style flooring appearance
✔ Rear sun pad insert setup

The interior condition is extremely impressive for the year and clearly shows pride of ownership.

The rear lounge configuration creates an incredible social setup for:

• Sandbar days
• Entertaining guests
• Sunset cruising
• Relaxing at anchor

This layout feels much more like a luxury patio on the water than a standard pontoon.

☀️ Power Bimini Top

One of the standout features on this boat is the power-operated bimini top.

✔ Open or close the bimini at the touch of a button
✔ Instant shade when needed
✔ Easy operation compared to manual tops
✔ Great premium convenience feature

This is a feature many buyers specifically look for in higher-end pontoons.

Premium Helm & Captain's Area

The captain's helm has a clean luxury appearance with:
✔ Premium steering wheel
✔ Full instrumentation package
✔ Rocker switch controls
✔ Upgraded captain's chair
✔ Excellent visibility
✔ Integrated electronics area
✔ Premium Bennington dash styling

Everything about the helm area feels upscale and thoughtfully designed.

That's a massive capacity for entertaining family and friends comfortably.

Perfect for:
✔ Large family lake days
✔ Sandbar gatherings
✔ Cruising with friends
✔ Watersports
✔ Firework nights
✔ Long weekends on the water

Few boats combine this much seating, comfort, and performance in one package.

Additional Highlights:
✔ Premium Bennington exterior design
✔ Stainless accents throughout
✔ Rear swim ladder
✔ Large rear swim platform
