Overview
The Manitou 23 Encore SHP575 dual-engine pontoon is a triple pontoon boat equipped with Manitou's sport handling package and luxury appointments, positioning it as a high-performance and upscale vessel in its class. Measuring 24 feet 8 inches in length overall, it features a combination of 25-inch diameter outer pontoons and a 27-inch diameter center pontoon. The boat’s empty weight is listed at 3,655 pounds, with a test weight of approximately 4,829 pounds including two people, fuel, and test equipment. Powered by twin 200 horsepower Evinrude E-Tech G2 outboards, this pontoon delivers both speed and refined handling.
Power and Performance
The dual 200 horsepower Evinrude E-Tech G2 outboards propel the 23 Encore SHP575 to a top speed of 53 miles per hour at 5,500 RPM. The optimal cruising speed was recorded at 30.7 miles per hour at 3,500 RPM, with a fuel consumption of 21.6 gallons per hour, resulting in a fuel efficiency of 1.4 miles per gallon and a range of approximately 115 statute miles while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve from the 90-gallon capacity. The sport handling package includes positive angle lifting strakes on the pontoons and a barracuda nose cone design, which enhance wave-cutting ability and improve maneuverability. The boat exhibits a distinctive inward lean during turns, attributed to the larger diameter center pontoon that sits deeper in the water, creating a V-shaped hull profile. This design not only improves handling but also reduces spray, keeping the boat notably dry. Dockside maneuvering is facilitated by Evinrude's iDock joystick system, allowing independent engine control for precise positioning and ease of backing into slips.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
At the stern, each engine is mounted on robust aluminum brackets attached to the outboard pontoons, with removable inspection panels for maintenance access. A sturdy ski tow pylon is centrally located between the motors. The swim platform extends 35 inches fore and aft, featuring a four-step reboarding ladder that extends 31 inches below the waterline and includes two large handholds, surpassing ABYC standards for safety and convenience. A 22-inch wide stern gate provides access to the cockpit, which houses twin aft-facing lounges and settees. The seating includes removable cupholders and a table, with hinged backrests that tilt forward to reveal storage compartments. The port and starboard aft lounges conceal the boat’s three batteries and additional storage, with dual-access hinged cushions enhancing usability. The optional Bimini top includes integrated LED lighting within its frame.
Helm and Controls
The helm features twin captain’s chairs that swivel and adjust fore and aft, with foldable armrests, bolsters, and fold-out footrests that allow full reclining for enhanced comfort. Instrumentation includes either conventional gauges or, as in the test boat, a Simrad Go 7 multifunction display providing engine diagnostics, GPS chart plotting, and integration with Evinrude engine features such as eye trim and winterization. The helm console also houses a JL Audio stereo system, USB connectivity, power plugs, and accessory switches arranged on either side of the steering wheel. Drive-by-wire throttle and shift controls are positioned in a binnacle to the right, accompanied by manual eye trim and tilt buttons for each engine and a synchronizer function. A toggle switch allows RPM adjustments in 50 RPM increments for fine speed control. The iDock joystick is conveniently located aft and outboard of the captain’s chair, facilitating precise boat handling. Additional storage includes a glove box and a large console compartment with access to helm rigging.
Interior and Bow Features
The port side features a 28.5-inch wide side gate, with an optional fold-out table replacing the privacy curtain. The deck is finished with optional Luna vinyl covering, and an optional center tube locker provides additional storage. The bow area includes an optional bow gate filler seat that can also be used to fill the stern. The bow gate measures 23 inches wide and is flanked by angled backrests with diamond stitching and varied upholstery textures that contribute to the boat’s upscale aesthetic. JL Audio speakers are integrated into the bow area, and hinged corner-bottom cushions provide easy access to storage compartments, one of which serves as an anchor locker—a rare feature in pontoon boats of this size. The full beam forward measures 24 inches fore and aft, with cleats on each side of the foredeck, although pull-up cleats would be preferable to minimize tripping hazards. LED navigation and docking lights are mounted on the bow sides.
Conclusion
The Manitou 23 Encore SHP575 Dual Engine pontoon combines performance and luxury in a versatile package well-suited for discerning pontoon buyers. Its twin 200 horsepower Evinrude E-Tech G2 outboards provide robust power and responsive handling, enhanced by the sport handling package’s design features. The boat’s thoughtful layout, quality materials, and advanced controls contribute to a refined boating experience, while practical elements such as ample storage, safety features, and ease of maneuvering make it a compelling choice in its category.
