Bennington 22 SLX Pontoons For Sale

The Bennington 22 SLX is a 22-foot pontoon measuring 8.5 feet wide, built for families and groups who want a traditional lounge layout with room for up to 10 people. The 22-foot Bennington pontoon comes in a twin-tube configuration or a tri-toon package, and buyers can specify the seating to suit how they use the boat: a full bench on the port side or a pair of reclining captain's chairs in what's called a port table group. The standard arrangement pairs facing front loungers up forward with a full lounging couch and chaise on one side, plus L-shaped seating across the stern that lets passengers face inward around a cockpit table.

Power on the 22 SLX is typically a Yamaha 115 four-stroke, with motor options ranging from a 50 horsepower up to a 200 horsepower depending on the performance you want. The tri-toon (Express triple) version runs a three-log setup, while two-tube models use twin elliptical 32-inch tubes with lifting strakes for better top-end speed and higher capacity. Upgraded pontoon diameters of 25 inches are available for added stability, and the tri-toon delivers strong bow lift and handles rough water well.

The helm uses a one-piece fiberglass console that resists spider cracking, fitted with a tilt steering wheel and side-mount Yamaha controls positioned for a natural, upright driving posture. A color GPS screen is offered along with fish finder and depth finder upgrades, and the dash carries a tachometer with a built-in hour meter. The deluxe captain's chair swivels and adjusts, and a Kicker stereo with Bluetooth, AM/FM and a USB port is standard. A lockable storage compartment sits beneath the console.

Storage and seating are integrated throughout the 22-foot Bennington pontoon boat. Forward compartments open on both the left and right, the loungers lift for additional storage, and a long starboard compartment holds fishing rods or the cover. Seats are rotocast so there's no mold inside, and they drain. The stern includes a changing room and privacy enclosure that pops up for a porta potty or changing clothes, with the starting battery and battery switch housed inside. Above it sits a rear sun deck with its own storage opening and a gas tank access cap, plus an extended rear deck for water activities. Three gates provide entry at the front, the side and the rear, where a boarding ladder is fitted.

Build details set the 22 Bennington pontoon apart. The seating uses Bennington Simtex upholstery, a cloth-feel material with a vinyl backing that stays cooler and wipes clean, and the deck is finished in woven seagrass vinyl flooring that hoses out and avoids the mold and mildew of carpet. Stainless steel corner castings, not polished aluminum, frame the deck, and docking lights are available. Every 22 SLX comes standard with a 10-foot bimini top and a playpen cover that uses quick clips rather than snaps.

Coverage is a major reason buyers choose this boat. Bennington backs the 22 SLX with a 10-year stem-to-stern warranty that covers parts and labor on the entire boat to the original owner, including seat cushions, seams, stereo and canvas, and even components not manufactured by Bennington. When shopping a 22-foot Bennington pontoon for sale, weigh the tube package, the horsepower rating and the seating and electronics options against how you plan to use the boat.
