Bennington L22 Pontoons For Sale

The Bennington L22 is a 22-foot pontoon in the brand's L series, the more economical line that shares the same tube platform and hull engineering as Bennington's higher-end models while using more value-oriented finishes and aluminum fencing in place of fiberglass. The broader L series spans 18 to 26 feet, carries 7 to 15 people, and rides on an 8-foot-5-inch beam, making the L22 a practical choice for families who want open deck space and a fenced, gated layout that keeps kids and grandkids enclosed. Shoppers looking at Bennington L series pontoons for sale will find the L22 outfitted with quad bench seating, a large captain's chair, and three entry points including a rear transom gate, port-side gate, and bow entry.

Power options run to outboards from Yamaha and Mercury, with 150-horsepower Yamaha four-strokes common on the L22 and a 200-horsepower Mercury also fitted to swing back models. Bennington's SPS performance package puts the boat on three 25-inch tubes arrayed at the same height, a tri-toon setup that hauls on a standard pontoon trailer without special equipment. Across the L series, a 200 to 250-horsepower outboard delivers a top speed in the mid-30s to 40 mph range, while stepping up toward 350 horsepower pushes past 40 mph with stronger low-end torque for pulling skiers and wakeboarders. The L line accepts engines up to 400 horsepower on its largest hulls.

The helm is a wrap-around fiberglass console with a locking glove door, draining top storage compartments, an oversized cup holder with cell phone holder, and a standard tilt wheel. A 7-inch Simrad touchscreen is available, with a Garmin as an alternative, paired to a Rockford Fosgate PMX2 stereo head. Chrome rocker switches, metal-bezel gauges, and a voltmeter built into the speaker charging station round out the dash, and deck hand bow control is offered for hands-free docking.

Seating centers on the swing back lounge, which gives four configurations: seat back forward, fully reclined into a bed, or aft cushions moved independently to face forward while reclining, all usable underway behind a stainless steel safety rail and gate. The fastback variant adds a sporty aft rail with aft-facing exterior speakers, and select L models can be ordered with an open sport arch carrying a functional tow point, can speakers, and wakeboard racks for water sports. A long bench on one side paired with a shorter bench opposite adds usable seating, and a swim platform, deep-reach ladder, and ski tow bar serve the stern.

Standard equipment includes Simtex cool-touch upholstery that resists heat and cleans easily, Duracast never-rot seat bases with a built-in toe kick, seagrass flooring available in several colors, and a horizontal diamond furniture pattern with deep lumbar storage pockets. Blue Ice LED speakers and high-speed USB and USB-C charging stations come standard, with optional RGB 13-color illumination, a Roswell premium audio package, heavy-duty rub rail, color-matched docking lights, and a curved-frame or 10-foot Bimini top. The gate glider system holds boarding gates open on their own and pop-up cleats ease docking. The L line starts around $50,000 before larger engines and options, well below Bennington's RX Sport and Q luxury lines. Buyers weighing the aluminum fencing should note it is easier and cheaper to repair section by section than fiberglass; clean low-hour used examples turn up regularly, so confirming engine hours, the SPS tube package, and electronics is worth doing with a Bennington L series pontoons dealer.
