Bennington L23 Pontoons For Sale

The Bennington L23 sits in the L Series, the second tier of Bennington's four-level pontoon lineup, positioned as the more economical option while keeping the same hulls and platform as the higher-end models. The L Series spans 18 to 26 feet and carries 7 to 15 people, and the L23 is rated for 12 passengers on an 8-foot-5 beam. It uses the same Bennington construction as the costlier Q and RX Sport ranges but with more economical upholstery finishes and an aluminum perimeter fence rather than fiberglass. Bennington L Series pontoons for sale start in the neighborhood of $50,000 for smaller lengths and lower horsepower, well below the six-figure pricing of Bennington's luxury lines. The boat suits buyers who want a stable, family-friendly platform for cruising, sandbar days and light water sports.

Power comes from a single outboard, and the engine choices cover a wide range. A Yamaha 175 SHO four-stroke, the super-high-output version tuned for stronger mid-range torque, returned a top speed of 36.2 mph. A Mercury 200 horsepower delivered 40 mph, and the boat can be optioned all the way to 400 horsepower. Underneath sits Bennington's SPS performance package, a trio of 25-inch-diameter tubes with lifting strakes on both sides of the center tube and the inner sides of the outer tubes, which adds stability and increases top speed. The result is an agile pontoon with a slight inside lean in corners. Hydraulic power steering makes the wheel easy to turn one-handed, and the center tube allows a deep ski locker in the floor.

The helm carries zebrawood slate inset panels and a deluxe stainless steel tilt wheel that lays nearly flat for standing. Three stainless steel analog gauges are standard, with optional upgrades to a Simrad G07 or a Garmin up to 7 inches. A Rockford Fosgate Bluetooth stereo, USB ports and a 12-volt outlet sit at the dash, with lockable console storage and a locking glove box alongside the captain. Audio can be upgraded to Kicker speakers built to Bennington spec with larger magnets. An electric power bimini raises and lowers at the touch of a button. A raised helm platform is available, giving the captain a better forward view for docking and picking up skiers.

The standout feature is the rear swing-back plus lounge, which moves into four positions: part of an L-shaped lounge, a flat sun pad, twin forward-facing recliners, and a rear-facing lounger. An optional stainless steel keeper rail surrounds the area so passengers can sit there while underway. On one configuration the lounger folds up with a steel frame to form a makeshift changing room. The stern includes a swim platform, a curved S-shaped boarding ladder angled into the water, and grip tape along the aluminum edge. Side and rear gates let parents enclose children aboard.

Bow seating in some layouts uses a sunken conversation-style living room with stepped-down benches and a pivoting table, an unusual setup for a pontoon. The L23 carries USB-A and USB-C charge ports, including a fast-charge port, plus a count reaching 20 cup holders across the boat. Furniture is wrapped in Simtex vinyl, a cooler-touch, durable fabric-like material with diamond-patterned recessed lumbar pockets that double as phone and cup-holder storage. DuraFrame roto-molded seat bases have gutters and drains, and storage bins run beneath the seats and through deep floor hatches.

Notable options include the Blackout Lux package, which darkens the skirting, rails, deck trim, bimini frame and ladder; a stainless steel ski tow bar for water sports; a gate filler cushion that turns the bow into a J-shaped lounge; and a choice of crimped, smooth or alternating exterior panels with RGB accent lighting in 13 colors. The trapezoid table is molded from a real piece of wood for authentic grain, made of closed-cell foam so it floats. Buyers comparing Bennington L Series pontoons should weigh horsepower against use, since a 200 to 250 horsepower setup runs the mid-30s to 40 mph and handles tubing and lighter skiers, while 350 horsepower adds the low-end torque for stronger water sports. A Bennington L Series pontoons dealer can confirm current pricing, engine packages and option availability.
