As a pontoon enthusiast, I am always excited when a new model hits the water, and the 2022 model of the Bennington Pontoon Boat R Series 25 RSBWA X1 does not disappoint. Renowned for their comfort, style, and flexibility, Bennington boats continue to lead the market and this latest addition is no exception.
The first thing you might notice about the R Series is its stunning aesthetic. The combination of stainless steel and woodgrain accents throughout its interior immediately commands attention. Add to this the Simtex vinyl upholstery and two-tone vinyl furniture, and you have a boat that perfectly combines luxury and durability. Going beyond appearances however, the R Series is a true performer. With an upgraded single outbound engine configuration, the pontoon is more powerful and efficient boasting a generous fuel capacity of 83.42, which is remarkable for a boat in its category.
Bennington also deserves credit for their attention to detail, as each feature is designed to provide an unparalleled boating experience. The boat comes with wide berth chaise lounges with fold-down armrests and cupholders, a restyled V2 pure comfort reclining captain's chair, and a swingback stern lounger, demonstrating that comfort is a priority.
Additionally, this model goes a step further with its state-of-the-art technological features. The boat features an impressive Rockford Fostgate PMX stereo system, Striker 4 Fish Graph, LED Bimini top lighting, and even a wireless phone charger built into the bow bench's arm – everything you need to entertain and enjoy a day out on the water.
From a safety perspective, the Bennington 25 RSBWA is fully equipped. The elliptical sport package comes with internal tube support, sealed lifting strakes, and a heavy-duty rub rail. It also features LED docking lights with stainless steel housings and anodized raised rails for additional stability.
Some might argue that the price tag of this pontoon is a little steep, with a list price of $136,080. However, I firmly believe that you get what you pay for. Approximately 27 feet in length, 10 feet in width, with a capacity for 14 people, this pontoon boat promises to deliver on every promised feature. Considering the level of quality, technology, and the superb features available, I believe the 2022 Bennington Pontoon Boat R Series 25 RSBWA is worth every penny.
All things considered, whether you're an avid boater or new to pontooning, the 2022 Bennington Pontoon Boat R Series 25 RSBWA X1 is a strongly recommended choice. It epitomizes luxury, power, and function, leaving an indelible impression on every passerby and passenger alike.
