The boating world has been set on fire with the launch of Bennington’s latest marvel, the 2023 S Series 208SL. As an icon in the rich history of Bennington Pontoon Boats, the new model is a clear reflection of the brand’s commitment to cutting-edge design, high-quality construction, and remarkable functionality. The first impression of the S Series 208SL Pontoon Boat is not only that it is gorgeous, but it's strikingly sophisticated.
What sets this vessel apart from its counterparts is the feature-packed interior. It includes three chaise lounges, two-tone vinyl furniture, and Simtex vinyl upholstery; every element in its place to offer the utmost comfort. The boat also includes a soft-sided cooler bag and Bennington’s deluxe flush mount speakers, promising an exceptional entertainment experience. The Pure-Comfort reclining helm chair with an integrated headrest underscores luxury and comfort.
The S Series 208SL exterior doesn't disappoint either. Flaunting 25" pontoons, anodized raised rails, and the Crystal Cap Logos, this model exudes class. The handy deep-step stern boarding ladder and quick release 10' Bimini top with Surlast embroidered boot, 1.25" frame, and trailering struts demonstrate that functionality can look good. The boat's deck is constructed using stainless steel bolts ensuring it's built to last, while the Underdeck spray deflectors assist in enhancing performance.
Attention to detail is best seen in the console features. The 2023 S Series comes with a 12-volt receptacle, courtesy light, hour meter, locking side access door, and low-profile windscreen. The all-in-one Kicker stereo system integrated into the fiberglass console provides exceptional audio quality, upping the entertainment level on any outing. Additional acclaims go to the polished steering wheel that exudes luxury, while the Zebrawood slate dash accents finish off the stylish look.
The LOA of this 2023 model is approximately 20'4.5". With an 8'0" beam, the pontoon diameter measures at 25". The fuel type is gasoline, though the capacity isn't disclosed. Depending on the tube size the boat is equipped with, it can take 8 to 11 people comfortably, attesting to its excellent passenger capacity. It proudly boasts a hull weight ranging from 1,781 lbs to 2,104 lbs, depending on configurations. With a maximum horsepower ranging from 70 HP to 140 HP, the S Series 208SL promises multiple configuration options to customize the boat to one's preferences.
