As we sail into 2023, the Bennington Pontoon Boat SX Series 23SXL stands out as a prestigious choice for water enthusiasts. There are few boating experiences that compare to gliding over the waves on a Pontoon Boat, and Bennington has taken the game to new heights with this upgraded Pontoon Boat series. This model, the 23SXL, showcases the high-quality craftsmanship, luxurious amenities, and superior performance that Bennington is reputed for.
One of the first things I noticed was the vessel's generously sized 24-gallon fuel tank, allowing for extended cruising without frequent stops for refuel. With a usable capacity of 21.4 gallons, the SX Series 23SXL is in a league of its own in the realm of Pontoon Boats.
Beyond the practical aspects, the 23SXL shines with its exquisite interior and exterior design. Within, it features Radius Bow and Stern Furniture, 4 Chaise Lounges, Two-Tone Vinyl Furniture, a Soft-Sided Bag Cooler, and an SX Style Reclining Helm Chair - all luxuriously finished with Simtex Vinyl Upholstery. These comfort-driven designs promote the plush experience that Bennington is known for, turning the typical boating experience into an extravagant outing. The opulence extends to the exterior of the 23SXL, with 25-inch pontoons, anodized raised rails, and a deep-step stern boarding ladder, ensuring that quality and style infuse into every element.
When it comes to performance, the boat boasts multiple configurations. With the ESP Performance Package, this boat has a carrying capacity of 13 persons, a maximum horsepower of 250 HP, and a hull weight without engine of 3,209 lbs. Safety measures such as fire extinguishers are standard, as are the Duraframe Seat Bases and Powder Coated Seat Hinges.
The SX Series 23SXL also features Zebrawood Slate Dash Accents and a Kicker Stereo System for added luxury, along with a plethora of other amenities designed to make your time in the water as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The MSRP is $46,795, with an invoice price of $36,032.
Because of its standout features and impeccable design, the 2023 Bennington Pontoon Boat SX Series 23SXL signifies why Bennington continues to lead in the Pontoon Boats category. It's not merely a Pontoon Boat; it's a Bennington. And that is a distinction that comes with a promise of unmatched quality, performance, and luxury.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
