Bennington has been a mainstay in the boating industry for several years and has a long-standing reputation for crafting high-quality, luxury pontoon boats. This is heavily reflected in the design and make of their latest offering - the 2022 Bennington Pontoon Boat R Series 25 RCW. I had the opportunity to get an in-depth look at this beauty and it’s safe to say that it lives up to the hype. Let's dive into the details.
Immediately noticeable is the massive 25-gallon fuel tank, indicating this boat is built for long cruises. On entering, one is greeted by two portable cup holders with immaculate Zebrawood Slate Trim, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the boat. The freedom and relaxation offered by two Stern Facing Super Lounges, complemented by Enhanced Headrests and Grab Handles, are indeed unparalleled.
Comfort extends to the wireless phone charger in the Starboard Bow Bench Chaise Arm and the Simtex vinyl upholstery adding a luxurious touch to the furniture. Moreover, the convenience of cup holders, wastebasket, and a hidden restroom enclosure cannot be overstated.
Looking at the boat’s exterior, one can see the durable full-height panels, sturdy stainless steel gate, rail system, and absence of detail that seems out of place. The 25" pontoons, paired with anodized raised rails and the dimensional chrome badges and logos, make a strong style statement. The Pontoon's design is a brilliant blend of practicality and style with features such as Large Radius Bow Rails with 24" Gate and Quick Release 10' Bimini Top.
This boat is not just about looks, though. It's built to perform and accommodate. Depending upon the tube size and configuration, the boat comfortably holds 12 to 15 people without compromising on the cruising experience. The maximum horsepower ranges from 150 to a whopping 450, emphasizing the power this boat holds beneath its plush interiors. The fuel capacity of 23.2 gallons suggests that this Pontoon boat can go long distances without requiring frequent refuelling.
Understanding the dealer's cost can help in striking the best deal and the 2022 Bennington Pontoon Boat R Series 25 RCW, priced at $74010 MSRP, is worth every cent. Its durability, stylish design, performance, and its enhanced level of comfort make it an excellent investment for anyone passionate about boating. It encapsulates the essence of a perfect pontoon boat committed to providing a relaxed and luxurious boating experience.

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
