HIN: ETWK5805B121

The 2021 Bennington 18SL is a versatile 18-foot pontoon from the renowned Bennington's S-Series. Ideal for cruising and lounging on smaller water bodies, this boat is noted for its comfortable seating layout alongside outstanding performance. With a passenger capacity of 7–8, this model is commonly rigged with compact outboards within the 40–50 HP range.

Think you need a massive, expansive rig to experience the finest craftsmanship on the water? Think again. the 2021 Bennington 18SL takes the exact same unibody structural engineering and premium materials found on our flagship models and packs them into an incredibly manageable 18 foot platform. It eliminates the intimidation factor of traditional boating, offering a narrow-beam build that floats into tighter slips, trailers effortlessly behind midsize SUVs, and sips fuel out on the water.

Don't let its compact size fool you - the smart L-bench and bow lounge configuration feel twice as large as they look, creating an open social floorplan that handles up to 7 passengers with ease. Best of all, because Bennington pontoons hold their value better than almost any brand on the market, the 18SL isn't just an incredible vehicle for making family memories - it is one of the smartest, most secure financial investments you can make on a pre-owned boat today.
