The 2026 Bennington S L-Bench 168 SLJ is a 16.9-foot pontoon built around the proven L-Bench floor plan, which pairs flexible seating with substantial under-deck storage and straightforward boarding access. Powered by a single 6 hp Torqueedo electric motor, it rides on 23-inch pontoons with rounded solid keels, anodized rails, and stainless steel hardware throughout, including 6-inch cleats, corner castings, and secured deck bolts. The bow and stern feature .250-inch thick cross channels for structural reinforcement.
The interior centers on a Pure Comfort reclining captain's chair paired with an L-shaped bench arrangement and a kidney-shaped table, all dressed in soft-touch vinyl with Simtex accents and the new Shoreline woven vinyl flooring. A soft-sided bag cooler, stern storage compartment, waste container, and generous under-deck storage keep provisions organized. Stainless steel black rimmed cupholders, lighted gate glides, duraframe seat bases with powder-coated hinges, and a fire extinguisher round out the cabin appointments.
Exterior features include a quick-release 10-foot bimini top with 1.25-inch frame and trailering struts, a Surlast mooring cover with quick clips, underdeck spray deflectors, flush bow deck, stern deck, deep-step boarding ladder, extruded splash guards, and integrated docking and navigation lights. The S Series anodized streamline rail system includes full-height panels and 3-inch cross channels.
The helm houses a one-piece rotomold console with side access door, polished steering wheel, hour meter, custom Sterling gauge package with tachometer and trim, rocker switches with dash mount breakers, sealed Deutsch connectors, 12-volt receptacle with USB, and locking glove box. A new Rockford Fosgate PMX-1 head unit and RM0625 speakers provide entertainment.
