American Water Sports is pleased to offer this pre-owned 2023 Bennington 25 RSB — a recent-vintage premium R-Series Bennington pontoon configured with the 300hp outboard powertrain in the popular Stern Bench layout. Available at our Kimberling City location on Table Rock Lake (Stock #U-KC-M6382, Hull #ETWM6382F223), this 25-foot Bennington sits in the premium R-Series tier of the brand's pontoon lineup — Bennington's performance-and-premium R-Series family that delivers premium build quality, upgraded furniture and electronics, and the kind of refined-but-fast cruising character that the R-Series buyer specifically wants. As a 2023 model year, this 25 RSB is among the more recent-vintage premium Benningtons in our pre-owned inventory — modern equipment expectations, modern wave-shaped tube architecture, and the kind of low-hour, well-maintained presentation buyers cross-shopping recent premium pontoons specifically come looking for. Paired with the 300hp outboard powertrain that gets the 25-foot platform up on plane briskly and delivers strong tow capability for casual watersports duty, this 25 RSB is one of the more compelling pre-owned premium pontoons at our Kimberling City location this season — an ideal recent-vintage R-Series option for the premium-pontoon family who prioritizes the modern outboard configuration with premium Bennington brand build.
Bennington has been the segment-defining premium-tier pontoon manufacturer since the mid-1990s — built in Elkhart, Indiana, Bennington's pontoon lineup spans from the value-tier S-Series and SX-Series, through the mid-tier L-Series, the premium-tier R-Series, and the flagship-tier Q-Series. The R-Series occupies the premium tier — characterized by upgraded furniture and stitching, premium deck-covering options, the more-developed wave-shaped tube architectures, premium helm electronics with marine-spec GPS chartplotter and integrated multi-function display, premium audio systems, and the kind of overall fit-and-finish that R-Series buyers specifically want. The 25 RSB naming specifically: 25 for 25-foot length, RSB for R-Series Stern Bench (Bennington's stern-bench aft-lounge layout configuration). The Stern Bench layout delivers a rear-facing aft seating arrangement that's purpose-built for sandbar parking, swimming, and rear-facing socializing on the water — particularly well-suited to Table Rock Lake's sandbar-heavy weekend culture. By the 2023 model year, the 25 RSB platform was a fully-developed, current-spec premium R-Series build with all modern Bennington equipment expectations: modern fence design, modern furniture, modern deck-covering options, and the kind of contemporary helm electronics and audio packages the segment expects.
Power on this 25 RSB comes from a 300hp outboard (typically a Mercury 300L Verado four-stroke supercharged inline-six or comparable premium-spec L-shaft outboard from this vintage). 300 horsepower is the right power for the 25-foot Bennington platform — strong enough to handle the larger pontoon's mass, get the boat up on plane briskly with a full passenger and ballast load, deliver strong tow capability for casual tubing and skiing duty, and produce comfortable extended cruising speeds across Table Rock Lake's bigger water. The Mercury Verado platform (or comparable premium-spec outboard from this vintage) delivers the kind of smooth, refined four-stroke cruising character that the modern premium-pontoon segment expects — meaningfully quieter, smoother, and more fuel-efficient than the older two-stroke outboards that defined the 1990s and early-2000s pontoon segment, and notably more refined than entry-tier outboards in the 200hp-and-below class. The outboard configuration is the dominant powertrain choice in the modern premium-pontoon segment for good reason: simpler powertrain vs sterndrive (no outdrive maintenance routine), easier service access from the rear deck, more transom space for outboard upgrades or repower, and the lighter overall powertrain weight that helps the 25-foot pontoon plane more efficiently. American Water Sports is fully equipped to support Mercury and other major-brand outboard service through our shop. For the exact outboard make, model, year, and current engine hour reading on this specific 25 RSB, please contact our Kimberling City team for the build specifics.
The R-Series occupies a distinctive position in the Bennington lineup — sitting above the value-tier S/SX and the mid-tier L families, alongside (and frequently overlapping with) the flagship Q-Series in premium build content, but with R-Series-specific styling and performance-tier feature emphasis. R-Series Benningtons typically include premium furniture (with R-Series-specific stitching patterns and the kind of upholstery quality that defines the premium-pontoon tier), premium fence and railing configurations, the upgraded wave-shaped tube architecture (typically Bennington's premium ESP — Elliptical Sport Package — performance hull/tube package or comparable from this vintage), premium helm electronics with GPS chartplotter and multi-function display, premium audio system, premium navigation and accent lighting (including under-deck and color-shifting interior accent lights), Bimini or hard-top sun cover, and the kind of fit-and-finish that R-Series buyers cross-shop against L-Series Bentley, Premier, and Manitou Encore alternatives. The R-Series is often described as the buyer's-choice tier for those who want premium Bennington build quality without going all the way to the flagship Q-Series spec — R-Series brings the modern feature content, the premium furniture, and the upgraded tube package while emphasizing performance-and-styling refinement over absolute-flagship-luxury content.
The Stern Bench (RSB) layout configuration is purpose-built for the kind of sandbar-and-swim culture that defines summer pontoon use on Table Rock Lake. The aft section is dominated by a rear-facing wraparound bench that gives multiple seating positions facing aft — perfect for sandbar parking with the boat's stern facing the beach, watching towed-rider activity behind the boat, or simply enjoying the water-facing view while at anchor. Coupled with the integrated swim platform, the boarding ladder, and the outboard-mounted-on-the-transom configuration (which leaves both port and starboard swim-platform sides accessible for boarding from the water), the Stern Bench layout makes the 25 RSB particularly well-configured for the swimming-and-socializing duty cycle that pontoon buyers come to the segment for in the first place. Bow lounge layout typically features wraparound seating with integrated storage, midship cockpit with the helm position and companion seating, and integrated cup holders and storage throughout. For specific upholstery condition, deck-covering condition, audio system spec, factory option content, and any owner-added accessories on this specific 25 RSB, please see the build specifics section below or contact our Kimberling City team.
As a 2023 model year build, this 25 RSB is among the more recent-vintage premium Benningtons in our pre-owned inventory — meaningfully newer than the more-common 2018-2020 premium-pontoon listings in the segment, and benefiting from Bennington's most-recent design and feature refinements. 2023-vintage Bennington production reflects current-spec build content: modern fence design, modern wave-shaped tube configurations, modern helm electronics packages, modern furniture and stitching patterns, and the kind of contemporary fit-and-finish that recent-vintage premium-pontoon buyers cross-shop against current-model-year new builds at meaningful pricing differential vs new-MSRP. For the buyer who wants a near-current-vintage premium R-Series Bennington at pre-owned value, this 2023 25 RSB is well-positioned in our Kimberling City inventory.
