2023 Bennington 25 Q Fastback - Quad Bench w/ Arch

Ninety-three hours. That is all this 2023 Bennington 25 QFBA, stock #5030, has on it. A blue Q Series tritoon with a Yamaha 300 hp four-stroke, 28 feet 3 inches overall, and for practical purposes a new boat at a used-boat price.

The QFBA is the Fastback quad-bench layout, and it is worth understanding the difference. Where a Swingback gives you one convertible bench, the Fastback quad-bench arrangement puts four lounges around the deck, so more people get a proper full-length seat at the same time. The sleek Fastback stern closes the boat off cleanly behind the aft lounges and carries the speakers. If you regularly have six or eight people aboard rather than three or four, this is the layout that pays off.

Q Series finish means detailed-stitch upholstery, reclining captain and co-captain chairs, soft-touch woven flooring, RGB accent lighting, illuminated cupholders, premium cabinetry, and a large in-floor locker sized for watersports gear rather than for towels. That in-floor compartment is a genuinely useful feature: boards and ropes go below the deck instead of under everyone's feet.

At the helm there is a touchscreen display with integrated vessel controls, GPS and depthsounder capability, digital Yamaha monitoring, hydraulic steering, and Bluetooth audio with USB charging. Outside there is a bimini, an extended aft swim platform with boarding ladder, ski tow capability, docking lights, and stainless accents. Fifty gallons of fuel, 4,243 lbs dry, fifteen-person capacity.

Why this is the right boat: 300 horsepower on a 4,243 lb tritoon is quick enough to pull anything your family wants to ride, the quad-bench layout seats a real group comfortably, and 93 hours means the depreciation has been paid but the boat has not been used. On the Lake of the Ozarks this is the size that works day to day, easy to slip, easy to dock, cheap enough to run that you take it out on a Wednesday evening.

It is at Kelly's Port in Osage Beach, a family-owned marina on the Lake since 1977 and a long-standing Bennington dealer. Storage, slips, gas dock, ship store, and our same-day service guarantee are all here. Call 573.348.3888 about stock #5030. Ninety-three-hour Q Series boats do not sit.
