2026 Bennington 26 M Fastback - Quad Bench

This new 2026 Bennington 26 MFBA, stock #4903, is the M Series Quad Bench with arch, running a single 300 hp outboard. It is a straightforward, well-judged boat, and the Quad Bench is the reason to choose it.

Bennington describes the Quad Bench as one of their most popular floorplans, and the appeal is practical rather than stylistic: it maximises storage, seating capacity, and lounge space all at once. Four lounge positions around the deck mean a genuine group is seated properly, while the sleek Fastback stern extends the entertainment space aft and houses the rear-facing speakers. Captain and co-captain recliners handle the helm.

Three hundred horsepower on a 26-foot M Series tritoon is a strong pairing. It planes quickly, cruises with plenty in reserve, and has the low-end thrust to pull tubes, skiers, and surfers without labouring. The arch overhead carries the tow point high, which gives a cleaner pull and keeps the rope away from the swim platform.

One specification to be aware of: the fuel tank is 25 gallons, 23.2 usable. That is modest for a boat with this much power, so on a heavy watersports day you will want to plan a stop at the gas dock rather than assuming you can run all afternoon. For cruising and cove use it is perfectly adequate. If range is a priority for how you boat, talk to us, because we have sister boats in the same layout specified with 48 and 54-gallon tanks and we would rather put you in the right one.

Why this is the right boat: if you want the most useful Bennington floorplan, an arch for watersports, and 300 horsepower, in a new boat with a full factory warranty and at a sensible price, the 26 MFBA is a very sound choice. It is the configuration that suits the largest number of families on the Lake of the Ozarks.

It is new and on the floor at Kelly's Port, 3545 Osage Beach Pkwy., Osage Beach. We have been family owned on the Lake since 1977, and our indoor showroom means you can compare this against the other layouts side by side in any weather. Storage, slips, fuel, and same-day service are all on the property. Call 573.348.3888 about stock #4903.
