Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Bennington 21 SXF 2022 vs Bennington 24 SLX3 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Bennington 21 SXF 2022 vs Bennington 24 SLX3 2013 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The Bennington 24 SLX3 2013 tops out at 150 hp. Engine specs for the Bennington 21 SXF 2022 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Bennington 24 SLX3 2013 is rated for 25 passengers, while the Bennington 21 SXF 2022 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Bennington 24 SLX3 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Bennington 24 SLX3 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 25 passengers and at 23,8 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Bennington 21 SXF 2022 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
