Bennington 24 RTFB 2022 vs Bennington 2577 RFS 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Bennington 24 RTFB 2022 vs Bennington 2577 RFS 2007 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 2577 RFS 2007 tops out at 2 hp. Engine specs for the Bennington 24 RTFB 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 RTFB 2022 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Bennington 2577 RFS 2007 caps at 2. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Bennington 24 RTFB 2022 could be the deciding factor.
The Bennington 2577 RFS 2007 is an inflatable design — lighter, easier to store, and quicker to launch from a beach or dock without a slipway. The Bennington 24 RTFB 2022 is a rigid hull, which typically offers a more confident ride in chop and easier maintenance over the long term.
