Bennington 25 LTSBA 2021 vs Bennington 25 SL I/O 2011 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Bennington 25 LTSBA 2021 vs Bennington 25 SL I/O 2011 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 25 SL I/O 2011 tops out at 320 hp. Engine specs for the Bennington 25 LTSBA 2021 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 25 SL I/O 2011 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Bennington 25 LTSBA 2021 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Bennington 25 SL I/O 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Bennington 25 SL I/O 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 24,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Bennington 25 LTSBA 2021 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
