Once in a while a boat changes the playing field. Take Bennington’s 24 R Bowrider Swingback. With a floor plan boasting a recessed bowrider design called the Step-Down U-Lounge, it makes the mark. It doesn’t feel like a typical pontoon, it feels more luxurious and safer. The pilot and copilot can easily see over the heads of crew seated forward. Better command, confidence and control results. The forward perimeter fences feature lowered profile rails with see-through upper sections. Seems simple, again, but it allows the driver and passengers to see through what is normally blocked; this makes for easier docking and also makes it nicer for those aboard to interact with those on the beach or sandbar. With that drop-center floor, one might wonder how they did that. The answer is in the center V-hull section, called the Integrated V-Hull Performance Package. This center pod is a custom-designed V-toon that adds lift, along with turning ability and stability, while also giving designers room to drop the foredeck. Ingenious all the way ’round.
