Bennington vs. Silver Wave

#1 Post by DocPit » Wed Jan 29, 2020 7:50 pm

Does anyone have an opinion about the relative basic build quality of Silver Wave vs. Bennington? I've heard Bennington is the only manufacturer that puts the same basic quality into their entry-level boats as they do in their luxury models. Don't know if that's true.

DocPit.... I can't speak to the quality of Silver Wave. I don't know anything about them... but I do know a little about Bennington.. I have one and it is an entry level boat.. Ours is a 2010 Bennington 20 FSI and we absolutely love it. Bought it new and I've never had an issue with the boat itself.. Only issue I had was the trim motor on the Yamaha went out and had to get that fixed a few years back.. I've included a few pics below just to show you our's is not a big fancy rig... just a very good entry level pontoon that we use for fishing.. love it. By the way, my son has a 2008 Bennington. His is a 22 footer with a 115 on it. As far as I know he hasn't had any trouble with his boat either.

Hey. Really a very beautiful and powerful boat. I once dreamed of such, but in the area where I live, it is impossible to bring to life. It is very difficult to earn here. This is all because I have difficult working conditions. Maybe soon I will move to another place and buy the same boat as yours
