Reliable power for comfortable cruising
The Bennington is equipped with a 115 HP engine that gives the tritoon enough thrust for easy day-long runs and towing swim platforms or light gear, making it a dependable choice for groups up to the vessel’s capacity.
USCG-approved safety gear on board
The boat is supplied with personal flotation devices in children and adult sizes, a throwable Type IV cushion, first aid kit, visual distress signals, mounted fire extinguishers, and sound-producing devices to meet standard on-water safety needs.
Flexible delivery and multi-day options
Choose regular (no-cost) delivery to Laishley Park Boat Ramp or opt for private home delivery and pickup for multi-day rentals within a six-mile radius; multi-day calendar pricing and arrangements are available through the operator.
What the day feels like
What the day feels like
A typical rental places a compact but comfortable tritoon in your hands for a measured block of time — 3, 4, or 8 hours — letting you tailor a morning of fishing, an afternoon of swimming and sun, or a full-day circuit. The package includes key safety equipment and basic amenities (bimini top, swim ladder, anchor), and the operator provides options for delivery and longer bookings so your day on the water begins and ends with straightforward logistics.

The vessel comes equipped with a first aid kit, visual distress signals (VDS), mounted fire extinguishers, sound-producing devices, and an anchor with line as part of the standard safety setup.
Standard amenities include a bimini top, swim ladder, fishfinder/depth finder, and a 115 HP engine to power your outing.
Optional rental insurance is offered at booking for added peace of mind; you’ll have the opportunity to purchase or decline coverage as part of the reservation process.
