Best Pontoon Boat Accessories

Pontoons are almost limitless in what they can do on the water. A general cruising boat, fishing boat or watersports boat, pontoons can tackle just about anything on the water. However, they can truly become personalized for the activities you want, with the help of some specialized models and accessories. 

Pontoon Fishing Rod Holders

Bennington offers a variety of factory-ready fishing pontoon models that feature built-in fishing rod holders, models that don’t include built-in options can also have rod holders installed to fit owners’ needs with a selection of fishing accessories available.

Pontoon Livewell for Fishing

Similarly, Bennington fishing models are outfitted with livewells built-in. However, that doesn’t’ mean if you don’t have a fishing-specific model you’re out of luck. Bennington has accessories available to outfit a non-fishing specific model to get it ready for a day chasing a big catch.

Pontoon Tow Bar for Watersports

If watersports like wakeboarding and tubing are more your speed, then a tow bar is the accessory for you. Easy-to-use tow bars are included on many of Bennington’s sport pontoon models and a necessary component to safe watersports operation.

Floating Inflatable Mat to Relax & Enjoy the Water

A floating inflatable mat is the perfect extension to your pontoon when at the sandbar or rafted up with fellow boaters. Bennington’s Reef Mat from Mission offers 85 square feet to relax and enjoy your time on the water.

Built-in or Moveable Pontoon Cup Holders

While Bennington pontoons offer a multitude of built-in cup holders in a variety of models, the benefit of being able to set your drink down without worry isn’t just limited to built-in solutions. Whether it’s a cold soda or a hot coffee, cruising on your pontoon with a drink in hand is one of life’s simple joys. Portable armrests with cupholders are the perfect way to enhance your entertainment pontoon. Just move the cup holders to wherever you’d like to lounge. 

Pontoon Boat Flag & Mount to Show Your Pride

One of the simplest ways to add a personal touch to your pontoon is to show off what you care about with a pontoon boat flag and mount. A pontoon boat flag and mount will help your boat stand out from the rest while representing what you care about. Show off your Bennington pride with our flag, wave an American flag, or represent your alma mater or favorite sports team. 

Pontoon Boat Grill to Cook on the Water

Pontoon boat food is a must. While sandwiches and fruit from the cooler always hit the spot, there’s nothing like a freshly grilled hot dog or burger on a summer day. With a pontoon boat grill, being a grill master doesn’t have to be exclusively for land. You’ll be sure to make new friends on the water while you grill up your favorites. Just remember to consider the type of grill, its size, and how you’ll mount it while choosing a pontoon boat grill. 

While some accessories can be added yourself following the purchase of your new pontoon, others will need to be considered during the buying process, as they are either installed at the factory during the build or by your dealer before delivery.   

Pontoon Boat Lights for Fun Ambient Lighting

A variety of Bennington models incorporate built-in LED light accents throughout the vessel, allowing owners to add a whole new level of experience to boating. Customizable color-changing ambient lighting can be manipulated to fit any mood on the water.

Pontoon Boat Bar for Entertaining

Pontoon boats are the perfect place for kicking back and relaxing. And a variety of layouts will help you maximize the relaxation and entertainment potential. For example, with a pontoon boat bar, you can quickly mix up cocktails or mocktails for your friends and family. Adding a pontoon boat bar is a great way to make your days on the water even more luxurious.  

Pontoon Boat Speakers for Music on the Water

Music is a must-have to set the tone for a day or evening on the water. The level of your onboard music experience begins with the selection of your Bennington model. From the standard “deck and four (speakers)” to fully-tuned concert experience from Rockford Fosgate offered in some Bennington models, audio needs and the factory-installed options are definitely something to consider when talking accessories. 

Pontoon Boat Bathroom for Emergencies

Having a pontoon boat bathroom is another option for more convenience and comfort. It’s a practical accessory that you’ll be happy to have during long days on the water.

Pontoon Boat Changing Room for Privacy

Having a changing station on your pontoon can be convenient for everyone aboard. If you plan to never get in the water, you can bring a swimsuit just in case and easily change on your boat by using a pop-up changing station. Or you can use the changing room to change out of wet swimming gear to cruise back to the dock or off to an onshore adventure in clean, dry clothes.

Pontoon Slide on Double Decker Boats

Bennington’s double-decker pontoon boats offer a whole new experience on the water with compatible accessories. Double-decker models provide a space for everyone to relax and enjoy the water. The addition of the top deck also brings the ability to add a slide for additional fun on the water.
