I have a 2006 Bentley 240 Cruise and I purchased a Ski tow bar made for Bentley and installed it myself. Easy to install, just set it in boat in front of the motor, center it, look under bottom to make sure you can drill though and make sure you have support bars under
the bolts and nuts under the bottom. [links]
If you do not have support bars under the bottom the
ski tow bar will rip off and pull the bolts and nuts though the plywood.

Please note, the Pontoon Ski Tow Bar is not to be used for pulling towables or tubing. [links]

The ski tow bar is designed to fit most pontoon boats with a small footprint to fit on a range of swim platform sizes. It's shipped in one convenient bow as three separate mandrel bent and welded sections. Two lengths of mounting hardware are provided for either the inner or outer bolting locations depending on your installation needs. All you need to do is bolt on the top cross bar and them mount it to your swim platform. Done! It's a very simple and quick project you can finish in the morning before taking the boat out. Compared to a custom fabricated version or one available from your boat's manufacturer, ours is much more affordable without compromising quality. The ski tow bar comes with our 5 year manufacturer warranty in case of defects. here
By popular demand from so many pontoon boat owners, we designed a superior ski tow bar that's a universal fit upgrade. This is an incredibly rugged, stylish and beautifully constructed bolt-on solution. For the majority of our customers, this is a simple DIY upgrade project that will take a few hours. Like Aerial's legendary wakeboard towers, our ski tow bar features the same 2.25" diameter 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminum tubing on the main frame and 1.5" on the side supports. The mounting base is made of a solid 1/2" thick plate. We also gave it our classic ultra polished mirror finish, impeccable welds and a beefy tow point.
Please note that although the ski tow is designed for most water sports only, it is not to be used to pull towable inflatables or water tubes. Inflatables like these should always only be connected to your boat by a transom mounted ski tow eye hook or ring. There are many types of inflatables which create a range of higher to much higher drag that can exceed that of a wake boarder, knee boarder, skier, etc. This is especially true when an inflatable and riders are whipped around like a slingshot. If there are multiple riders, the device is under inflated or the water is choppy, it can cause problems. Also, the elevated height of a ski tow bar combined with the excess stresses could lead to structural failure of either the ski tow, swim deck or the boat.
Please review the ski tow bar mounting requirements diagram below. We recommend measuring your swim deck platform to ensure you have enough room before ordering. Also, be sure to measure your engine's clearance requirements at full tilt and trim. here

Bentley pontoons aren’t known for their flashiness. With most of Bentley’s models you won’t get a boat that’s an immediate head turner. What they lack in ultra-luxury, they make up for in comfort and durability. When you buy a Bentley pontoon, you’re paying for something that’s functional and reliable. For this reason, many experienced boaters agree that Bentley pontoon boats are great starter boats.
The 243 Cruise is Bentley’s answer to the large-sized cruisers that make popular party boats. With a sticker price of roughly $40,000, the 243 Cruise is one of Bentley’s high-end models.
If you’re experienced with pontoon boats then you already know about Bentley boats and Bentley pontoon boat accessories. However, if you’re just stepping into the realm of pontooning, you might ask yourself the following question: are Bentley pontoon boats good? The answer is yes, depending on what you’re looking for.
