It will come down to which toon sways you as well as your feeling about the dealership (Service after sale).

To answer question on performance (PTX vs ESP) between the two boats you asked about, I found handling on both comparable. My personal preference was the Benne 25Q's lines compared to the others but again just personal preference. That was a hard decision because Premeir is on my Lake (Wsquam) and service could be easier. Good luck and tell us what you decide.
Sorry for not being clear, I've given a ptx a drive, but not a Bennington or manitou. Out of curiosity why is your preference the Bennington. The Bennington was better seating and quality hands down, and also i thought premier seemed less comfortable than manitou
