2026 Godfrey Pontoon Boats Monaco 235 C

Godfrey Monaco 235 C: The Sociable Mid-Size Cruise Pontoon

1. General Information

The Godfrey Monaco 235 C sits at the heart of the Cruise line-up in Godfrey's redesigned Monaco series, the family pontoon range named a 2026 Boating Industry Top Product. Measuring 7.29 m overall with a 2.59 m beam, it welcomes up to 12 passengers and accepts outboards of up to 300 hp, striking an appealing balance between generous deck space and easy handling. The Cruise layout is designed for relaxed, sociable days: an aft L-shaped lounge gathers friends around a table, and a spacious stern swim platform turns every anchorage into a swimming spot. As an open deck boat with no cabins or galley, every metre is devoted to comfortable seating, versatile storage and open-air living, making the 235 C a superb choice for lake cruising, picnics, sunset outings and light watersports with the whole family, pets included.

2. Construction and Design

The Monaco 235 C rides on 25-inch outer pontoon tubes with marine-grade decking and Godfrey's exclusive Slipstream motorpan. Four tube packages let buyers match the boat to their waters and engine choice: a 25- or 27-inch two-tube set-up, a 27-inch Sport Tube with centre-tube lifting strakes, a 27-inch iMPACT triple tube, or a 29-inch iMPACT+ triple tube with oversized 6-inch lifting strakes, integrated underdeck skin and a larger fuel tank for bigger water. The extra deck length over the 215 C gives more room around the lounge and table, while integrated storage in the seat bases, floor and chaise keeps the deck tidy. Plush upholstery and a modern elevated helm complete a contemporary, well-finished package.

3. Key Features

Elevated helm: Comes standard with a multifunction display, GPS gauges, a cooled cupholder and a sleek glass windscreen for confident, comfortable control.

Social Cruise layout: An L-shaped aft lounge and table form the boat's social hub, backed by a spacious stern swim platform.

Smart navigation lighting: Auto-sensing navigation and anchor lights simplify evening cruising and time at anchor.

Wireless charging: Built-in charging pads keep phones powered without cables cluttering the deck.

Tube package choice: From the standard two-tube to the 29-inch iMPACT+ triple tube, the 235 C can be specified for calm lakes or more demanding water.

4. Summary

The Monaco 235 C is aimed at families and groups of friends who regularly host guests on the water and want more space than an entry-level pontoon, without stepping up to a large, complex boat. It fulfils the need for a comfortable, social and well-equipped day boat that is still straightforward to drive and dock. Options such as RGB lighting, heated and cooled cupholders, a ski tow bar, the Lillipad ladder, in-floor storage, a Seaview bow gate and the standard Click & Cruise accessory rails let owners shape it around their lifestyle. For buyers wanting a versatile all-rounder with standout value, the Godfrey Monaco 235 C is the sweet spot of the Monaco Cruise range.
