We talk a lot about the cons or problems of boats because we want you to be aware of the drawbacks of each type of boat. What about the benefits though? There are a number of reasons that pontoon boat usage has grown more dramatically in the last 5-10 years than almost any other boat segment. In this video we will cover:

What is your opinion of pontoon boats?

@terrywinningham5405 9 ай бұрын

I have owned a pontoon boat for over 20 years and when I retired in 2020 I purchased a new tritoon, grandkids love it.

This is a VERY informative video. I am about to take a ride on a friend's pontoon and I have some ambulatory issues. I am confident now, that I will be able to get on and off easily. At 62, I have no issue being called "an old man."

Because a pontoon boat is like a floating living room……without a fireplace 😁

It's by far the most versatile style boat on the market.

Do you do any tubing with that setup? We are looking for something 24 or under and looking for opinions on engine size. Thanks

I have a 24 ft suntracker with mercury 115 hp. The water was choppy and the boat other boats went by adding to the waves. Should I have slowed down or continued driving at the 3 rpm’s.?

Wow great video. Retiring from Colorado to Holister Missouri on table Rock. We love to camp alot. Selling RV to get a Pontoon boat. One problem is can't find a seating system that can convert to a bed for camping on a Pontoon boat. Don't want a huge house boat just get a bed. What boat brand could I find with seating to convert to a bed system. Our RV had jack knife system that easily convert to a queen bed. Any ideas.

@jaxrican1 10 ай бұрын

Get a Sea-Doo Switch. We have our seats set as a bed. You can configure seating however you please. We got the camper enclosure and have spent the night out on the water (with a mosquito zapper on board). Take a look at them, it may work for you too.

I’m new to boats but I want something to fish fresh water with but my wife wants something that can also go into the bay is that possible?

@grindmode6384 2 жыл бұрын

I have a question can you put the pontoon in saltwater ? For example around the bay were its more calm

@boatinglessons 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, we do see that. The aluminum does corrode very quickly, so we would recommend it be removed after use and washed off with fresh water (either on a lift or trailer

I would suggest a model that has a pop-up changing room and then you can put like an RV/porta-potty toilet in there

OK but have yall seen the wooden pontoon boat that supposedly blows other pontoons out of the water? Heavier yet faster with less horse power, allows for thrilling watersports with the amount of power that even the most popular pontoon boats can only offer pleasure cruising oh and they claim it can be passed down for generations! Crazy right? Yeah maybe but then I saw this video .... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ftpgmZaEx7Hcgmw.html

Would having a glass of wine on your pontoon boat while tied to your dock be considered drinking and boating by the 👮 popo?

@ie6370 Жыл бұрын
