    To fit into our diving/tour situation, I want a double outboard, 10' x 25' fiberglass pontoon boat kit having a tunnel roof high enough for the boat to plane at 30-35 kts in 1-2' lagoon chop, and carry about 12 people.
    I need to know the draft at rest.
    Can you supply the URL of someone who makes an animal like this?

    Pontoon boats, fiberglass?

    Thanks for the suggestions, but, so far, I haven't found what I'm looking for. A deck boat is meant for a few people, and a pontoon boat with round pontoons is designed for a lake. If there any more suggestions they'll be well received.
    What I'm looking for is a dive boat for 10 divers and 2 crew, that planes at 30-35kts, with (fiberglass?) hulls that can be repaired easily in far away places like this western Pacific island. A kit would be easier to ship than a completed boat.
    If the boat I want is made in Australia or NZ, the shipping could be easier.
    Thanks for helping. Bob

    You obviously didn't look very hard at the links I provided. Go back and take a closer look - everything you asked for is there, as well as a couple of alternatives and a custom builder.
