Makes sense but you can buy new 50mph pontoon boats and the fastest modified pontoons are over 100 mph so maybe it’s getting blurred some.
OK, not that big a deal I guess. Interesting about the “sealed” buoyancy compartments. That’s something I would definitely associate with a...
I would venture a guess that all pontoons are technically catamarans (or trimarans) but that doesn’t mean all catamarans are pontoons. So what’s...
I know exactly how I will use the boat. Exactly like I use our current boat. I think I will talk with some pontoon manufacturers to get a firm...
Now I'm starting to think I might be better off with new pontoons. No corrosion issues and I could order exactly what I want. I would probably go...
Can a surveyor check for corrosion? This has been fresh water all its life and appears to have about a bazzilion coats of paint on it. My though...
With our Tiara, we are the mothership for our kids and friends to raft their ski boats too. Already, by the time we get back to the Marina 9-9:30...
[ATTACH] Not the best pics but hopefully enough until I can get back to the boat. [ATTACH]
My current boat, a 1990 Tiara 3600 Open, cruises comfortably at about 15 knots. This puts our favorite anchorages less than an hour from our...
I just looked at a new 24' Suntracker online and it weighs 2200 with a 115 hp outboard so maybe my guesstimate is not far off. The new 24 is half...
That's what I'm thinking. Although I do see that the houseboat (Masterfab) weighed 18,000 lbs complete. So the "house" walks and roof with all of...
Where the boat is now, there isn't a way to weigh it. I'm guesstimating on the following.... I looked at aluminum weights on line and came up...
I'm looking at a set of 50' aluminum pontoons and 16' wide platform that at one time was the base for a houseboat. The pontoons are rectangular in...
