I'm a bit jealous of how a pontoon boat can just open the front door and nose up to a dock to pick up and drop people off😂. I don't think there's a better family lake boat design for a swim platform camping platform and fishing. I wouldn't buy one for sport as long as it can get me back to the dock at a decent speed so I can get out of a approaching storm I'd be happy.
I'm looking into a pontoon but ended up getting a small one due to I have a 4 door jeep and that is all it can pull. Please due a show on tow vehicles needed to pull your boat.
I live in Southwest Florida where the water is very, very shallow. A stern drive where the prop is deeper in the water is a disadvantage over an outboard here even when the water is rough because there are a lot of great places to go where you’ll hit the bottom with a stern drive.
I just recently purchased a new Tritoon, and the Best Captain On the Water Videos were fantastic. It’s well worth the $47. FYI
Currently on my third toon, first one was a fixer upper to get the covered slip. Second was an insurance salvage unit that needed a few repairs. Just retired and bought a two year old 22 ft tri-toon with a 150 hp engine. My slip rental is $2,500 annually and winter storage is $900, Break out another thousand.
Awesome video! Thanks so much! We bought a 23-24 foot pontoon, and beat!! But gonna add bits and pieces and upgrade her. You’ve just given me some great info which has along with our initial choice, cause looks as though and quite by accident I might add, have bought a pretty decent older toon!thanks for the video!!
I’m only renting but this is immensely helpful food for thought. Also helps to know when it is worth renting a more expensive boat (chop, heavy passengers etc)
Great Video with superb information. Thanks
There are many places you can rent pontoon boats from. Rent one a few times before buying you will make a better purchase
Really excellent advice
Glad it was helpful!
Lots of good information for prospective boat owners!
Glad you think so!
Very helpful!
Thanks great info still👍 what do you think of a 2005 Bennington Yamaha 115
Just wanna say thanks for putting out suck a informative video. We're moving to Lake Norman and I'll be purchasing a pontoon very soon.
Now I have to learn to drive it!
lake wylie is where its at lol i like both lakes ive been thinkin bout either a pontoon or a jetski i cant really decide
@@nocturnalmayhem0 Naw, the middle is the fiddle... Mountain Island for the WIN!!! LOL
Very good video ... NEEDED ADVISE ... I am planning to buy a mid-level pontoon . My vision at the moment is to keep it on marine and once or twice a season go to some other lake for a couple of days, like people do with a boat. Plus, kids can learn how to ski. In Canada, the boating season is short.
I'm thinking of a 20ft tritoon with a 150hp engine, because it will be more difficult to drive with pontoon bigger size.
I guess this design gives more stability in rougher and calm water.
Is it practical to drive pontoon to different location? Is this a reasonable modification or it is overbuild ? Any particular brand you can recommend ?
👀I have Yamaha 150 3 15" propeller I like to change to 4Propeller what's is the better pitch 😊
In general, when does it make sense to get "the bigger engine" option? For example, does the difference between a 200hp Yamaha and a 250hp Yamaha justify the added cost? When does spending the extra money on a bigger engine make sense? Thanks!
Me personally, what ever the MAX HP stated on the US Coast Guard plate is, is the HP I'm going with.
What do you think about the tow loop that goes around the back of the outboard?
Yes the turbo swing. I think when I get a new pontoon, I will be adding one. Not just to pull tubes but also for engine protection when backing into a slip or somewhere that may damage the engine.
question if my lifting strakes are open on a saltwater edition pontoon. should i weld it close or is it to late? its a 2016 seabreeze 230 tritoon
@@BoatBuyersSecretWeapon I am purchasing it this weekend we are waiting for owner paperwork I purchase from a marina that the boat was stored at the motor only has 120 hours so it wasn't used alot according to the marina now I am hesitant after watching your videos lol just wanted to make sure my 38k boat will last
I picked up an old pontoon, (20') converted to a tritoon, with a 250 horse 2 stroke. What should I expect for speed? 28:26
That’s a short boat for a 250. But depends on size of tubes and weight of boat…. I’d guess 40+ maybe better
Too much emphasis being put on a continuous M-rail vs intermittent brackets on top of the pontoons.
Can you share you're thinking on this?
@@BoatBuyersSecretWeapon yes I'd be happy to. I'll email you. Cheers.
