Looking to buy a pontoon boat. Don't know much about them. Any advice on the good or bad ones would be nice. Thanks

I don't know a lot about them other than make sure the motor is a good one (Honda, Yamaha, Merc, etc.) and the layout is exactly what you want. Don't be fooled into thinking you can change a bunch of stuff or add things later inexpensively, like a cover, because it will cost you.

One of our customers has one, we have to pull it out onto land in the winter and set it back in the lake during summer. They are heavy as hell! We pull them in with winches and ropes.

The motors went a few times on it though and they do cost a pretty penny. Make sure its a good one and you know what you want.
