[QUOTE="BloodStone, post: 188056, member: 826"] [b]Personally I think that 1); they're ugly-a fancied up, glorified barge imo. 2) The maneuverability on the water must suck majorly. Not to mention how they are in really rough water? And 3), continually trailing those hulks (16'-24') can't be a cake walk. I Can't even imagine the kind of horsepower power it would take to yank one of those suckers up & out of the ramp successfully (16'-24'). 4) Pushing them through the water must be substantial since there really is no bow to speak of. And 5); If pontoons were really [i]"all that & a bag of chips"[/i], then why aren't more of them used in tournaments (not just talking bass)? I suppose if you have a big family these glorified rafts may be the way to go but, you & a buddy or two..no way! Just my 2 cents.. [/b] [/QUOTE]
