Sounds like you want a 21-24 foot triple pontoon with at least a 90 on the back, this should be nice and solid and get you around pretty quick! Welcome...

Welcome , if you get below 20 feet they get rough in the chop, so go 22 or bigger for 8

Hi Mike, my name is Matt and I live south of Houston in League City,TX just off of Galveston Bay. I have been a follower as a guest for a long time, and two years ago bought a 25' Voyager Fish and Cruise Deluxe Tritoon. I love it and decided to try and find some fellow pontooners here in my area and state. I just set up http://www.texaspontoon.com

I hope it is ok If I try and find a few friends to meet up with. I also hope it is ok that I have a link to your forum on my site because I want everyone to know about all of the information you have built up over the years.

Thanks for your work

Well hello everybody! First off, I am a newbie. My name is Luke and I am a field engineer for a well known tire company. Everybody calls me Leadfoot for obvious reasons. :biggrin2 I do proudly consider myself a redneck. An uppidy redneck, but never the less a redneck. I love fishing with my kids. My Wife and I love to watch the fireworks in Galveston Bay off of the Kemah Boardwalk and I love the sound of a V8:thumbsup. I am currently looking to buy my first pontoon, actually my first boat. I am not opposed to building one to get what I want. Any information or suggestions are greatly welcomed!

Hey tooners. Wife and I just picked up a 2009 Voyager Express Fish and Cruise with a 90 Honda Four stroke from Waterski Boats Dallas Inc. Took it to Amon G. Carter Lake (Bowie, Texas) all day Saturday and we love this boat. The boat is new, but sit on the lot for a couple of years and maybe had a few demos. Question, how can I keep my pontoons looking new? Is this possible? When we picked up the boat the toons were spotless, however, one day on the lake and there's already water glaze mark and light dirt ring.

Hey from West Texas, have been lurking for about 2 months and decided to join since we bought our first toon a couple of weeks ago. We have ben taking our son out on the bassboat since he was 6weeks old and now at 18months it just wasn't fun, picked up the toon on a Thursday and had 3 of the best days on the water we have had in a long time. Anyway look forward to getting to know some of you and will be asking alot of questions so be patient I'll try to learn fast.
