Pontoon Boat & Deck Boat Forum

Interesting!

If the economy doesn't start to tank by the time they start building them, I predict they will sell an approximate shitload of them.
18' 230hp Sport, 2200lb dry, 46mph top speed, starts at $32,499 MSRP with trailer.
21' 230hp Sport, 2500lb dry, 44mph top speed, starts at $35,500 MSRP with trailer.
21' 230hp Cruise, 2500lb dry, 44mph top speed, starts at $36,500 MSRP with trailer.

Was going to say I'm sure they won't be as "nice" as many pontoons then saw at the bottom of the page:
10 year hull warranty....1 year engine and material warranty. Hmmm......

I did not think it would of hit 44 mph, impressive. Wonder if thats with 1 person and 120lbs.

I agree, at that price they will sell a bunch.

Willy, you may be right but I won't bet against their claims! Look at the shape of the hulls and remember their background.

Plus, I might've loaded a cached page from them working on the site when I first looked because it initially said engine options to 300hp, not 230hp. Couldn't get it to come back up. They have a 300hp in some of their skis so it's probably coming.

The 300HP is same block as the 230HP, might just be an increase in boost pressure.

They use Rotax engines - the same as two of the amphibious planes use here on the lake. I think that their concept is a winner. As Steve said, let's see how bad the economy tanks.

The only downside for me is that I need a 14-16 person capacity. I have five daughters and twelve grandkids!

I also like the concept. The test is whether it can pull me up on a slalom ski, back foot in. My old 24ft pontoon with a Yamaha 115 4stroke could do it. Just didn't have the top speed. If I was in the market I'd show up with a suit and ski, lol, for the test drive.

20 years ago I had a Sea-Doo Sportster LE which was a 15.5' jetboat with 130hp Rotax. It pulled a slalom no problem. 100 fewer hp than the 21' Switch but dry weight was about 1000lbs less....kinda like me.

A ton of thought went into that design. Not at all for me but still pretty damn cool. I like more comfort.

It's certainly an interesting concept and priced right. I'm wondering how all those modular deck panels are going to hold together after a few months of pounding through some heavy wakes.

It looks like they have a whole line of accessories, too.

i like them alot...however you have to wait till next year to get one and getting the first year of anything is a big crapshoot. but if you could retune that engine up to 300hp....holy moley
