Pontoon Boat & Deck Boat Forum

Im lookin to get into a Pontoon boat, so far all I can seem to find are 15-20 year old boats going for 10K+ Is this a Calif thing or are the prices on older rigs as much elsewhere???

Depends on what they look like, but look all the around, you never find the cheap or good ones till after you buy one

But all you can do is look around and not get in a hurry, you should have bought during the colder weather, for the lowest prices

Welcome to the club.....you came to the right place to ask questions.

Yeah, its a calif. thing. I had a hard time beliving asking prices 3 years ago when I
was looking for a toon. Actually got a good deal on a used boat from a local dealer.
See below. old jim

This one just sold and is in a slip 4 slots down from mine.

Yea, I know its the wrong time of year, but ya start when ya start eh? Im in no rush, and Im more interested in a moss/grass over grown, missing the motor raccoons living in it kinda deal. not really happy with floorplans Ive seen cept for the castaway series, but I feel they need a bit more so lookin for tubes n frame I guess.

Welcome and hang in there you'll find one it time and it sounds like you're the kind of guy that will enjoy the rebuild.

Since Ive posted I have seen 2 already, funny how it works like that. I don't plan on buying now but after summer when the prices should drop. Untill then lots of Q's to come
