Pontoon Boat & Deck Boat Forum

Thanks to our local Huntsville Coast Guard Auxiliary nice folks we appreciate you

Less than a mile from the landing, throttle up, out of gas.

Yep, and it was Free Happy it worked out for ya

The weed cutters have been very busy on our lakes this year. So, there is all kinds of stuff in the water. There is a channel from one lake to the other which is no wake. We had a few episodes where the buzzer went off, turn off the motor, restart and go on our way. We do have a brush we can reach back to the water inlets on the motor and clean off if need be.

In one week, we ended up pulling in two pontoon boats that had over heated and where drifting with the wind into the muck or onto the rocks. Didn't have to pull very far either, but, having run out of gas once ourselves and someone coming to our rescue, we know how much it is really appreciated.

Remember, it is IF something will happen, it is WHEN something will happen.
