I bet when he closes his eyes at night the only thing he sees is an e-mail with:

That thing is pretty cool! Not sure I've seen one that long that wasn't a party hut. Wonder what the passenger limit is on the placard?? Very nice!

I bet it's not as high as you would think. My 30'er twin motor was only 14. The USCG rating takes into account the total weight so these big heavy tiwns take a hit in that department.

Not that I would ever want 14 people on my boat at once anyway. Unless of course it was 13 chicks and THIS GUY :rofl

Good points. Especially the 13:1 ratio. Where do I sign up for that adventure? :nana

I'm betting a 13:1 ratio would be a VERY unlucky thing in my case.

My wife the Admiral wouldn't approve.

And she knows where the guns, the knives and ALL the money is.

13:1 would have to be one heckuva a good time as the price would be I'd wake up hurting, dead and dead broke.

I saw him in the water by Toad Cove a few years ago. Its not that fast, maybe runs 50? It did look like it handled the waves real good, its the 10 foot wide model. It must weigh in at 4800 lbs w/ motors. Brand new that listed out for 106k. Hell, mine listed out at 68k. The original owner gave 64,500 for it in 2009, no trailer! I paid 38 for it 3 years later, with a brand new trailer. Pontoon prices are crazy! You can't giveaway fiberglass boats these days! Things have really changed in the last 10 years...

There is one like that with twin zuki 300's on the back, we tried to catch up with the glastron but at 53mph gps hes was pulling away from us and we were pinned. Actually a few twin engine Premiers running around on Lake Vermilion, most are only twin 150-200's though.
