Interesting Premier Tri-Kat

#1 Post by mippel » Wed Jul 03, 2013 11:08 am

Found this looking around at local dealer. This is an interesting looking boat.

Description:
This is a custom one off protoype built by Premier pontoons. The boat has a full enclosure canvas that is visable in the pictures. The entire canopy can be taken off as well. There is also a walk on upper deck with a slide. On the boat there is a cabin that includes a small fridge, stove, and bathroom. FOB Wyoming MN Special permit required for hauling
Thanks, Mike

Surprised that isn't up at the owners "cabin" on Vermilion. The president of Premier has a ~30x10 tritoon with twin Suzuki 300's on the back, and he is seen fairly often powering his way from one end to the other at 50+ mph.

The Premier looks so expensive that the price might limit sales. It's actually more of a tri hull boat than a pontoon. But it's plenty nice.

Too bad that there are relatively few affordable pontoon houseboats on the retail market. The big barge style aluminum houseboats are often in the 75'-100' class, and they're just too expensive to purchase.

A lake house is actually a better value and cheaper in the long run.
