I find it hard to believe that you will become mad at yourself for buying that boat. She is beautiful and with the upgrades you made it should fill all your family needs for a number of years. Enjoy it and enjoy your family and the times you will spend together on your new boat.

Thanks for the positive comments. I'm sure the family is going to have a blast on the new boat. I'll be sure to post up a few pics

Yep, you are going to be happy you went with the extra length and the extra HP. Beautiful boat.

Enjoy!!!

So Scott, Now that you have had the toon out a few times, how is it performing? Top end with what prop? How many people on board? What steering system did it come with?

Asking because we are also looking at this model in a tritoon. Will have a 150 Evinrude ,max hp, but can't see it on the water for a couple of weeks yet, darn. If we can't drive, we no buy.

We want the extended back deck for your reasons, plus we pull skiers and wakeboarders with what we have now, so that deck off the back would be great, and for hauling the tubes on!!!

Looks real sweet. How does that 150 push her?

I had 6 adults and 4 kids out and was getting 38.3 mph on the gps. Running 5800 rpm with a 15x15 prop. The extended aft deck is worth every penny imo.

Damn, that moves - its just a Pontoon right? Not a Tritoon?

[ssmith]

Pontoon with strakes.

[dodger]

How is the turning, cornering, with the strakes on the outside, are they cumbersome and do the edges catch on tight turns?

What steering system do you have, Bay Star or Sea Star?

Those are some really good numbers you are getting there.
