Pontoon question.....

[314joey]

I think the "real" question is will that pole in the front hold a 110lb hottie...................lmao


Yes, I think it's big enough to handle a 250hp, but I like my first question.

Thinking of swapping it out for a brass one that spins!

I would guess that the real question would be,,, is the transom engineered for the for a 250-300 hp. engine?

Qua Pati ...............wonder what the meaning is to the previous owner
.
Even with a 250 on it I doubt it'd get any more than 30-35mph

Really??? I was texting the guy and he said it goes 35 now with the 115hp now. Figured that was going down river with a tail wind lol but was hoping to see around 40 or so with a 250....

lol. That things a sled. He's using a very poor calibrated water pick up. The #1 killer of speed on boats is a GPS speedo.

Nice boat. I have logged around 2500 hours on a similar boat. I highly recommend them for boaters:
1. Spend a ton of days on the water (racking the wear, tear, an even enjoying your performance boat not practical.)
2. Allows you to actually get other purpose boats that you exactly want.
3. If you have small kids or are entertaining - you will be able to relax knowing they could not even light the thing on fire and effect your program
4. You will always be able to sell for what you have into it.

On to the motor:
1. In my case I have a 140 Tohatsu (Nissan) it has been bullet proof
2. Top speed maybe low 30 - depending on load. Speed should not be your concern - keeping the surface temperature of the pole below atomic hot would be priority 1.
3. I would repower to a new gen 4 stroke for the fuel efficiency
4. Unless you do the work and rig yourself you will be hard pressed to find someone who will mount something that big on a transom not rated for weight / HP. As others have said it is not like you will be doing 50 + in this thing ever

Enjoy!!!

Lol! BINGO! Just like every jet boat goes 80mph when they are for sale. Lol. The gps kills egos.

a pontoon is not about speed unless you are HB and have to get there fast, it is about how many ladies you can get on there to rock that new brass pole....................
