    Lake Ontario

    Brian cc, I'm thinking 24 foot or bigger is our safest bet. I'm a merc fan over the omc, I hear omc parts hard to get but then here they are easy to get and much cheaper in price... I dunno my mercs have treated me well. Thanks for input.

I'd never go pontoon in lake ontario, fine for smaller bodies of water but not lake ontario for this guy. Appreciate all your feedback really do appreciate...

    Lake Ontario

    Hey Folks, What would you recommend for a boat in Lake Ontario? Length, Width, Motor, Etc.... any and all suggestions. Not looking to cruise in storms etc just an average days cruise and I know that Lake can change just like that so that's why seeing what people's opinions are.
