    Outboard motor upgrade?

    because it's true, THAT's why I said it. Where did I deny 4 stroke existence? Do you even own a pontoon boat? I do. And a 4 stroke weighs significantly more than a 2stroke and as some on here have stated there is a placard on the boat with a max total weight limit to not be exceeded and there...

    Outboard motor upgrade?

    Are you talking 2 stroke or 4 stroke . If the 40 is original and a 2 stroke then the placard limit of 120 is for a 2 stroke. Curious what diameter the toons are. Makes a difference and also why there is a placard with a limit. It's not just for transom, balance is part of it.... FWIW, I have a...

You don't know ,or have met, the upholsterer. Therefore, you are no judge of his character or his motivations. He has plenty of business and...

    Vinyl protectant/conditioner

    I wasn't kidding about windex. The upholsterer that re-did my pontoon shocked me with that answer. I was expecting otherwise. I wanted to also hear what product to use on my now new $5800 upholstery job, but it wasn't what I expected. I'm at a new marina this year on the chesapeake. I ran the...

    Beauty mark or compromised log?

    Pontoon logs are not designed to take pressure over 3-5 psi. So be for warned about blowing air in them. A simple way to check if a toon is leaking is by slowly opening the cap usually on top of each toon section. You should hear air either escaping or entering the toon. If you do, great, no...
