need to find out how to get water out of pontoons???? there looks like to be a fitting in the middle of the top of each pontoon , is there a certain fitting that has to be used to put air back in or is it sometype of pressurized gas. have two seams that cracked and need repair. any suggestions

Re: 2000 21ft suntracker

There is no pressurized gas-just air. Look toward the back of the pontoons down low. There should be a drain plug also.<br /><br />Are you sure there is water in them?<br /><br />If there is no drain, you may have to create one. Something best left to a welding shop.

If I were to want to create a drain in the pontoon without using a weld shop, can anyone give me ideas on how to do this?

Just drill a hole down as low as possible on the BACK of the pontoon-NOT on the bottom. You can probably seal the hole well enough with a self tapping pipe plug and som 3M 5200 sealant.<br /><br />This is an awfully new boat to have water in the toons!

Re: 2000 21ft suntracker

some welding work was done on the back and excessive heat altered the metal properties thus new cracks. is there a special fitting that has to be ussed for the air pressure port?
