I am interested in finding a 3rd pontoon for the middle of my boat. It is a 70's or 80's model, I will get the exact date for that if someone can help me. But, what I am wanting is the 3rd pontoon to add to the middle of my boat and I need to find someone that has one and where I can get it and the price of this and shipping or other charges that will be included......can someone please help me find this or direct me in the right direction for someone that might can

Re: finding a 3rd pontoon

You may want to rethink this. A third pontoon in the middle of the 'toon is right where the motor sits. Go to Mercury's web site and look at the example of how water flows for a boat vs a pontoon. This is shown in the discussion of the Big Foot version of Merc motors. I think you will run into a power delivery/ventilation problem. Just a guess. Perhaps a shorter pontoon might work which would allow the water it displaced to converge before it reaches the prop.
