Hi Folks,
I am getting ready to buy a pontoon boat. I am curious about the top speed and trade off's between a Sweetwater 24' with a 135 IO vs an outboard.
So how fast would a 24' two pontoon go with a 135io?
How much difference does a third pontoon make?
How big an engine do you need to pull someone on skis? Or a boogie board?
Any help is appreciated. I am afraid that I won't get a straight answer from local dealers who are dying to unload stock that's been on hand for 9 months...
Any other suggestions are welcome. This is my first pontoon boat, and I plan on keeping it for several years.
Thanks,
Allen
