Hi,
I'm looking at a pontoon boat for sale and was wondering how common is a stainless pontoon boat? I'm about 99% sure the logs and rails are stainless. I went to see the boat and everything important looks to be in good shape (pontoons, floor, carpet, rails). Some cosmetic work will be needed, as far as furniture and such. The motor he has is a 9.9 merc, how fast do you think it'll move? The boat is 22ft from the tips of the logs. Will the heavier stainless be an issue? I boat on a river with about 1.5 mph current on average. I did notice that instead of some type of plug, someone has drilled holes on the tops of the logs and installed automotive wheel valve-stems. does anyone see this being a problem? Also, is $1650 inline with the condition and motor size? I dont know if the motor runs, i'm going to look at the motor tomorrow after he gets it out of storage. I'm also waiting on looking at the title for the year/brand/weight capacity/hp limit. I could not find a tag anywhere on the boat. Where might it be, and will this be an issue?
heres a link to the ad..thanks for any opinions and/or warnings/advice
