I had never had an interest in pontoon boats. I always imagined them being slow, boring and totally lacking in performance. Well, while on vacation down in Destin Florida we rented one for 4 hours to cruise the harbor, crab island and the Choctawhatchee Bay. Let me tell you, it was an absolute BLAST! There is so much room to just relax and have a great time! Ours only had a 50hp motor on it, but I was really surprised at how quick and responsive it was!
A week after we returned from vacation we bought a Sea Ray 220 Bowrider. It's a nice boat, but we've haven't has as much fun on it as we did on the pontoon in Florida. Maybe it has something to do with being in Destin Florida on the pontoon, but I will say never knock something until you try it! I'm wondering if I should have bought a pontoon instead of the runabout!
Few pictures of our trip!
