    Inboard Project

    Been a long time since I've been back here excited to hear from you guys. I built my current pontoon and everything was a blast and in the past 5 years wow is there a lot of different companies offering new products. Which makes me want to really start planning my next boat, an inboard pontoon...

    Let's go Fast

    Hey everyone. Watching Brad Rowland go 107 mph on his pontoon i'm sitting here thinking, why not me? I might not want to go that fast but i'm wanting to build something similar. I'm wanting to put twin 150's behind each log in the back and then leave the transom open for fuel. Wondering if...

    Best Pontoon Tube

    I'm at the point where I have to decide on what kind of tube to get for my boat. I have a 24' with a 90 hp on the back and the number of passengers will vary quite a bit of course. I know I want to get a tube but i'm not sure what kind. I always see the normal lay down tubes but i'd love to...

    Mariner Propeller Shaft

    Hi everyone. I have a 1989 Mariner 90hp outboard that i'm going to be putting on my pontoon this week. I notice on it though that it does not have anywhere on the Propeller shaft where I can slide a cotter pin through. So with this i'm guessing they just require you to slide your prop down...

    Cleat Locations

    Hi everyone, we've got the railings installed and furniture and I started to think where am I going to put a rope tie off in the rear section of the boat. The railings are covering most of the wood that I can put a cleat on and I'm not a huge fan of putting a tie rope on the actual railings...

    Pontoon Tarp

    So a lot of these tarps that i've seen claim to be able to trailer with them on. Well I bought one not too long ago and there is no possible way it can be a trailorable tarp. I almost think you would have to custom fit your boat tarp if you ever want to be able to have it on the road. The...

    1988 Johnson 25 hp

    Hi everyone, I just recently bought a 1988 Johnson tiller outboard and excited to get her out on the water. Wondering if anyone out there has this same motor and seeing if there's anything common that goes wrong with these. Also wondering if anyone has the PDF of the owners manual. Thanks...

    1984 Mariner starter button

    Hi everyone, just wanted to ask a quick question. My mariner currently needs a new starter button. You hit the starter and it keeps the starter fan wheel trying to turn the main flywheel over after you release the button. The serial number on it is 68C552696 and its one that was made in...

    Bassmaster classic 2013

    I'm not sure how everyone else feels but I can't believe the classic isn't airing till a week after the event. Been watching the lowrance war room but still I can't believe they wouldn't air this big of an event.

    Personal Flotation Devices

    Reading the rulebook for Illinois, and i'm sure it's the same for almost every state is that you have to have the same amount of PFD's as people on the boat at all times. Now with some of these pontoons being able to hold 15 people at once....where the heck do you put all these PFD's????? I...

    Time ?

    So today starts the first day of building the pontoon where were sliding in the boards and installing the floor. I've got every family member and friend asking me when this pontoon is going to get done and I guess my question for all of you is how long "time span" did it take you to get your...

    Trailering question

    I pulled my boat logs and the trailer to the shop today and I noticed that once the rails go up along with everything I wont have any visible sight behind me. We sometimes use those backup camera's you can install on our Grain Carts on the farm and thought maybe someone has done that so they...

    HP Rating Sticker

    So I just realized that my pontoon that I have now doesn't have the manufacture sticker that says the hp rating on it anymore. I know it was a 100 hp but is this a problem I may face when getting the boat insured? Or do I need to call Lowe and order a new sticker for my new rails? Thanks!
