Good day to all
I am considering the idea of buying a 21' pontoon boat kit (8'x20' deck)which is a medium density polyethylene that comes 3' sections ( execpt for the front/rear sections 42").
I fully understand that these types of boats do have there issuse and I am prepaired to live with them.
My intentions is to build a poormans house/fishing weekend getaway boat. The house part would just be a tent with a propane barbeque that has a side burner.
Speed is not a issue and it will not be pulling any tubes unless it on a jig, so it will be running something in the way of a 40hp Bigfoot or the high torque Yamaha.
Those are my piticulars.
I seek ideas on what has worked and what has not or things to consider when it comes to building my boat on a very limited budget. I am the type of person that can live comfortable with things being more funtional than show, I have been seen driving a moped and I love the big bottom girls.
