The sponsons actually trap air like a cat and help cushion the ride in chop. They are really popular out west, don't see many here in the midwest.

I recognize some those area pics. :D
Your boat must be a blast in those back waters. Good for you !

Jason, talk to your customer Robb Maltempo. He is a customer of yours with the 24ft HTM from CT, He has a fast deck boat too and could send you in the right direction!

The Pontoon or did he build another new project? Rob is the man!

It looks like they have a 26 single engine in the works if the budget allows for a new boat.

I met a guy this past weekend rafted up on Lake Champlain near Plattsburgh. Went from a 38 Fountain to a 24 Larson TTT tritoon deckboat with a single 400 Verado. The boat was amazingly plush and the most efficient use of 25' I've ever seen. The tubes were unlike anything I've ever seen. They were not round tubes but square. The boat runs over 50 and was smoking other runaboats and deckboats. The boat was rigged and sold by Aquamania in Alexandria Bay, NY. That is the home of the world champion turbine powered cat.

Playcraft seems to be the leader in extreme pontoons.

Advantage x-flights are good and they build a ton of them so there's several out there for sale. Also check out Howard, Eliminator Fun Deck, Hallett 285, and conquest. A couple out there with bigger power already, but depends on his budget.

He doesn't want a pontoon, that much I know. The X-Flight is really interesting. All it needs is a Whipple :)
