How much was the sticker?

I don't see why it wouldn't work. Pontoons seem to have a lot of "dirty" water that can cause cavitation but that wouldn't affect surface drives as much.

Mines get twin turbos over the winter.

i would love to know what that boat would run, or is it just a show boat?

love following your build of your own pontoon and cant wait for you to drop the ls into it

My daughter and son-in-law are looking for a toon. It was at an on the water boat show, they ended up going to the dealer to get their show price, it was something like $80k. It was the nicest I've ever seen but I'll stick to my offshore.

that looks like it wants to tip over so bad, one too many people in the back and it seems like all the $$ he put into the engines would be gone
