Now keep in mind I am a newbie here and learning.

Should i get a pontoon or deck boat. Went to look at pontoon boat I was thinking of buying. At that time this was a new and different way of attaching decks to cross members. And aluminum does offer peace of mind for the customer and has become a major marketing tool for those manufactures that offer it.

A novice and maybe stupid pontoon question. On the other hand a deck boat is sleeker and sporty. Fiberglass holds up well in saltwater whereas the pontoons of yesterday were not suited for this type of exposure.

Deck boats usually have coordinated upholstery bimini tops and nice carpet. A pontoon boat means only one thing. Boats with three pontoons are sometimes called tri-toons.

Clean the old deck with a steel brush or light sanding and youre ready to put down new carpet. Pontoon Boats are perfect for recreation activities such as barbecues parties and even just sitting back with friends whilst having a couple drinks. The best place to start is with what a pontoon boat actually is.

The decks are mounted on top of two or three metal tubes referred to as the pontoons. In a general sense pontoons are boats that have large flat decks. Aluminum is generally offered as an option to ease customer fears of woods potential to decay.

If you are looking for a budget boat then pontoon is a good option. But theres a slight catch. These holes need to be filled and sanded before new carpet can be laid.
