A tritoon is a triple-hull pontoon boat.

Tritoon advantages. This is because the combination of the three air tubes and the faster engine allows you to cut through the choppy water more efficiently with less bouncing around and a much smoother and more pleasant ride. Not only will you have a smoother ride but the third toon will also give you greater engine capacity. The Tritoon is larger and has a significantly more powerful engine.

In choppier deeper and bigger waters a tritoon would be beneficial especially if doing watersports or deep sea fishing in large bodies of water. That extra stability will really come in handy here. Instead of having two large aluminum tubes beneath the deck a tritoon has a third tube in the center that distributes weight even more evenly over the water.

As mentioned tritoon boats have a speed advantage over pontoons. A tritoon may be a good option for the ocean or anywhere the waters are less calm. This is because due to having a more powerful motor youll experience increased speeds compared to a pontoon.

Ride Quality This is probably the biggest advantage and most notable difference when upgrading to a tri-toon. All tritoon boats are equipped with life preservers throw-able cushion anchor and rope fire extinguisher and our emergency phone number. As mentioned previously a tritoon may be a good choice for those who enjoy participating in watersports.

The skys the limit when shopping for a high horsepower engine. A tritoon may be a good option for the ocean or anywhere the waters are less calm. The ride quality of a regular 2-tube boat is acceptable in calm water.

This added stability and structure also means the boat can handle more horsepower. I just sold my 2011 Tritoon 2250GCW. A pontoon with triple tubes will have a higher horsepower rating than a model with two tubes and thus is capable of higher speed and is better suited for use as a watersport tow boat.
