I’d say so. The waterline does show the front tipped yo for the weight being in the back. It will play a bit. I’m not really sure how many hp it’d take to make this thing plane. It’s sure nothing like a v-hull


Pontoons don't really plane. There is a definite step they get up on
but it is not really planing. They tend to hit a wall after they get
up on the step and a whole lot more power only returns modest gains in
speed.
