I?m thinking that while I?m pulling the engine anyhow I might as well mount the 115. 80 hp sounds big but this is a big pontoon. I?m not into speed but don?t want to be loaded down and maybe break 20 knots


Does that toon have the lifting strakes to get it up on plane?

.....

No sir, just plain tubes
Strakes don't start helping until you get a much bigger motor on
there. Typically a "go fast" pontoon will have the 3d log and at least
a 250 on it.

Agreed. I’ll go 115 and be done with it. If I want fast I’ll get fast. But I do want this to move ...some.


Mount both those old outboards, keep one tilted out of the water so that
if one engine fails, you have a backup and don't have to paddle yourself
back to the boat ramp.
