Some friends are considering a pontoon boat. I already suggested a deck
boat, but they really want the extra space. They will trailer it and
have a Jeep Grand Cherokee as well as a Ford F350 DRW.

What brands are considered to be the best in terms of quality and
reliability? They are looking in the 20'-22' range with a modest
4-stroke OB motor - maybe 115-150hp. How important is a third pontoon
for a boat like that?

They will use it in the intracoastal, the St. John river, and inland
lakes. Fishing isn't a priority.

Thanks

Mrs. Wave and I looked into these last summer (ended up buying a deck
boat instead - long story short - my son has it now), but from what I
could see Bennington is a step above most of the other pontoons on the
market.

I also looked at an upper end Starcraft that was impressive, but from
my perspective, Bennington is the one you should be looking into.

I suggested Bennington only from the articles I've read about them.

Thanks
