Ahhh...the right-wing ejaculates at play. At least you have the proper
"wide-stance" boat for someone of your persuasion, eh? Whatever amount
of oil I poured in from the oil jug was correct, since the dipstick
reads full, and I didn't overfill.

Is he a pontooner too? ****in' hilarious.

Bubbles on the bottom. That's not a boat, it's a raft.

Try catamaran. They ones I have seen plane nicely without monster
motors. You can pull water skiers and everything. Ideal cocktail
cruiser.,and for that, a pontoon boat can carry enough battery for
electric drive.

How much to these rafts cost?

Pontoon boats are for people who would rather be using a boat than
waxing it..

There is a company I am in touch with that will sell you a basic
pontoon boat with .1" thick aluminum hulls for about $5000

(no furniture)

There isn't a single body of water that I spend time on that'd be
safe to navigate on a pontoon "boat." I'd trust my 11' Whaler before
I'd cross open water on a pontoon.

We have to use real boats in the NW, unless it's a lake. Even the
lakes here can have big water and they're pretty boring if you've
spent time on Puget Sound, San Juan and Gulf Islands and myriad
destinations between Seattle and Alaska.

I categorize boats as having a hull and gunwhales, maybe I'm wrong.

Rafts don't pass as boats in my book.
