So what is the perfect Pontoon boat for the river, with say most of the trips being in Bullhead with several trips to Park Moabi and maybe one or two trips a year to Lake Havasu?
I am not sure when I will pull the trigger on this but if it happens it will probably be next year, so I want to start doing my research right now. I want something that will be easy to maneuver on the river but I also want something that will travel up river around 30 MPH. I was thinking of a tritoon in the 22' range with 200 HP or so. Most of the time it will probably have 2 to 4 people on it but it would be nice to have up to 10 people. I will probably leave it in our Marina so I need something durable with an outboard that will be able to rise completely out of the water with a really good mooring cover that will protect the boat. What say the RDP brain trust? What companies? What models? What size? What power? What am I missing? I am I on the right track?
