So I sold my cat and I'm looking for a pontoon. I narrowed my choices down to 25-28 bennington's, playcraft's, and southbay's 2008 or newer. I would prefer I/O but am open minded. If you know of any for sale let me know. I'm looking to buy in the next 3 weeks. I'm going to look at 3 this weekend but want to see everything out there. Thanks in advance.

That boat is one on my list. I don't know a lot about the southbay's and its a little more than what I want to spend but is definitely one im looking at. How do southbay's compare ride and performance wise to bennington's and playcraft?

All great choices you have there. Dont forget to consider Manitou V-Toon and Premier PTX technology.

I am close to pulling the trigger too and can't decide.

The nice thing about the Bennington is that the second owner gets the same warranty for 10 years. My Playcraft warranty ends with the original owner.

That's good to know about the warrant. That's one bad playcraft you've got there.

I might take you up on that offer. I'm going to be up there next weekend. I'm looking at a couple of boats and would like to look at yours. I hear they're great boats. Thanks for the offer.
