Building of a I/O pontoon

[ChattyCathy]

Very cool man I have my boat but I am going to get a pontoon in the next year or so also, for those days I don't want to deal with everything that comes with my boat and just relax.

If you get some dimensions I bet my guy would cut and ship them if you are comfortable applying them

What would he all need? Length width where the doors are things like that?
I have the pontoon drawing up in CAD so it would be easy for me to make a detaield drawing for him.

I can apply them my self that not a big deal.

Awesome build man. Once you figure out a name it would look real nice painted down the side of the boat.

 

[TurboM700]

I think I came up with a name last night after a few drinks "tooned up"

Big tonka

That would be awesome.

only thing I would add is a little orange in the black railings, like a pinstripe leading to a sun or something, very nice build I just think its a little to black, but its not mine to make that judgement, only advice/comment? ha

LOL looks good man.

 

[TurboM700]

I thought about a 7.3 for about .1 secs then I realized that it would make to much power and I would win to many recorods. :hammer::hammer:

 

[ChattyCathy]

Any luck with Wozencraft?

Little Update

Havent done much latly on it. Been spending every weekend since June 1st on it. Have a good time with friends having a few motivational drinks:naughty:

Have gotten a few things finshed up
Picked up 4 of these tires and rims for 200 bucks on CL, so once I finish getting my two axles made I will have rims and tires for them.

Got a custom cover made. I can not tell you how nice this is to have. I use to spend 1-2hrs a week clean the seats and vacuuming up all the tree crap the fell in the carpet. Now when I'm done with her I sweep her out real quick and throw the cover on her.

Last thing I just finshed up last night was a swim platfourm. I sent it out to get HardCoated this morning so hopefully will have final assembly done by the end of the week.

Order one of these to get rid of my ugly old bimini top (fast forward to the 4:00min mark)

All in all it has had very little issues and I have only started the engine compartment on fire once.:doh:
