We went out on the new boat this morning... Pulled out of the slip at
9am, picked up a friend at his lake house at 10am, the went to
Spinners for brunch.

Ate brunch there, then cruised the lake, checked out a couple of
marinas up the river, messed around until late afternoon. Dropped him
off about 6pm, covered the boat up back at the slip about 7:30pm.
Saw an old Starcraft boat... all aluminum, it was pretty cool. Also
saw another Premier pontoon with a Yamaha 350 on it (!).
A 350? Damn! Can they be fitted with twins?

The local dealer has one... a 10' wide deck 28 footer... that has twin
225s on it. It seems like it was $72k. Pretty cool, it doesn't have
a swim ladder. It just has maybe 4 foot wide"steps" in the center of
the "transom" that lead down to the water.


I was thinking something along the lines of twin 115's would be better
than a 350 in the middle. Twin 225's must be beyond the rated limit!
