You might also want to check out Hurricane. They have a pontoon "type" boat that actually has a fiberglass hull. A friend has one, and with a single 150 Honda it will cruise 45 with 8 people onboard. I was impressed that it did as well as it did with all the weight and only a 150 outboard.

I was on that very toon this weekend. Not sure I would want to be on it at speed though. Would take some major nads.

Have noticed a lot more pontoons on the river lately. Guess they are becoming trendy. They do serve the purpose of getting numerous amounts of people on the water.

A guy I know got a DCB and it had 5 hours on it a few trips ago when I saw it for the first time. While we were on the shore, He came over into our pontoon boat and sat down. He was there for about 10 seconds looking around and then he said, "I should have bought one of these." It was pretty funny.
