My lil '65 Pacific Mariner, Dagger, just wasnt big enough for the 4 of us. We picked up a '78 Bayliner Cascade Tri-hull with a 115 2 stroke. Much more room and much more stable on the water.

Here are the floats I'm currently bobbing the waves with… A 1996-21.5ft Coho 4.3 Chev. w/8hp Honda kicker, Lowrance Sounder/GPS and Duel Downs. The smaller boat is a 2002 14ft Crestliner Angler w/30hp Merc, and bow mount Minn-Kota & Cannon Manual Downrigger. (Finally Paid For My Gosh ) Retirement is lurking.....

Now that you have a post, you should see an Attach button on it. Click it, and post photos that are smaller than 250k (otherwise they appear as links). You always have to save your post before adding pics.

:-$ 16.5 Just big enough to make it change classes. It doesnt mean much difference except I need to carry a throwable floatation device as well now.

Mine is a 88 tracker bass boat - 1800FS with a 150hp Black Max oil injected outboard with a 70# Maxxum that I just upgraded to. I also had the seats redone this year also. It has been a good boat so far. It is one if the last fiberglass models before switching the name to Nitro.

Working on that now. Thought it was. Trying to edit out the picture and add the correct size. OK...was able to fix above.

Now for our 20ft. 1993 Crestliner that we have added a third pontoon from the local Metalite Industries Inc. We also sold the '93 40hp Ev and purchased a '93 140hp Susuki to add onto the new 22' center pontoon. We also added a Minn Kota auto pilot on the front. Four Scotty's and lots of rod holders, front poratable hard panel windshield, leather bucket seats, storage, work station, changed floor plan...

Nice, whats the idea with the 3rd pontoon? Load capacity? Stability?

Someone might wanna wake Doug up though, looks like he's got a fish-on.

I took the pictures. That is my business partner in www.GreatGreenSolutions.com :colors:
We added the chairs for obvious reasons. :cheers: It almost feels like cheating. :bounce: Remember little boats and knees?
The third pontoon is for the reasons stated by Ra and the ability to add more power. As an example of needing more load capacity; we take people steelhead fishing just for fun. When one big guy is fighting a fish, another big guy ready with net, yet the other spectating and this old fat guy is taking pictures as far back as possible to get smiles and action...the back would dip into the river a bit. Not now.:cheers: Family & Fishing Pictures You can view more at that location by refreshing the page to get random new pictures for both family and fishing each time you refresh, or click the view more at your specific desire and go through 1-...

We also added storing and fuel capacity with the third pontoon. LoonyTunes also has two planer poles and a generator. Just about anything we want to have or take off with this platform.
