Overpowered?
Overpowered?
I’m all for excessive HP, but powering a tri tube with twin 400s on a 3,900 acre lake seems a bit excessive, no?

Re: Overpowered?
All I can say is “get-cha some!” It’s hard to make a pontoon non-gay, so maybe this is his way of trying to make it cool?

I know a guy who had one with twin 400s. However I was out on my 22' donzi this summer and found a guy with a 27' tritoon with twin 500s. He was getting 70mph out of that monster

Re: Overpowered?
No such thing as over-powered. If anything this thing is under powered, should have gone/ w 500R's

Re: Overpowered?
I've been passed by several pontoons with twins hanging off the back. They cruise by me like they are in their living room. But they also cost 250k.

Re: Overpowered?
We all love power, but I sure hope the marine architect got it right on weight distribution- Put all that weight on the back of a toon type, hit a strong headwind at 70 and watch her flip or stuff the bow. I wouldn't run it, well at least not the 500's
