If I could afford a Cobalt and a pontoon, I probably just buy a much bigger Cobalt. Just me though. At some point my better half will tell me what to do.

^ agree and put a giant slide on the dock

My kids are 23&26 so a slide isn’t important. Giant pink flamingo however….. 😜

Someone near us recently advertised a 27' Crest pontoon with twin Mercury 400's on the back. Not so outrageous anymore. And there is a Playcraft on a lift near where we keep our boat that has 3 300 hp Mercury outboards on it. I'd love to spend a little time on one, but really like my 220 for just running around on the lake.

That’s it except all pink. I’ll try to remember a pic this weekend

It keeps us entertained because it’s so hard to get on from the water😂

Bingo. Hence why I have the R7. I can hold 12 adults easily and still navigate heavy chop and cruise comfortably at 30mph. And do all the water sports we want. I don’t care how many motors they strap to a pontoon. It’s still a pontoon.

still a toon lol. Also that is a 200K+ pontoon and still probably has a plywood deck that has to be finished every so many years. incredible what people will blow all their money on.
