    Prayer Request Pontoon boat looking to buy


    wife bought a condo on Lake St Louis and wants me to get a pontoon boat for family and pulling the grandkids around on tubes. have a two man bass boat with trolling motor and that fits me just fine as have a couple of buddies with bass boats and like that they have to fool with them. But here I go.

    after looking at the dozens and dozens on craigslist looks like I would target 18-22 foot boats with trailer. want one set up for fishing of course, not just cruising, with trolling motor, LW rod storage, Fish finder. 40-90 HP. not too old but would consider anything if set up nicely and not too many hours on it. Or I could get one reasonable enough not set up that I could put TM on it and room to add fishing chairs.

    Would like they want to get rid of it and want a good home so they will give it to me but not likely. PM me if you have one or know someone who does.

    I've never owned one but I would look at the Avalon 23' quad fish looks like a nice boat with 4 fishing seats rated for a 125 hp put a new Mercury 4 stroke 115 on it and you would be set.

    A couple of my neighbors have center console Pontoons. They are nice. Fishing seats fore and aft. Might have to hock the condo to buy one though.

    bought a 21 foot Lowes fishing barge w 60 Merc 4 stroke EFI from CDC member! two fishing seats forward and back, LW and FF with nice bench and table, perfect for what I want. Which is to catch crappie, trolling or longlining but also cruising around and pulling tubes with family. I have always fished out of bass boats but this will be good for all my needs.
