Punch line: and they all agreed they were never going tubing with Grandpaw again.
That's insane!
I thought toons were all about cruising around at low speeds and enjoying the day, not hauling ##%# around the lake and setting speed records. Lol
I wonder how fast that bad boy will go. I'm thinking maybe 70 mph. What do you guys think?

I saw in a boating magazine a few back. A tritoon with twin 502 big block chevy's. Article said it ran 72 mph. It was a about 28 foot long and at speed maybe 3 feet of it was in the water. I would love to take a ride in this 700hp. Toon
Saw a video last year on one up in Missouri that set a new speed record of just under 100. Two different guys keep swapping the record back and forth. Can't remember what power they were though.
Saw one years ago at Quachita.. 24' with a Yamaha 300 on it.. Guy said it would run 82 on GPS...
I like, just wouldn't like the fuel bill!!!
Blue I think that guy was dreaming. Specks Ranger 522 has a 300 on it and it won't run 82 mph. Can't believe the ole toon is more hydrodynamic than a Ranger. It would still be a lot of fun to race around Sardis a couple times during peak of spawn. Lol

If any of you get the chance to ride in it and you see someone crappie fishing, don't forget to go between them and the bank.
I didn't know they made 350's. I'll have to put 3 on my boat.
Aloha makes a 32' tritoon that handles twin 350's. They claim it will do 70 + mph. Wake Board racks and all, bout 125,000!!!!! That thing can flat out pull some cranks!!! Lol
sounds scary to me
Y'all need to check out playcraft pontoons. They just finished one with trip toons and twin 700hp supercharged merc inboards
You'd be skiing a pair of arms each time! Double rooster tail and trimmed up on the very back of the toons!Would love a video!!
Yall not thinking about trading that Ranger are you.
Not a chance!Quote:

WOW! Some people have more money than brains! I missed out on both, LOL
I want no part of that thing.
We tubed behind on with a 250 one time... Will never get behind another one with a motor that big. It would only run 45 or so but would get up to speed in a hurry!
I lost my wedding ring tubing behind a similar rig. I was with a big group and half of us were in another, more traditional and tame pontoon and had pulled up on the beach. The guy with the big tri-toon with the huge motor asked if any of us wanted to tube. He was afraid to beach his boat because of the weight, I swam out to the tube and climbed on. He said when Im ready to get off just give him the sign and he would make a big turn and try to swing the tube out as close to the beach as he could safely get it and I can just barrel roll off the tube Navy seal style. I did just that and by the time I swam back to the beach I was out of the water about 30 seconds before my wife noticed my ring was missing. All I can figure is it slipped off when I jumped from the tube.
