Parts For Pontoon Boat

Deal includes controls & owner will set up a run test. What should I be aware of. Owner indicates compression is within 5 lbs. on each cyl. & low hours (probably driven to church on Sunday too) Did this motor have any weak areas or problems I should look for.? Are parts available for an engine this old if something should go awry? Thanks in advance for your input.

I hope it's cheap. 80's is getting a bit old now. I had an early 80's 150 black max , the only problem I had was with the gearbox so check that carefully , especially if the seller means a run test in a tank and not on a boat.

I have been researching for hours on the internet for information regarding key market sectors of pontoon boats. I am doing a group project and my part is to find this information. I need to know the Age,Income, Geography,Demographics of the consumers. I am not looking for the information to be posted on here just a way to find the information. Of the sites I did find they want you to pay for them which is not something I want to do.

This guy has a Pontoon boat,trailer and motor that I would like to buy but he said the lady he bought it from will not give him the titles, so he's selling or parting it all off for cash or trade. How do I find out about this, I sure don't want to buy anything that's stolen!

As of current state law in Arkansas, boats/PWC's do not have titles. They have ownership through the boat registration.

However, if the pontoon was purchased in a different state than Arkansas, most likely the boat and the trailer will have a title.

However, all trailers registered in Arkansas do have titles.

It is the current owner's fault for not demanding the trailer title and the boat registration be signed over to him BEFORE paying for it.

Unfortunately, you should avoid this advertisement all-together. An owner without legitimate ownership paperwork of boat registration (Arkansas) and trailer title is not worth the headache buying from.


Shop around a little bit more and be much more patient, if you are willing to pay a reasonable price for average quality condition, you should find something that suits your needs WITH proper paperwork.

Keep in mind if you wish to do any skiing, kneeboarding, serious tubing, or wakeboarding in the future, you should NOT pick a pontoon boat. Pontoons do only one thing well, ferry people around and that's about it.

An early 1990's deck boat with a 90HP or more engine in good condition with passenger capacity of 8 would probably fit your requirements well. Not to mention you can actually tow people with it.

I just purchased a pontoon boat with a 1997, 90HP, 2 stroke Mercury/Tracker outboard with a bad powerhead, that I'll probably just part out.

I've found a old fishing rig at a good price that has a running 2002, 40HP, 2 stroke Mercury/Tracker outboard that I am going to purchase mostly for the motor.

Should the controls already on the pontoon boat work with the smaller motor? or will I have to change the controls out?

I've only seen pictures of the 40HP, and they both have tilt/trim and the controls look real similiar... only the one on my pontoon has quicksilver stamped on it and the other doesn't (if that makes a difference).

Yes, your controls, electric, throttle/ shift and steering will work just fine. Mercury did not change the electric harness plug till 2006. The other option you have is to replace the powerhead on the 90 with a Mercury reman. See what the cost difference would be.
Don't forget, you will need to reprop the 40 for the pontoon boat.

They are pontoon type boats where you can use a trolling motor. I think they are called bass cats or something like that.
I live in the south central part of illinois, would prefer something from that area!

Its called a Pelican Bass Raider 10E Pontoon Fishing Boat and if you have a D i c k's Sporting Goods store, Cabela's, or Bass pro shop they all sell similar boats.
