Pontoon Boat

My pontoon boat needs a jump to get started. I have a motor cycle battery charger. The kind that you plug into an electric scocket in your home. Will it work on the boat. Thanks for any info on the matter.

If your motorcycle battery is 12 volt, the charger will work. Check the fluid level in the battery first, add distilled water to cover the plates if any are exposed. Then be sure to connect it to the battery first then plug it into the wall socket. When done, unplug it from the wall socket, then disconnect it from the battery.

Presenting the music video for Pontoon Boat. Enjoy!

We live on a 400 acre lake and want to purchase a pontoon boat. There are so many makes and models, I would appreciate your candid responses. Also, do you have a potty place on the boat? THANKS!

Bennington makes a good boat...solid construction, heavy/quality flooring, durable marine carpeting, thick/heavy gauge pontoons, nice level of finish, all hardware is nice quality, etc.
I've had my 23' for about four seasons now and have had zero problems.

I am looking to buy a new pontoon boat but I am not clear on what type of steering is better, hydraulic ? postive response etc ?? whatever makes the boat track straighter and is easier to drive is what I want.. Help ?

Bird, don't make this over complicated. Pontoons boats are steered by turning the engines. They don't have rudders. Most pontoon boats come with the steering set-up ready to hook up to whatever engine you want.

Happy boating!

Regards,
Dan
