It all depends on your motivation I guess..... <br /><br /> I would advise against a raft like suggests. I have used one before and thought a pontoon was much, much better. You sit higher in a pontoon and can cast more easily, you don't drag as much, you have more storage, you can maneuver the craft more easily, have more storage if you get one that has a rear deck, can mount an anchor that is more functional and so on. There are far more advantages to a pontoon boat than a raft. While a raft may not blow as much as a pontoon boat, they sure aren't as easy to control in the wind. For a personal watercraft, a pontoon boat wins. <br /><br /> If you want to try one of those rafts, go buy a cheap one person raft, cut a section out of the floor and give it a shot. You can make a seat out of some sheets of thick polystyrene to raise you up. Then borrow or rent a pontoon boat and compare the two. I am sure you will chuck the raft and go with a pontoon after trying both.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2223350480827565309-514298889577734763?l=all-pontoon-boats.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>boathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506672867079168433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2223350480827565309.post-7928458105845410892007-05-11T11:24:00.000-07:002007-05-17T11:27:36.534-07:00<i>I just got back from the local stocker pond. It's a peaceful place in the middle of the week, and I wanted to try out my new pontoon boat. I caught a limit (6), which I just finished cleaning. The boat worked great.</i> <br /> <br /> What did you get for a pontoon boat? As a treat for myself for having spent 1 1/2 weeks in eastern Nebraska (95 degrees and 80% humidity during my youngest daughter's outside wedding at Arbor Lodge with me in a tux) I bought a Fat Cat float tube and some Force Fins. I have a Waterskeeter pontoon which I really like but wanted something lighter that I could quickly throw in the pickup and could store under the topper without deflating. Supposedly, the Fat Cat will float me higher in the water than my "U" tube which I'm looking forward to. I finally got caught up so will try the tube and fins out today.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2223350480827565309-792845810584541089?l=all-pontoon-boats.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>boathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506672867079168433noreply@blogger.com
