I've searched everywhere for both these things and am having no luck... thanks!!Where can I find a tranvilaquist doll and/or a slide for my pontoon boat, to buy, online?
Do you mean ventrioquist doll? When I checked Ebay, they had 236 listed. You can also try this site:

As for the slide for your boat, I don't think they make slides specifically for boats. I'd try a pool store.

What is the minimum horsepower motor required for water skiing/tubing behind a pontoon boat?
my fam. use to have a poontoon with 45 hp, and it pulled ski-ers fine, but it did not pull tubing as well. if you want to have a fun ride (for example, going outside of the wake tubing) you are probably going to need a 95+ hp engine on the boat. before my family got a speed-boat, our pontoon stalled and wouldnt start because 45 hp wasnt enough to pull a tuber. hope this helps.What is the minimum horsepower motor required for water skiing/tubing behind a pontoon boat?
I would say at least a 100 hp...What is the minimum horsepower motor required for water skiing/tubing behind a pontoon boat?
how big of a boat? how heavy is the boat? boat loaded with your crew ? lots of variables involved. you don't need a v6 (good wakeboard boats have 8 cylinders)....I've only seen outboard pontoons boats. deck boats are like a pontoon but have the I/O or v drive configurations. Between 125-175HP seems to be the norm I see out on the lake. though I saw a triple decker 36' pontoon the other day screaming accross the water because it had twin 250HP pushing it.....thats power.What is the minimum horsepower motor required for water skiing/tubing behind a pontoon boat?
I would definately have a big V6 anything smaller you couldn't get someone up or go fast enough with people in the boat. if you have any more questions you can reply back.

I am looking to buy a used pontoon boat at least 20 feet long.?
Ofcourse I will make sure the boat floats and the engine runs, but are there any particular brands i should stay away? Brands I should look into? Common problems? Any advice would be great, thanks.I am looking to buy a used pontoon boat at least 20 feet long.?
1st off, unless you are a marine mechanic with experience in the specific make and model of whatever power its, you arent qualified to make sure it runs right and will continue to do so for a long time (with proper maintence).
take it to a qualified marine mechanic and have a mechanical inspection performed. its cost about $100 and it comes out of your pocket, but better to spend a $100 and find out it needs THOUSANDS in repairs without being the own stuck owning it.
and if it passes, its time for you to make sure it floats and drives right. then you can safely purchase it.
brands, to a certain point that are all the same. many of them are the same, just different names and different layouts on the same basic structure from teh same assembly line.
merc is the number one marine motor brand, for many good reasons.
i would try to find something in the 20XX years, pontoons are mostly aluminum and can last forever, but everything exposed to sun (seats and carpets) will detoriate, and the deck is usually wood which will fall apart after 2+ decades of moisture (all fairly easily fixed to create a like new boat though).I am looking to buy a used pontoon boat at least 20 feet long.?
Check local marinas or the classified ads. There are also auction sites that sell boats, but unless you can transport it home buy local.

Can I use davits to lift a pontoon boat?
I have davits behind my house i live on a salt water canal can I use the davits to lift my pontoon boat out of the waterCan I use davits to lift a pontoon boat?
It depends on the overall weight of the Pontoon boat and the "Capacity" of the Davit. Most Davits have a weight capacity of 1500 lbs. Since most Pontoons exceed this weight, it's not likely. You'll need to have a boat lift.Can I use davits to lift a pontoon boat?
I saw a guy lift his 22 ft pontoon boat with davits
But eventually the pontoon began to bend and eventually a crack formed near the back.
they said it was from the weight of the engine and the boat swinging from the davits.
He now has a system where he drives the boat onto 2 planks this supports the hull
and he lifts the boat up and sets it on a rack.Can I use davits to lift a pontoon boat?
No reason why not, as long as they are strong enough to lift the weight.flyff

Can you ski on a pontoon boat?
I know you wouldn't go fast, but can you ski / innertube / wakeboard? And by Pontoon Boat I also mean Party Boat.Can you ski on a pontoon boat?
Yeah, of course! It's not as thrilling as it would be behind a smaller boat, but it's still possible.

How can I build my own pontoon boat? I was thinking I could use 50 gal. drums, but where do I get them?
You should be able to find some at your local feed mill or at some type of salvage yard. You can also try calling different factories in your area and see if they have any. most of your tool and die shops should have some. Just be sure that when you weld them together that nothing flamable has been stored in them.How can I build my own pontoon boat? I was thinking I could use 50 gal. drums, but where do I get them?
Junior is on the right track,but even sone kind of soaps can ignite!Also if you plan on using bottom paint on them,you'll have to prime them. Good Luck!How can I build my own pontoon boat? I was thinking I could use 50 gal. drums, but where do I get them?
This question scares the he!! out of me as did the answers given.
Before you start building a boat check with the USCG to see what regulations must be met if there are any. Might want to check your state regulations as well.
And please...do a great deal of research on how to build her! Can't think of anything worse than taking her out, hit a wake, have a weld break between drums and have her go down with you, friends or family or both onboard. You're definitely going to want to have plenty of safety gear on board!!!
Consider this as a much safer alternative:

I was meandering on EBay last wee and ran across 2 sets of pontoons for sale you may try their for an exelant beginning

I used cut bait off Cape San Blas and the government cut at St. George and have done pretty well, some hammerhead around 4 ft., some dogfish and one that was either a bull shark or a lemon. I catch withing or mullet and cut them in half and cast past the sand bar.Where is a good shark fishing place in florida i live in gainesville and have a pontoon boat?
