A question for you pontoon users. I got a chance to use one once and
it felt like I was rowing in mud. The owner later claimed it was
underinflated. Was he right or giving me a line since he wanted to
sell it to me?

....I suppose that it could have been underinflated Peter, but it seems to
me that (a) you would have noticed the semi-flaccid pontoons, you know,
shrinkage and wrinkles, or (b) if this guy was trying to sell it to you he
should have pumped it up for your demo. The new one I have now fairly
scoots across the water with minimal effort on my part. These were
Flyfish's pontoon boats we were using which have 8 ft pontoons and weigh
around 65# empty, yet I had no problem whatever rowing mine. I'm absolutely
sold on P/boats and use mine more than my power boat. If you're looking by
brand name, his are WaterSkeeters and mine is a TU Madison which weighs in
at 46# and has 7 ft pontoons. Cabelas carries both I think.
