I bought a Torqeedo for the lean, mean, muskie chasing machine
(an 18 ft Grumman canoe) and it's a sweet piece of equipment.

I don't know diddly about pontoons but I can recommend the
Torqeedo without reservation (well, other than it's pricey).

$1500! Holy crapola! You're certainly correct about that!

/daytripper (who remembers when a new car sold for less ;-)

Yeah, it's not cheap but you don't have to buy and recycle a
$200 deep cycle marine battery every other year. Besides, it's
a cool, new gadget and I'm a total sucker for cool, new gadgets.


$200?!?! Every other year? Jeez, the Wal-Mart batteries I recommended
are about $65, and have either a two or three-year free replacement
warranty, prorated after that. Don't Torqeedos use batteries?
