New Boat

[Roland]

Well boys, I finally pulled the trigger and ordered a new Pontoon fishing barge. Really had it in my mind to buy a G3 208f pontoon when one last visit to a local Bennington dealer changed my mind. Turns out Bennington is now making a 20 footer to compete with G3, Suntracker, etc. It's the 20 SFi. The one I ordered will have a 75 4 stroke yamaha on it, 25" toons, 3 fishing chairs, vinyl flooring ( believe it or not, vinyl flooring cost more than carpet ) am / fm / cd, tilt wheel and a wrap around chaise lounge & table. Was actually able to get this for about the same $ as the G3.. not exactly the same, but close enough for me. Boats being built as we speak and should be here in about 2 to 3 weeks. By the way, I've never even owned a row boat before so this is a huge deal for me... I know it's starting to get cool out, and maybe by the time it gets here will be too cool to take out.. what the heck, I'll just sit in it in my driveway til springtime rolls around... can not wait....... thank you guys for all your help and advice. This started out as a "let's buy a used bass boat for a couple of grand"... it quickly escalated to a "new" 17 foot panfish boat, to the new Bennington fishing barge.... One of my buddies who owns a very expensive triton let me in on a little secret....
