| Pontoon Stuff Articles - Helpful tips and insight. This section will display certain articles and information relevant to pontoon boats and how to restore them, whether or not you should rebuild the one you've got and other bits of stuff we think you might find important.
Pontoon Boat Article 1: Should you restore a used
pontoon or buy a new pontoon boat.
Okay, so we are a bit biased on this one seeing as we make
it our business helping customers with the restoration of
their pontoons but we get this question a lot and wanted to
make a point in answering it truthfully. The quick
answer is, pontoon boats are basically two tubes with an
aluminum frame, wood deck, some aluminum railing and an
outboard motor. So long as your pontoon tubes, railing and
engine are in decent shape you can rebuild the pontoon boat
you already own or go out and buy an older pontoon, restore it
with our pontoon seating and pontoon parts and have a pontoon
boat that is
comparable to a pontoon you'd spend $15-$20,000 on from a
dealer. If you own an older pontoon that needs to be
fixed up you can spend between $1,000-$3000 upgrading it to
"new boat" status. You can usually buy a used pontoon
with worn out carpet and furniture with a trailer for less
than $3000, preferably less (try to get an older pontoon boat
for around $1500 if you need to replace everything)
Remember, you don't need to rebuild the pontoon yourself, hire
the neighbor kid to tear the deck off or have a local
upholstery shop put the boat back together, we'll ship your
new pontoon seats and supplies anywhere you'd like so don't
hesitate to employ a local handy man to do the project for you
if you don't want to do it yourself. Of course if you've
got some carpentry ability, you can tear down and rebuild the
entire pontoon boat in a weekend or so.
So, if that was the short answer here is our long winded answer...
In all honesty,
what we here at PontoonStuff.com are trying to do is create an
entirely new market within the pontoon boat industry. We
want to drive customers to restore the hundreds of thousands
of pontoon boats that are currently cast aside as "junk" or to
rebuild the used pontoon boats they already own rather than
going out and buying another used pontoon or spending the
money on a new pontoon boat. The goal of our business is
to convince you, our potential customers to build your own
pontoon boat using the framework off a older used pontoon
boat. Restoring a pontoon boat is actually a very simple
process and you don't even need to do it yourself, hundreds of
our customers have their new pontoon seating and accessories
shipped to a local upholstery shop or to a local handy man
whom they pay hourly to fix up their pontoon boats. The
process is pretty straight forward, most of the time required
to restore your pontoon boat is in the tear down process.
Removing the existing furniture, console, railing, side trim
and carpeting/decking are the most time consuming and require
the most effort. Now you may decide that your carpet and
deck are in fine shape and that all you need to do is replace
seating. If this is the case then re-building a pontoon
boat is very simply. Just remove the sun damaged or
rotted pontoon furniture and stick your new pontoon seats in
place. Be sure to clean up the carpeting first and if
you need help coming up with the best replacement pontoon
furniture layout just send us an email or fax with your
current layout and we'll come up with some sample furniture
designs. Now if you are going all out and replacing the
pontoon flooring, pontoon carpet, furniture and pontoon top
you'll have a little more time invested but in terms of money
saved you'd be amazed at what you can accomplish. Take a
look at some of the pontoon boats that have been restored by a
few of our customers click here for PONTOON BOATS.
It came as a big surprise to us when we first built this
website that the majority of our customers purchased large
quantities of our premium pontoon furniture. In all
honesty we were expecting to sell a few of our least expensive
seats to a lot of people but the opposite has happened, we've
ended up selling complete pontoon boat interiors to customers
and most have chosen our premium pontoon seats. What I
believe has happened is that people are beginning to recognize
more and more the opportunity available to them by simply
restoring their used pontoon boat rather than spending
$20,000+ on a new pontoon boat, either going into debt or
liquidating some assets to pay for a boat most pontoon boat
enthusiasts tend to use infrequently. While most pontoon
boaters use their pontoons for recreation and simply enjoying
some swimming and sun bathing with the family they do want a
boat that is clean, comfortable and new looking. We
provide our customers with all the pontoon supplies needed to
upgrade any older pontoon boat to "new boat" status, saving
you thousands of dollars in the process. Think about it,
if you have some carpentry ability or know someone who does,
you can re-build a used pontoon boat and make it every bit as
nice as many of the new pontoon boats found in dealer
showrooms for around 12% of the cost of new. For
example, the pontoon boat pictured in the link below cost less
than $2,100 to completely restore, a similar new pontoon would
cost you around $20,000, that's 10% of the cost of new.
If your engine, tubes and railing are in decent shape save the
money, restore your pontoon and take a trip around the world
with the $17,900 in savings!
