If you can haul that far, then think about the Official PontoonStuff Get-Together in Carlyle, IL Aug 5th-8th. It'll actually start on the 6th with a tour of the Wise company plant (we hope).

Wildcat Dude... Our trip to PCB is our annual trek. We usually have 15-20 of us. Kids, their husbands, grandkids and great-grandkids. We've been doing this for about 10 years.
That said; it would be nice if we could figure out a way to make it down for the get-together. Thanks for the invite.

Glad to see a few fellow Arkansans! I live in Jonesboro, Ar, about an hour west of Memphis, but I'm currently on an involuntary vacation in scenic southern Afghanistan. I plan on boating in Lake Norfork in the Arkansas Ozarks, mainly because I found a pontoon slip (uncovered) for $595 a year...

My father gave me the boat, he used it in the currituck sound untill the deck rotted out. It sat in his yard for about 3 years. He got it from his brother who bought it new in Tyler TX.
I plan to do a rebuild from the stringers up.
I am in Chesapeake Virginia

We are in Holland, Michigan. Haven't been in the water yet.  We bought the Pontoon with another family and are in the process of cleaning and getting it ready for the water. We will trailer it to whatever lake or river looks good.

I am in western Kentucky. We boat on the Kentucky Lake around the Aurora area next to the Land Between the Lakes national recreation area. Some of the best freshwater fishing in the US.

Lake Tansi (mispelled version of Tanasi, Indian tribe Tennessee was named for) is about 8 miles south of Crossville TN (The Golf Capital of TN) is about 550 acres and was finished about 1956. I'm lucky enough to have a house on the lake with a dock with a covered deck and workshop. The fishing is great and the boating is awesome. We have abundant wildlife including an eagle's nest at the upper end of our cove, deer, all kinds of birds, snakes, turtles and beaver.

Andover KS. We usually toon at El Dorado Lake. It's 45 min from driveway to boat ramp at Bluestem point. We have a dilapidated cabin on Dry Creek (Indianola River) which runs into Santa Fe lake. Santa Fe is a smaller city lake which is good for a quick spin around and for swimming. Dry Creek is a good fishing creek.

Hello from Brownsburg, IN (just West of Indy).
My father's had a 21' SunTracker for a couple years now and my wife and I just began the search for our first boat. Spending lots of time on the internet and in showrooms trying to learn what we like, what price range we're shooting for, best engine for us, etc.
Definitely have learned a lot so far and really love this site. There are definitely some interesting pontoon forums out there...
