Zambroski Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hell, I'm gonna get me a toon as soon as I settle on a lake lot. Can load up the dogs and putz around with a grill going. Shit...damn things are expensive now. My buddy just paid 70k for his (he's an idiot though). My parents just sold their 13 year old for TWICE what they paid for it new!!!! Pontoons as an investment???? Weird. But...I've had my share of ski/go fast/jet skis along the way. Been there and DONE with that. Fuck boats! Damn money pits that end up with an ass fucking on the day you sell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my old man emailed me and told me that last week. I couldn't believe it...he couldn't either. Said he saw a few on Craig's like his and just priced it accordingly with a "don't care" attitude. First guy came out and counted out the cash on the spot. Course it was always housed and well maintained but still....2X what they paid for it 13 years ago???? Shit! Speaks volumes about their popularity. Well, with all but the hardcore liberal kayakers that don't own sleds but frequent sled websites. But nobody cares what they think anyway.

When I was making the boat circuit this Spring most of the dealers were telling me that pontoon sales were at least 2 to 1 higher to regular boats. I am curious why he considers pontoons the moped of the boat world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We traded our 88 on it. So we got 17 years on the 88 before trading. If you don't use them much and store them inside they tend to last. Lol. Pontoon boats. The moped of the water. Little kids and grandmothers can enjoy them. Everyone around here has a pontoon, a couple pwc's and then a ski boat. Fits every occasion on the lake. Never really use the kayaks or paddle boat. You ever see the newer tri toons with two or three 300 horse motors strapped to the back? Comes stock and with a warranty. Not really a grandmother's boat.

I'll take the toon parked at the dock of my cottage any day over having to negotiate with someone else and haul it where I need to go Do you need some investment advice, so you can have more FU money? Cause it seems like your failing. Bold: Don't forget dogs. Mine love it. Edited June 29, 2017 by ArcticCrusher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting older so they's rather cruise the lake with a drink in their hand than hurt themselves by strapping a board to their feet. Probably a lot of the "been there done that" thinking as the were the ones that pushed the sales of ski boats through the 70's and 80's. If you are having fun on the water with your pontoon then it's all cool. I just can't help picking on certain people in this forum. Don't take it personally.

I have to thank you .you made me remember I still have the first wake board I ever saw and owned. think it was like 89 or 90. have bought and sold many but never sold the first. have not used it in a decade but brining to a party tomorrow had dust so thick I could not see the Orange HQ. there will be a hand full of wake setters there and the kids will get a kick out of it .lol it is almost as big as the boards we surf behind the boats on now .

Ez ryder Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 you know you are looking at a antique when it says Hand built in the USA lol. I also still have a original Burton snowboard wood with a v tail . I bought it in big bear CA in the early to mid 80s. brought it to MN and no ski place would let me use it on there hills fuckers . flash forward 13 yrs or so years they all get 1/2 pipes so I take my shorty twin tip skis to the pipe and literally got in a fight with 2 punks who knocked me over for skiing on there pipe? lol they thought I would just let it go 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
